you're okay PBrown.

Rom. 12:19 is addressing personal vendettas not the longing of the human spirit for justice.

I admire all who are praying that no harm come to Michael simply because they are obeying what they have been taught is the correct response to their enemies.

Fact is, Michael has committed murder. Murder carries a capital penalty in scripture. True, it is not the private individual but the government who is tasked with carrying out the punishment.

We come under judgment if we take the law into our own hands.

Nevertheless as Scripture says "When the wicked perish there is shouting." (Prov. 11:10.

No need, all, to feel guilty for wanting justice.

Thank you. As soon as I wish something horrible on him, in my next breath I know it was wrong to do so. My head and my heart are fighting each other over this and my soul is taking a beating because of it.

Justice for Terri is crying out.
