>> It would be nice to see them live there Hell on Earth once in a while.

Romans 12:19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

But like you, FRiend, so often I want them to pay NOW! While I watch.

This is one of the most difficult matters of faith with which I struggle.

I'm sure it is but I think or maybe believe that comes under the “Render unto Caesar” codicil Do you believe the Almighty would allow criminals to go unpunished and walk among us? Could you say there is a difference between vengeance or revenge and punishment? Could it be vengeance is a matter of lacking the capacity to look into a man's heart? I think if there is one thing the Bible teaches us or attempts to teach us is restraint on passions and deny our baser instincts. The easy thing to do would be to hurt those who hurt us. Well, all that and a buck fifty will get you a cup of coffee. Take care FRiend, j
