    Depends on how we respond to the cutting off of our people's heads. If we ignore it ....we are weak. If we fight back the next we win.

    To "turn the other cheek," does not imply pacifism, nor does it mean we place ourselves or others in mortal danger. Turning the other cheek refers to personal retaliation, not criminal offenses or acts of military aggression. Clearly, Jesus did not mean to negate all God’s laws and injunctions protecting us against violent crime or invading armies. Rather, Jesus is speaking here of the principle of non-retaliation to affronts against our own dignity, as well as lawsuits to gain one’s personal assets, infringements on one’s liberty, and violations of property rights.  He was calling for a full surrender of all personal rights.
