>>18043965>39Such pilpul, you're making things up now lol
Being smitten back then meant being smitten back - Jesus taught different, to not resist evil and to walk away from a fight.
>40If you're sued for $50,000, give them $60,000. Get it now?
>41Pilpul again, you know that statement isn't true. It's saying that if someone asks for your help or puts you to work, go the extra mile, don't just do the bare minimum.
>>18043966>43,44Actually, those verses are state what we should do INSTEAD of getting back at them, or as you say "punishing" them.
>45Sure. Ye shall reap what ye sow.
>46, 47If you were angry with your brother and wanted to whoop his ass, but then decide to forgive him, would you still whoop his ass?
>48Knowing there is forgiveness is not a free pass to sin. Don't play with God. You MUST repent when you know you've done wrong. Be perfect as your Lord in heaven is perfect. We all make honest mistakes, but once you know you know and should not commit the sinful deeds.
If you know it is wrong to murder or to strike your enemies, but instead should turn the other cheek, do you think God will forgive you easily for doing what you know is wrong? Do you not remember that Adam and Eve were cast from the garden of eden for doing what they know is wrong?
Turn away from wickedness. Your eternal salvation is at stake.
