Of course.
Vengeance is God's. He will repay.
If you repay somebody for what they've done you yourself will have to answer to God above...The eye for an eye is given only to the Israelites and was specifically not for outsiders...
you avenge yourself ..God will avenge Himself on you...Because vengeance is a right of God only.

Revenge is a Sin. Jesus tells us to turn the other cheek.

Vengance is mine say's the Lord. Resentment is a sin that leads to vengance so if we rid ourselves of resentment we will not get involved with revenge.

The christian bible says that "vengence is mine sayeth the lord".....it also says that in this age "god" acts through people....it also says love thy neighbor as thyself.....If you ask me (which you obviously did, lucky you!) I say if you want something done, you gotta do it yourself. Sin is a lie anyway, you know what's right and what isn't...

Jesus said to turn the other cheek.

Christians don't believe in that, Jesus changed it.

God said, "vengeance is Mine, not yours".
