Meditating on the Scriptures Together

1 John 4:17-18

[17] By this is love perfected with us,
so that we may have confidence
for the day of judgment,
because as he is so also are we in this world.
[18] There is no fear in love,
but perfect love casts out fear.
For fear has to do with punishment,
and whoever fears
has not been perfected in love.


Matthew 5:38-41


38 You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39 But I say to you, Do not resist the one who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40 And if anyone would sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. 41 And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.
