>>2613496Jesus whipped moneylenders, he isn't against violence or fighting, The idea is not to let your emotions control you, especially those of vengeance, If someone or something is threatening you. You should be able to defend yourself, just not out of vengeance. And you should out of practicality not allow yourself to be tricked again or hurt again. But not out of feelings of vengeance. If someone hurts you or is wicked, you aren't supposed to just lay down and let it happen. Just like you shouldn't accept sin because Jesus defended a prostitute. The prostitute would not have been able to be forgiven and live a less sinful life is she had not been forgiven for her sins when she was seeking to be better.
