What is the best thing to do when your getting your lights punched out? There are two answers you need. Both answers you need are found in Luke 6:29
It is worth noting that this passage is similar to Matt 5:39-40. where it speaks of someone taking your things through legal maneuvers.
But Luke uses words with a violent tone. Words like strike you, hit you, slap you. Luke 6.29 is about being punched, Beaten, bashed, clobbered or pounded. And then about losing their valuables
Today, it might be your cell phone, wallet or purse, cash, or credit cards
So Jesus gives us answer #1. Do NOT resist, fight back, scuffle or tussle.
If you defy or put up a fight, you can wind up in a hospital or worse, the morgue.
And then there is answer #2. Be cooperative. Give them whatever THING they want
Jesus is reminding us not to be too attached to the THINGS of this world. THINGS are disposable.
In 1 John 3:15 it is written “Do not love the world or the things in the world.
Surviving such an encounter is more important than being a hero.
