not everything is of god. some things are of evil. some things are the manifestation of the anti-christ.
it is very clear. does a true christ need to fight? no. true christians with the right God living in them, they are willing to face persecution. they will not back out of persecution, twist words and mess up themselves. if u live by the Spirit, u will not get into trouble with a sound, God-fearing law. if the law is not God-fearing, i dun mind fighting it. but if it has been good, sound, and Christ-like, naturally i shldn't b in trouble. check out many of paul's epistles. full of reminders.
funny. 我有坏习惯,就是喜欢纷争。最近有事情令我反省。有人整天在监视我,想把我打倒,想把我搞得堕落。哈哈。我本来想用华人方式对待他。所谓“君子报仇,十年未晚”。我感觉有所不对劲。
我翻了翻圣经。就看看耶稣怎么对待这种情况。就看看马太福音 5:38 至48 -
- 你们听见有话说,以眼还眼,以牙还牙。
5:39
- 只是我告诉你们,不要与恶人作对。有人打你的右脸,连左脸也转过来由他打。
5:40
- 有人想要告你,要拿你的里衣,连外衣也由他拿去。
5:41
- 有人强逼你走一里路,你就同他走二里。
5:42
- 有求你的,就给他。有向你借货的,不可推辞。
5:43
- 你们听见有话说,当爱你的邻舍,恨你的仇敌。
5:44
- 只是我告诉你们,要爱你们的仇敌。为那逼迫你们的祷告。
5:45
- 这样,就可以作你们天父的儿子。因为他叫日头照好人,也照歹人,降雨给义人,也给不义的人。
5:46
- 你们若单爱那爱你们的人。有什么赏赐呢。就是税吏不也是这样行麽。
5:47
- 你们若单请你弟兄的安,比人有什么长处呢。就是外邦人不也是这样行麽。
5:48
- 所以你们要完全,像你们的天父完全一样。
超有道理。

so why have i been fighting? like honestly. if i resort to violence, i am not reflecting what God is. i am merely living out my carnal wants, my carnal aggression, i am living out my ego. is this the right thing? i rather be guided by the spirit.
the Spirit. check out the fruit of the Spirit: Galatians 5:22-23. the Spirit and the flesh struggle against each other. ultimately, i rather trust God, and be guided by Him through the Spirit than be guided by my own wants.
