Revenging and Resisting Evil

The one body of which Christ is the head, is commanded by him not to revenge themselves, not to take any other sword than the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God (Ephesians 6:17), not to resist evil, if smitten upon one cheek to turn the other, and many other precepts of which his own conduct when in the hands of his enemies was an unmistakable illustration (Matthew 5:39-41; Romans 12:17; Luke 23:34). In view of these commandments, war and desolation are no part of Christadelphian duty but the Christadelphian’s war is well stated in the letter of Paul to Corinthians (2Corinthians 10:3,4)
