Sometimes I feel like taking my own pound of flesh when people offends me, why must I not pay back! Alas the word of God will caution me and I feel strong pain for sometimes; later the peace of God overflows my heart. Matthew 5: 44-45

So God will touch thier heart to love people

Vengeance belongs to God, allow Him fight for you.

Vengeance, like greed, is a heavy load. Your heart cannot pump blood and bear grudges at the same time, beside losing precious sleep unnecessarily. So my religion teaches me.

Because if you hate them back you are gonna become as weak as they are. When you love people that hate you you automatically become so much more powerful. Besides, it takes so much energy to hate someone/people...who needs that wahala.

Because Christianity is the true religion of peace ... We let our God fight for himself and fight for us

Unlike Islam that doesn't know what peace means

Nna amarokwamu o

Don’t be fooled man! Looking at the Bible from a logical aspect, it is infact a sin to pray for your enemy.

A case in point, if it was normal and Godly to pray for ones enemy, why didn’t God forgive and pray for lucifer? Why has he made his current existence a temporal purnishment, because the Bible tells us that he (God) has a special retirement home of purnishment for lucifer (the lake of fire)?

Another instance is seen in the case of Jesus Christ. Do you think if he, Jesus was not choosen, he would have tolerated all the pain bestowed on him? Remember at some point, he said Eli Eli lamasabachtani (God please spare me of this sacrifice/purnishment). Then again he said, God forgive them for they know not what they are doing.

At the bolded, if all the pain inflected on Jesus were not in fulfillment of the Godly sacrifice, do you think he would have begged for forgiveness on their behalf, or have you forgotten what happened to all those who attempted to kill Jesus before he learnt about his purpose

I don’t want to argue this seriously

Cos we know the orchestrator of all hate - the devil. So, we separate the hater from his hate, knowing that he is being influenced.

Should they?

You pray for the success of your enemy. What if they are seeking to destroy you, then you will have prayed for your own destruction. God forbid!!

You just show your bigotry, intolerance, shallow-mind and that you are brainwashed. No religion is better than the other.
And you'll now come to preach to me! Your Christianity is insanity.

BTW, I am a "Christian"

Simple cos we should

Forgiveness means that many criminals in society will never get justice and it encourages criminality.
You can see how useless Christianity is in 21st century!

Thank God for my realistic religion, I am allowed to avenge any wrong done to me equally.
If you slap me I am allowed to slap you back! I wonder how Many Christians would turn the other cheek?

Because God commands it.

Romans 12:17-21 ESV

Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. 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.” 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.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Matthew 5:44 E

But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
Ephesians 4:31-32 ESV

Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
Ephesians 4:32 ESV

Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
Luke 6:27 ESV

“But I say to you who hear, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

WHY SHOULD CHRISTIANS PRAY AT ALL WHEN GOD ALREADY KNOWS WHAT'S BEST FOR EVERYONE?

GOD ALREADY MADE OUT HIS PLANS SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME, SO PRAYING AND ASKING FOR THINGS IS SIMPLY YOU TELLING GOD TO CHANGE HIS ALREADY MADE DIVINE PLANS JUST FOR WHAT YOU WANT,
AND THAT IS VERY RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL.



PRAYING IS JUST AN ACT OF DISBELIEF AND DOUBTS, AND THEREFORE A LACK OF FAITH.


PS: YOUR PASTOR, WHOEVER HE IS, IS JUST A CONMAN WHO PROBABLY DOESN'T EVEN BELIEVE IN GOD. BUT YOU'RE HIS MONEY MAKING MACHINE SO HE HAS TO KEEP TELLING YOU THOSE STORIES ON THE PULPIT.

HE ASKED ME TO THANK ALL OF YOU ON HIS BEHALF, HE'LL BE ROCKING A NEW SUIT THIS SUNDAY BECAUSE OF YOUR FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS. THANKS.

The message of love is what some minds can't comprehend.. The best way to win a war is LOVE..

It was made for slaves, so the slaves would feel hating their master would be hating God. `just let it be. God has a plan. Be patient. Endure'

That's why Nigerian Christians are such docile imbeciles. The 'Man of God' has taken the place of the slavemaster. One who hates to think for himself, will have others do his thinking.
