I believe the prescription the great physician gave was to love your enemies, pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you. A wise guy also once said to overcome evil with good.

I read somewhere that murderers have no eternal life in them. Fixing problems through murder creates a wide area effect that results in no eternal life being in a nation, state, province, town, village or household.

In that same piece of work I read that love is matured within us so we will have confidence on the day of judgment.

The point is to imitate God, because as it was said by someone, somewhere .. a man is filled with his ways. So be filled with good things.

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. It's not easy, but nothing worthwhile ever is.

Or with anything else except maybe 9mm.
