Not a violent man
Text: Titus 1:7
Not violent, vengeful, cruel, striker, fierce, or quarrelsome.
Not only violent in action but violent in speech
The violent man
- David prays several times to be delivered from the violent man (Psalms 140:1,4,11)
- Proverbs 16:29
- Ecclesiastes 5:8
Violent and fierce was how the generation of Jews was in Jesus Christ’s day according to Matthew 11:12.
Resorting to violence
- Like the high priest who ordered Paul to be hit.
- Like the priests and leadership who had Jesus Christ beaten.
Turning the other cheek
