Matthew
5:38-42
Christ
Jesus said:
38
“You have heard that it was said,
'eye
for eye, and tooth for tooth.
But
I tell you, Do not Resist an Evil person.
If
someone strikes you on the right cheek,
Turn
to him the other also.
40
And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic,
Let
him have your cloak as well.
41
If someone forces yo to go one mile,
Go
with him two miles.
42
Give to the one who asks you,
And
do not turn away
From
the one who wants to borrow from you.
(Matthew
5:38-42)
As
Christians we have complete confidence in the Lord.
So
that what we are confronted with in this life is of the Lord.
Therefore,
we can act the opposite of the way the World acts
Knowing
that we live before God and not the World.
For
us, God makes all things work together for our good,
Whether
they seem good or bad at the time.
We
are Witnesses in this World
Of
the reality of another Kingdom,
The
Kingdom of God.
It
is that Kingdom we serve.
