As a third party ,when someone is being served their karma, does it make you bad person if you refuse to empathize or even intervene in their situation because the person is reaping what they sowed? |

femi4:What's revenge in allowing people reap what they sow? Isn't that what the same Bible says Besides why is it revenge if I am not the one that was offended? I just don't want to stop God's punishment in their lives. 2 Likes 1 Share |
