The Newness in
Christ’s Message…
"You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye
and a tooth for a tooth.' But I say to you, offer no resistance to one who is
evil. When someone strikes you on (your) right cheek, turn the other one to him
as well. If anyone wants to go to law with you over your tunic, hand him your
cloak as well. Should anyone press you into service for one mile, go with him
for two miles. Give to the one who asks of you, and do not turn your back on
one who wants to borrow. (Matthew 5: 38-42)

No resistance to one who is evil…
·
Turning the other cheek…
·
Handing over your cloak, as well…
·
Going the extra mile…
·
Not turning of one’s back from the needy…
Are these the values we live by…?
