if you watch the movie, i think you'll like it....... especially if your a Believer or have ever thought of becoming one........
id like to share a little something that i learned today at church...... not to often that ill do this......
ive always heard this and have read the scripture many times but really did not understand the true meaning until today.......
"You have heard that it was said, ' an eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth... But i say to you, Do not resist an evildoer.. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other also, and if someone wants to sue you and take your coat, give him your cloak as well, and if anyone forces you to go one mile, go also the second mile with them.. (Matthew 5)
A big sergeant from a Highland regiment, serving many years ago in Egypt was asked the circumstances of how he became a Christian. He told of a private in his company years before, while he was serving in the Malta.. This private was frequently harassed by soldiers for his religious faith. One night the private came into the barracks quite late. It was a very rainy night. Before getting into his bunk, he knelt as was his custom, to pray. This sergeant picked up one of his boots, which was very heavy with mud, threw it across the room and hit the private in the side of the head. The private said nothing. He wiped the mud from the side of his face and crawled into his bunk. The next morning however, when the sergeant woke up, he found his muddy boots cleaned and polished by his bedside.. The sergeant commented, this broke my heart.......
Turning the other cheek is not easy. The first inclination is to strike back, to get even, to seek revenge.. The route Jesus urges upon us is the behavior which is more likely to leave a lasting impact, to influence the other person to do good.
Enjoy the movie........
