Description
This week's episode is an inadvertent throwback to 2020! Michael was home sick so the entire episode took place via Zoom meeting. In the episode, Brent shares 7 reasons why vengeance is proper for God and not for us. They are also listed below:
- God told us we can't (Deut. 32:35)
- God alone is the judge of all people (Heb. 10:30)
- It is contrary to our calling (1 Pet. 3:9, Rom. 12:17-18)
- When we try, we get in the way of God's vengeance (Rom. 12:19)
- When we try, we get in the way of God's mercy (Rom. 12:20)
- God is better at it than we are
- Forgiveness sets the table for the gospel
