From "The Message"
"Our Scriptures tell us that if you see your enemy hungry, go buy that person lunch, or if he’s thirsty, get him a drink. Your generosity will surprise him with goodness. Don’t let evil get the best of you; get the best of evil by doing good.”
Here are a couple of other versions of this verse, from other translations of the Bible: "Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil by good." -Lamsa Bible. "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."-KJV

Hmm — maybe not so easy to buy your enemy lunch — what do you think? Everything in your school is designed to make you think for yourself. You are not here in your school — or on earth — to become a blind believer — you are here to get free of the blind beliefs that are running (ruining) your life.Here are a couple of other versions of this verse, from other translations of the Bible: "Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil by good." -Lamsa Bible. "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."-KJV
