    Turn the other cheek

    Hey guys, It appears that Jesus statement about Turning the other cheek to those who abuse you (Matt 5:39) falls into the larger context of bowing your head in Obedience accepting a judgement which The Lord has proclaimed against a place rather than trying to kick against God’s correction.
