Why let logic or 'legal things' get in the way of handcuffs or a trip downtown. Just look at those 1st Amendment auditor vids where people get cuffed for like videoing a post office lobby by Joe and Jimmy 'shiny badge' fresh out of training. It's the times we live in...
I'm getting "triggered" more lately that a Christian man should. It's like Satan is using this insane mess to corrupt my heart. I know that God is love, and the hate is a product of evil. Is my mental state of mind one of hate when I see the Authoritarian Nazi police storming toward peaceful protesters with truncheons raised, and kicking downed individual free citizens? Is that even wrong to strongly detest, and have strong feeling toward people that abuse other people.
I have never had hate in my heart, and I am struggling with this. I ask myself, if I had the power kill, or harm these abusers, would I do so. If I had the power of a Hitler, or a Goebbels, where would I stop with people like Gates. Would I be any better than Stalin if I had his power? I don't think so, but if we let hate drive us, where would we stop.
I can tell you this, when I see a bully Nazi police who thinks his uniform, and badge give him special powers to bully, beat, and abuse people, especially older, and females it makes me want to follow him home and whip his ass, see just how tough he is one on one. I often think that is what needs to happen is let these people know that we'll catch up with them later, if you know what I mean.
I have the same feelings, but I do not believe it has anything to do with feeling less Christian.
There are many passages in the Bible where even Jesus got angry.
And if it is Satan tempting you it would be what you do with your anger. Ephesians 4:26 states be angry but do not sin. I would think following someone home and whooping his ass would fall into that category.
On the other hand attacking someone who is attacking another and whooping their ass would, in my opinion, not be a sin.
God made us human, not saints, and we will have many hateful and angry and vengeful feelings throughout our lives. It is what we do with those feelings that matters to God.
We are at a time in this world where we all are being tested and as angry, depressed, and hateful as we feel we must keep our feelings in check and pray like our life depends on it; Because, it does. 🙏
