About conduct

“Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.” (Leviticus 19:18)

listen to chapter (Read by Max McLean. Provided by Zondervan.)


There is this temptation to pay back. So easy, when hurt, we want to do justice on our own, following the ways of the world. It still seems fair to trust in your own power and judgement.
Christian - you are not your own anymore. you have been bought, and you have Him to take care of any injustice done to you. Your task is to shine to the glory of God, and to proclaim His love that is in you.
This is a wicked world. We are not to be wicked.

Agreed. I find that we have been influenced by the world. Somehow many of us believe that we are "owed" something. Under such conditions the rights of revenge come out.

This is a good word
