Murdering Controversy

What would you do if someone tried to kill your faith? Would you deny your faith like Peter did right before Jesus was murdered? Or would you keep the faith like Job when he was on the brink of death and his own wife told him to curse God and die? It's easy to say you'd be like Job in the face of evil, but what about in real life?

Recently, my blog was attacked, and this person tried to kill my faith through words of controversy:
You are so delusional that it is giving me a headache through the computer! Come read the truth about your bastard "god" and your perverted bible:

Many people would find this offensive, and more than likely retort. During Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5:38, He says that when someone strikes you on one cheek you should turn the other cheek. What exactly does this mean? Should we be turning the other cheek in a sign of backing down and walk away? Personally I think NOT.

As a warrior of God I know what Jesus truly meant by turning the other cheek. In my personal life, and accepting my role as a missionary, I've come across plenty of people that hate me and God. It wasn't long before I figured out what Jesus meant, and it's simple advice. When someone strikes you on the cheek, whether it be physically or verbally, turn the other cheek and say "IS THAT ALL YOU GOT?!"

I'm not backing down from my faith, and I'll die sharing the Word of God. When this person attacked me, I wasn't angry, distressed, pissed, or whatever. My heart broke. It's a shame that so many people out there are so blinded by the god of this world, satan, and can't see the truth...

Good thoughts. Also look at 2 Timothy. Paul tells Timothy that you will have people hate you just because you follow Christ, but do not give into them stand strong in your faith because it is worth the reward in heaven.
