One of the most difficult to understand biblical verse for me is "If a person hit your right cheek, give him your left also"
In martial arts, a beginner learn offense first, how to hit and kick
However, they learn defense when advance
It is how strong they are to take hits or kicks
It's much easier to attack others than defending oneself
They develop strong body and mind to withstand pain and fear
The level of one's invicibility is not how good his offense is, but how good his defense is
Superheroes can dodge bullets
Part of the advance martial arts practice is to develop your defense
to fight against our own pain and fear
to learn to take hits after hits
Is this what Jesus is trying to say?
