Listen "What Does "Turn The Other Cheek" Actually Mean? (Matthew 5:39)"
Episode Synopsis
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus famously tells His disciples to "turn the other cheek." What did the Lord mean by that? Is this an invitation for all Christians to remain passive victims of abuse? Is this teaching permanent non-resistance against violence? Is this an absolute prohibition against defending yourself in light of the sinful aggression of others? Or, does the Lord perhaps have another intent in His teaching? In this episode, Dr. Sadaphal will exposit Matthew 5:39 in an attempt to help you think and act biblically. Devoting attention to a proper understanding of the Lord’s words is crucial because this text is commonly misunderstood.
