Today I would like to look at Romans verse 17 to 21

17)If someone has done you wrong, do not repay him with a wrong. Try to do what everyone considers to be good.
18)Do everything possible on your part to live in peace with everybody.
19)Never take revenge, my friends, but instead let God's anger do it. For the scripture says, “I will take revenge, I will pay back, says the Lord.”
20)Instead, as the scripture says: “If your enemies are hungry, feed them; if they are thirsty, give them a drink; for by doing this you will make them burn with shame.”
21)Do not let evil defeat you; instead, conquer evil with good.

These verses teaches us about our relationship with outsiders, specifically with people who has wronged us. In short these verses teaches us that we must conquer evil with good. The instant we take revenge, then evil has conquered us. We must be kind to all people, we must live in peace with all people we must not take revenge and we must do good to our enemies. In this way we will earn honor and respect. This is a way to demonstrate in a practical way the love we receive from God. In this way we Glorify God

Have a wonderful day.
Soli Deo Gloria

44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. (Matt. 5:44-48 KJV)

Amen
