Scripture… As We Live It #256

Posted by on Apr 14, 2013 in as we live it, scripture | 2 comments

This is the 256th passage in “Scripture… As We Live It.”

Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. But, sue them if they attempt to take away your rights as an American – I mean, Roman – citizen. (Romans 12:14 re-mix)

(Please read the first post for an explanation of this series.)

    I have always thought this! Nee said a Christian should not be afraid, and should expect, to be taken advantage of.

    “sue them”? Surely “shoot them”, although anachronistic, would be more like how many American evangelicals today threaten to live this Scripture.
