Two wrongs do not make a right.
















Turning the other cheek does not mean that a Christian would not defend himself against violent assailants. Jesus was not saying that we should never defend ourselves What did Jesus mean when He said not to resist an evil doer, and to instead turn the other cheek (Matthew 5:39)?

But I say unto you that ye resist not evil, but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the
other also.Matthew 5:39

Two wrongs do not make a right, and in our irritated or angry impatience, we frequently say or do something just as bad or worse as was done to us! Then where are we? Often, our patience does not delay our wrath as God's does.Turning the other cheek. also.Matthew 5:39
