Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.

ByTim Nolte

17 Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable. 18 Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone. 19 Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say, “I will take revenge; I will pay them back,” says the Lord. 20 Instead, “If your enemies are hungry, feed them. If they are thirsty, give them something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals of shame on their heads.” 21 Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.

Romans 12:17‭-‬21 NLT

In the past year I have seen so many that claim to be Christians completely miss the mark here. A lot of people need to spend more time in God’s word, reading the New Testament, and discover what it really means to be a and how to live.

    About Page Updated…

    ByTim Nolte
    So I’ve updated my About page. Compliments of eHarmony, yeah, bring on the jokes. The profile it creates is pretty amazingly accurate. Oh, BTW, unless there is some compelling reason to become a member I won’t be going much farther with this. I don’t have $50 a month to spend trying to get a date,…
