What can you do to move closer to keeping it? Does it bother you when the state insists you swear an oath? Should it?  3.     What is the first surprise in Jesus comments about 'no revenge'? What is the second surprise? What should we do if our response to evil does not produce good results? Why does Jesus tell us not to seek vengeance?  4.     Who are your enemies? Why does Jesus tell us that in loving our enemies we will be children of the Father? Reflect on this regarding your own Christian experience.
