Going Through the Emotions - "Revenge: Imprecatory Psalms"

from ACTS Church Northwest · host ACTS Church Northwest

As Christians, we are called to be forgiving people. Yet, when someone wounds us deeply, we often struggle with wanting to get revenge. In Psalm 137, the Israelites have been carried off into exile by the Babylonians. They too struggle with revenge as they gleefully envision Babylon’s destruction. How can our feelings of revenge be turned into God’s purpose of redemption.
