“Revenge is a dish best served cold.” We’ve all heard it. And when someone has hurt us deeply, revenge can feel justified—even satisfying. But does getting even actually heal anything?
In this episode, Sam looks at the difference between revenge and forgiveness, why our desire to settle the score can keep us chained to the very hurt we want to escape, and what Scripture actually says about justice. Forgiveness doesn’t mean what happened was okay, and it doesn’t mean there shouldn’t be consequences. It means we stop carrying a debt God never asked us to collect.
We’ll look at real-life examples, the words of Jesus, and Romans 12:19: “Do not take revenge… ‘It is mine to avenge; I will repay,’ says the Lord.”
So maybe revenge isn’t a dish best served cold after all. Maybe freedom comes when we finally put the plate down.
And that…is Cowboy Bible Truth.
