Serve Your Enemies: Command #19

Jesus said, “But I say, do not resist an evil person! If someone slaps you on the right cheek, offer the other cheek also. If you are sued in court and your shirt is taken from you, give your coat, too. If a soldier demands that you carry his gear for a mile, carry it two miles.” - Matthew 5:39-41

 

The Greek word for servant is dulos, “someone who is in subjection to his master willingly.” The concept of this word, sometimes translated “bond-slave,” is found in Deuteronomy 15:12-17. Following Jesus is a lifestyle of service.

 

The Dead Sea is dead because there is a lot going in but nothing going out. My soul needs to serve. There are no healthy Christians who aren't serving in some way.
