BTW no one is saying you should not stop him from raping.
That is beside the point. The question is not "what would you do". The question was what does it mean to render evil for evil or retribution or vengeance.

What if violence is your only way to stop someone from entering your house, your wife and kids are home (hypothetical)...and two guys are kicking the door in? Or you come home and a man has ripped the clothes off of you wife and is attempting to assault her....do you ask him to stop? Or do you resort to violence? What if he has a knife or a gun and you own a gun?

Let it be understood that Apostolic Friends Forum is an Apostolic Forum.
Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
