Mandela ‘Fear…has made you an unjust and brutal people. One day we will be free and we will be the rulers of our country, but do we want to live in the same hell as you do now? That would be to lock ourselves back into prison, and our children and generations after that.’

Romans 12:17-18, 21 Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honourable. Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone. Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good. (New Living Translation)

Rejecting revenge is a positive choice. What will you choose?
