One of his greatest teachings that we brushed off often is about resisting evil and turning our cheek after being slapped in Matthew 5:39. If we act wrongly like others wrong us, we basically invite evil into our lives by mocking or humiliating those who hurt us. The lesson from Jesus is: Don\u2019t ever try to get even or retaliate! Because that shows we put our faith in something else.
