Matthew 5:38-48
“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 anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Why?
Love enemy and pray for those who persecute you is very hard to do it. But this is the teaching from Jesus Christ.
Be perfect, as our heavenly Father is perfect. Love of Jesus beyond our thought and imagination. But this is true love.

以牙還牙提醒人害人是要付代價的,有時代價超過你所得到的。
耶穌提醒不用報復來對敵人,永無止境的報復。只有以愛來待人。消滅敵人最好的方法是使他變為朋友,變為家人。
溫柔的人不爭,我們不是都沒有了。主必為我們伸冤,必承受地土。聖經的教導是以溫柔、以愛來回報。爭,抵抗,永遠有無止的敵人。

How?
