  • Please pray for us...Our relatives (Darlene Martin along with her agent Jill Martin Rische), who claim to be believers, have served us with a lawsuit for posting clips of my father Dr. Martin. Please pray that the Lord will convict them and deliver us all from evil in this matter.

  • @kpsx5 Certainly not! But your question didn't seem to be addressing that. And I'm not sure why Piper thinks that suing someone (ie getting justice) is somehow "evil" - evil would be stealing from them over and above what they had taken from you, exacting revenge. How can applying to God's servant for justice is evil?!?

  • @M400fan i dont hold any hatred towards the driver. and i am getting the money from their insurance company (if thats what ur saying). Is that wrong?

  • @RedHatBlueShoe Because we should leave room for wrath - and the courts are agents of wrath to punish the wrongdoer (read the end of Rom 12 and start of Rom 13).

  • @kpsx5 Claim off the insurance company! It's called "leaving room for wrath" - God is concerned about justice here and now - but you mustn't hold any hatred towards the driver.

  • what if a pedestrian gets hit by a car and the pedestrian suffers from brain trauma and it ruins his life? (true story. not even kidding.) and the compensation is worth (im pretty sure) hundreds of thousands
