Bible reference(s): Romans 12:17-21, 13:1-5; Ephesians 4:32

We enjoy watching a movie hero get their revenge. Yet in reality revenge is not pretty - it's destructive.

The Bible gives us three very clear reasons not to take revenge: all based on what we can know about God. These reasons are both a comfort and a challenge to us.
