If only inside of the conflict between Israel and Palestine could see peace between each other. Knowing that Jesus Christ is the Lord of both of them…
Amen❤
How to treat people you can't understand?
Me: you dont… ain't nobody got time for that.
My husband keeps physically and verbally abusing me.. why😢
Okay few days ago i had a dispute with 2 of my friends and things turned sore thought we reconciled but things weren't the same as before. One of them is acting like i am not there when we are with others and being silent if only 2 of us are there. I know i got upset because those both are not sharing anything with me and must have been rude to them before. I am trying my best to be good with them but god pls help me 🙏 pls pray for me i am so disturbed by all this 😢
Value peace more than getting even. I love this statement!!! ♥️
…it’s gonna be real hard to love anyone after they’ve already killed you….
a peculiar people
SORRY BUH WHAT YOUR SAYING IS MAN MADE DOCTRINES. THE TOTAL TRUTH ABOUT JESUS SEMON ON THE MOUNT WAS TOTALLY NOT WHAT THESE PREACHERS PROFESS! THESE PREACHERS MAKE UP STORIES IN THE DOCTINES OF MEN, WHICH JESUS COULD NOT TOLERHATE! HE PUNISHED THOSE WHO WERE VIOLENT ON THE SEMON ON THE MOUNT! JESUS WAS THE ONE WHO BRINGS JUSTICE ON EARTH, THE SAME ONE AS THE MUSLIM VERSION OF A JUSTICE BRINGER, BUT HE WAS NOT A HUMAN, BUT RATHER A DIVINE BEING, ALIEN! NO MAN HAS POWER AGAINST ALIEN!
So, what if I only had friends who just talked to me never actually true to me when I needed them the most, and didn’t interacted with me when I felt left out, even when I was trying my best to be included, then I came to the conclusion to never to talk to anybody and enjoyed my own company. So you are telling me to love them and forgive them ? How should I love them If they ignore me wherever I try to speak?
Easy it is, for God, to not be hurt by people's injustice, evil and cruelty, when it's only other people they hurt! He, who is in Heaven, is invincible to them, and it's ever easy to forgive wrongs and pain done to other, no? And it's easy to command a sun to rise and rain to flow when you do not pay for this from your own emaciated purse! But how can humans, being ever vulnerable, having ever little, imitate one who is invincible, never hurt by anything? Imitate one who is all-rich and all-powerful, who can give out freely and not be any poorer? These words of turning other cheek and giving out your blanket – they will not protect you from evil people who could not care less! It could only subvert power games, I can grant that – in these precise situations described. Well… This is at least something.
WOW this really brings it home.❤
This hit home. For me
Ok interesting but what if someone wants to kill I don’t know any so just asking incase what we do then because this video made me question I.fight back or not o offense though
MAY GOD BLESS THE WORK OF YOUR HANDS.
What a privilege Lord. To forgive others as. You’ve forgiven me.
But what abt some people nowadays, they don't feel guilty in hurting you no matter what, should I still give in?
Um, what happened to those who crucified Jesus . . . . .
Jesus. 🙃🤗 I forgot. I need more Jesus in my life.
3:32 – I'd rather just strike back until one of us give out…
That way i can get some of mine in as well.
YHWH loves everyone. He makes it rain on top of righteousness and bad guys.
He's a wise and patient father and wants the best for each one of us.
Than he kill them all (deluge) and mostly all (soon).
Don't make oaths. Millions of self identified Christians glorify the opposite of this every day by glorifying and partaking in Satan's govt systems. Military, politics, police, all sins.
Thank you wo much. God bless you
I don't speak, I just keep walking.
Wow, you are amazing, Bibleproject
You gave the example of slapping someone. Back in Roman times, slapping someone with the back of your hand means that they are below you but slapping them with your palm meant you saw them as an equal. We are not in a symbolic world anymore or even a world that values traditions or family units. What would you do if someone slapped you and you turned the other cheek then they decided if you liked being slapped they might as well beat you up? How would you go about handling the situation? Are we supposed to see them as one of God's creations and still proceed to give them water if they needed it? Are we supposed to see them as one of God's creations but keep our distance where we don't interact with them? I'm genuinely wanting an answer. This has been plaguing me for years and the examples shown in the video are great but don't paint the extent of the true evil of this world and how to manage it.
this is inspiring ❤
My prayers are with you, even from a distant place, but for God’s Grace from a closer heart. Peace be with you 🙏🏼
🙏🏾🙏🏾☺️
The world is so divided right now. Political ideology, socio-economic unrest and so on. I urge you, stay on the race with your eyes on the prize.
This reminds me of the modern expression and behavior to “kill someone with kindness” who’s wronged you.
u will do what u say
Creative love is the only pathway to peace… Love this video.❤❤❤
Cool video. Excellent job guys.
How does someone slapping you open palmed force them to treat you like an equal? And what about giving someone your coat also? What if there IS no one around to witness the injustice? There’s so many holes in this logic
For me, the Sermon on the Mount contained more wisdom than Job, Ecclesiastes and Proverbs combined.
I wish there was a prayer at the end of these
