⚡VENGEANCE⚡Do we all possess an equal right to revenge? Welcome to Part I of a new, systematic exploration made at Doctrine-level, House of Reyn style series under Power & Containment, exploring Vengeance, Restitution, Forgiveness & the architecture societies have built around the debts created by human injury. We begin with Christianity & a deceptively sophisticated instruction: “Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.” — Romans 12:19 Because perhaps the more interesting question ≠ whether vengeance is good or bad. It's: who possesses jurisdiction over Revenge itself? This series = designed to move through theology, history, law & famous acts of both extraordinary mercy and magnificent grudge to examine what happens when human beings choose to forgive, retaliate, demand restitution…or simply refuse to absolve. Vengeance is ancient. Our attempts to contain it are nearly as old....& somewhere between injury & absolution lies the question in which I am most interested:I’m most interested in: who possesses the authority to declare a Debt ➡️ paid in full ⚖️ Part I begins here⚡️ #ChristianTikTok #PhilosophyTok #HistoryTok #Revenge #power
