No I have not.
To me that is the toughest commandment in Christianity.
I feel that if that is to be done, it will have to be done supernaturally.
That is to say, in the power of God.
How about you?
Do you forgive your enemies?

You should love your enemies because it was written in the bible and if you don't, you are not a true Christian.
Mat 5:44 But say unto you, Love your enemies,bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Mar 12:31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
Luk 6:27 But say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
Luk 6:28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
Luk 6:29 And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also.

It's gonna be a lie if I said ya but Christianity is all about trying to be perfect but no body is perfect. So try to love your enemy by just forgiving him or not replying to his insults. So at the end of the day if you don't have hatered in ur heart you'll be trying ur best. let me ask u the same question Do you love thy enemy?

I love how people find the hardest commandments to live by and then ask christians are they being faithful... It's like asking... "Have you been as perfect as Christ since your were born or since you were saved?" My answer is always "No"... I mess up a lot.

No, I am afraid not. I have a lot to learn about love. I love 1 Cor 13:- It tells about love. : )

Not always. I would hate to lie about it and add one more sin to the list. Peace be with you

Of course not we are humans just like everyone else. We are not as good as we should be (we are humans).

No. I admit that I've failed to love liberals.
