Scriptural Speed Bumps: “Turn the other cheek …”
Just when we thought we had wrestled enough with the concept of “eye for an eye,” Jesus adds a whole new twist! We invite you to join us as we dig deep into the words of Jesus and what he asks us to do in light of the command of an “eye for an eye.” Are Christians meant to be weak and those whom are walked upon by evildoers? Does Jesus want us to suffer? Absolutely not! Jesus came to save and heal, not condemn and cause suffering, so we need to discover the truth behind this difficult passage. All are welcome to see what Christ has in store for us this Sunday! Associated Scripture: Matthew 5: 38-39
