Abstract
Violent stories are often sale outs on local news outlets, while many locals longs to hear it. However, experiencing violence increases our fears and becoming a victim results heightens our mistrust of others. This phenomenon has lead many philosophers to speculate on how to reaction and manage conflict. Some answers we seek for on how to respond to violence are grounded in the praxis of Jesus as depicted in different historical books. There is, however, a tension in the account of Matthew, between Jesus’ teaching in the Sermon on the Mount and the violent endings of some of the parables, some of His actions and speeches. This paper seeks to expose Jesus non violence and violent response to conflict situations.
