Turning the other cheek.
Jesus, as the New Moses teaches about turning the other cheek.
As Christians, our way of life should surpass the law of talion, which often, is disproportionate. Christian life is integrity, justice, and fidelity to the supreme sacrifice of Christ. He taught us to respond to insults without retaliation by always seeking the best solutions for peace and never to solution to worsen conflictual situations. Our actual society is ever in need non-violent reactions and solutions...
Like Naboth, our integrity and faithfulness to God is always required. Just as Naboth refused to sell his ancestors inheritance, so shall we stand firm to preserve our loyalty and love for our Catholic faith and doctrines.
Lord, we need your Holy Spirit!
