Romans 12:18, As Much As It Is Possible, Live Peaceably With All Men
William Plumer observed, “It does not say that we must live in peace with all men, because that is sometimes impossible. The verse admits too much. There is a class of men, who are not satisfied when they have all their rights, nor even when you make many concessions. What they seek is strife, a broil, a contest, a law suit. Nor is the number of such very small. When thrown with them you can only guard against partaking of their evil spirit and hateful ways.”
