To The Contrary
Nov 22, 2020 • Greg Pinkner
Greg teaches on Romans 12:17-21, To the Contrary. Along with Romans, Greg also looks at 1 Thessalonians 1:6-8, 1 Peter 2:23, and quotes from Martin Luther and John Calvin.
Greg shows us how the word avenge in the text is actually closer to the word judgement, which puts a completely different spin on the text. The notion that we have to fix everything, Greg says, shows that we haven't fully submitted to Christ. He emphasizes that we have to seek to show God's grace and mercy, and leave the righteous vengeance to Him.
