In episode 28, Those Crazy Bible Study Guys get into how we are designed to fight or flight which make retaliation a natural response!   They further learn that "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" was actually a term used in the courts of Jesus' day for guidance as to how to assess punishment on a convicted criminal.   While joking about a fun level of retaliation at home trying to unexpectedly scare our spouses, the Holy Spirit inspires a mic drop on this episode: we learn why we need to come to God in prayer in situations where we want to retaliate because it is a whole other level of love we need, a supernatural love, that Jesus showed that day on the cross as he asked for God's forgiveness on those who falsely accused Him and brutally brought Him to a wrongful death.
