“If Jesus Tells Us to Love Everybody, Does That Include the Devil?” (The Patrick Madrid Show)

Spending time with Patrick Madrid every day? “How sweet it is!” 🍯 He kicks off this podcast episode with a simple request: “Tell your friends about the show!” Seriously, spread the word like a good Catholic evangelist. 📲📢

Now, for the Main Event: Is it OK to Hate the Devil?

Julian from San Jose calls in with a question from his son, Nico (who, by the way, sounds like a great kid).If Jesus tells us to love everybody, does that include the devil?

Patrick’s answer? No.

We love humans because they can be saved. 🕊️

Even the worst people have a chance at redemption through Christ. ✝️

But fallen angels, including Satan, can never change. They’re locked in their decision to reject God… forever.

Their whole goal is to drag us down to hell. 😬

To explain this, Patrick gives a clever analogy. Would we try to teach animals about God? 🐶📖 Nope, because they literally can’t understand. It’s pointless. Same with loving the devil. There’s no purpose to it.

And Then… The Mustache Moment 😂

Before Julian hangs up, he tells Patrick that his son Nico loves Patrick’s “lip sweater.” Apparently, we have a new term for a mustache now. 🤣

Final Thoughts:

Love people.

Don’t love the devil.

Respect the power of a solid lip sweater. 🏆
