"Turn the other cheek" doesn't mean what Christians are taught

We know so much of Christianity and Christian understanding, Christian religion isn't actually based on the bible or derived from the bible or the the text of the bible. It's derived from imposed understanding or imposed interpretation, theological interpretation of the text of the bible. So most Christians, when they read a passage from, say, the New Testament, they read it already through a certain filter, through a certain lens that is imposed upon them by the church. So they're not able to even read it independently to to arrive at what might be a different conclusion than what the church has given them. And you could take for example the passage in Matthew, the sermon on the mount when they have Jesus saying that if someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other cheek.

Now that's been taught that that means passivity, being docile, being peaceful, know, non resistant. But if you think about it, think imagine if when Will Smith went up on the stage at the Academy Awards and smacked Chris Rock. If Chris Rock had stood there and turned the other cheek and said basically, what else you got? Is that all you've got? Turning the other cheek when you've been struck on one side of your face and then you turn the other side of your face, that is an ultimate act of defiance.

It's almost braggadocious to show that you didn't hurt me at all. Now let's see what else you can do. It's a defiant gesture. It's not a docile or a passive gesture. And then further they have Jesus saying if someone sues for your shirt, then give him your coat also.

It means you can deprive me of whatever you wanna deprive me of and I'll just give it to you anyway. It doesn't matter. It doesn't hurt me in any way. You can do nothing to me. This is also an act of defiance.

And when it says, if you're if if someone compels you to walk a mile, go two miles. Endurance, outdo them. Go further. Last longer. This is defiance.

This isn't docile, this isn't passive, this is defiant. This is being able to go 12 rounds in a six round fight. No. Jesus was a Muslim and he spoke like a Muslim even in the bible. There are still passages in the bible which we believe may yet contain some kernels of truth.

Some they may they may bear some resemblance to what actually said and what he actually taught. And the lessons that was teaching even in those passages don't mean what the church fathers tell you they mean. They have a Muslim meaning. They have a meaning of struggle. They have a meaning of resistance.

They have a meaning of defiance. They have a meaning of never allowing yourself to be defeated and outdoing the enemy. But Christians aren't able to even read the bible as it is even though obviously we understand and we know and it has been proven. We know from a Quran and then later biblical scholars confirmed what was already in the Quran that the bible and the teachings of the of the gospels have been corrupted, have been changed, have been added on to and subtracted from. But still even now with that bible, if you read it, the text of what they have saying and you try to read it independently with your own critical thinking, your own critical mind, your own intelligence rather than the interpretations that are imposed upon the text, then you will come to a very different understanding.

And you will be able to recognize that the teachings of even as they exist still in the bible are consistent with Islam.
