This one is for the Fed boys watching.
Romans 12: 17-21
Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
Us men are unable to properly administer vengeance, for it rarely corrects behavior, and it frequently brings forth further violence. With our imperfections, it is not our burden to cast vengeance onto those who wrong us, for only the Lord knows how, when, and what degree this karma shall be enacted upon those who've gravely sinned.
I admit I've struggled with this for the longest time. But since I came upon this passage it really shined a light. As much as many of us want to go forth and lynch each of these corrupt people who've ruined our livelihoods and the lives of children especially, we should not let it obstruct our faith in the Lord to make it all right.
Bible in one hand, popcorn in the other. As the white hats work deeply with the Lord, there's no reason for us to even get involved other than voting and meming.
You fed boys watching our forums, you'll get your comeuppance. Just you wait.
I don't think Jesus wept for the Pharisees....
Also it says in Malachi 1 starting at verse 2
“I have loved you,” says the Lord. But you say, “How have you loved us?” “Is not Esau Jacob's brother?” declares the Lord. “Yet I have loved Jacob 3 but Esau I have hated. 4 If Edom says, “We are shattered but we will rebuild the ruins,” the Lord of hosts says, “They may build, but I will tear down, and they will be called ‘the wicked country,’ and ‘the people with whom the Lord is angry forever.’”
