How To Deal With People Who Don't Like You

Contributed by Bruce Lee on Aug 24, 2017

No where in the bible does it tell us to treat people the way we want to or to get even with those who don't like us. The bible does teach us not to stoop to their level.

The Man Who Had Everything, Except . . . Series
