Do you think it evil?

@ Mindful1 [quote]To ask God to hurt those who willingly hurt you?

That’s how I’m feeling right now. I want my enemies to hurt in the same manner they are trying to hurt me. I’m pretty sure this is against my religeon.

I need someone who always takes the high road against his/her enemies to help me understand.

Such concerns as you are expressing indicate that you have never analyzed the New Testament. There are numerous passages in it that give people actual super powers if they have faith. For instance, a believer can drink poison, handle deadly snakes, heal the sick by merely touching them, speak in tongues, cast out demons, toss trees and mountains into the sea by just commanding them, walk on water barefooted, etc.

So, with all of those superpowers why are you incapable of using them to perform activities that will lead to a rapprochement with the people you are having difficulties with?

Imagine if you were to learn that one of your adversaries was sick and you went to the person and instanly healed him/her with your gentle touch. Or if you commanded the person to fly through the air, say to the roof top of the house, and it happened. Would the person continue to be your enemy?

If you are really a believer and have faith, you have those powers so use them to restore peace and harmony with your adversaries and enjoy a life of friendship with them instead of bitter animosity.
