baddog Posted May 22, 2017 Author Report Posted May 22, 2017 Also, one can seek revenge without killing. Society's vengeance on criminals is usually jail time. Does this mean we should release all prisoners? Of course not. This is where the Bible gets misinterpreted. Sin does not equate with criminal acts. Quote
