Romans 12:19-21 ESV
[19] Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” [20] To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” [21] Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
I had some enemies do some messed up things to me. Kept my cool but kinda resentful that they got away with what they did without any repercussions. Then COVID hit and they all took the shot ... God's vengeance is absolutely terrifying and implacable. Stay humble frens, and strive to forgive and have charity for others, even your enemies. I would never want even my worst enemy to fall under the vengeance of God but desire their conversion and salvation.
God is omniscient (all-knowing), omnipotent (all-powerful), and omnipresent (in all places). He sees the full picture including what's in the hearts and minds of men, and He delights in justice.
Vengeance is God's, because only God is capable of dishing it out fairly.
