We who belong to Christ and are possessed by him should bring blessing wherever we go and whatever we do. We live in a world in which we are often confronted by evil. When this happens it is our natural response to do evil to those who do evil to us. But we are to do good to those who do evil. In fact! bringing blessings to others is part of our Christian calling. The New English Bible has marvelous translation of those important instructions. Do not pay wrong with wrong, or abuse with abuse, on the contrary, retaliate with blessing.
(1Peter 3:9) What a ministry God has entrusted to us. We should ever be on the offensive in bringing blessings to our society, and we should be especially aggressive in bringing blessings to those who do evil to us and others. When we bring blessings to others, we are blessed ourselves. The goodness of God is a blessing to everyone. We are encourage to turn away from evil and do good.
That is a wonderful way to live. Like "Christ"
