TODAY’S MESSAGE & THOUGHT
Paul the apostle wrote the letter of Romans to the saints in Rome. The apostle warns that we are not to repay evil for evil.
Paul wants the Roman believers to repay evil with good, instead of evil for evil. In fact, in the following verse (Romans 12:18), Paul implores the Romans to be at peace with all people, as far as it is up to them. If at all possible, be at peace. To retaliate in kind as an act of revenge won’t bring peace. To steal from someone who stole from you is not an effective strategy for producing peace with that person. Paul lays out a different plan, quoting Proverbs 25:21, “But if your enemy is hungry, feed him, and if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap burning coals on his head” (Romans 12:20, NASB).
Meting out retribution for an evil act is simply not our responsibility!
