Leave All Vengeance To God – Bible study

The AP reported a man by the name of Joseph Stack from Austin, Texas, flew his small aircraft into the IRS building in Austin, because of conflicts he had with the IRS (here is his suicide note).

Mr. Stack reportedly said, Violence is the only answer. The problem with that thinking, is that God doesnt condone this vigilante brand of violence. He should have followed the advice that Paul gave in Romans 12:19-21-NKJV.

We should leave all vengeance to God, for only He knows the true motives of the heart, and thus is able to render true justice in a matter (Psalm 139:1-4; cf. Matthew 9:4; John 2:24).
