PHYSICAL ABUSE / ASSAULT

which defined is or may involve: 

• Pushing

Any act in which a person does bodily harm can be considered physical abuse or assault. Physical assault in many states can be a misdemeanor and depending on the offense can have felony charges. You will have to check your individual state for a guideline of your state's individual judiciary  laws of such offenses. Many states like California state Physical abuse as:

• Physically hurting or trying to hurt someone intentionally or recklessly;
• Sexual assault;
• Making someone reasonably afraid that he or she or someone else is about to be seriously hurt (like threats or promises to harm someone); OR
• Behavior like harassing, stalking, threatening, or hitting someone, disturbing someone’s peace, or destroying someone’s personal property).

In other states for example, Virginia's judiciary acts states;

§ 18.2-57. Assault and battery.

A. Any person who commits a simple assault or assault and battery shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor, and if the person intentionally selects the person against whom a simple assault is committed because of his race, religious conviction, color or national origin, the penalty upon conviction shall include a term of confinement of at least six months, 30 days of which shall be a mandatory minimum term of confinement.

B. However, if a person intentionally selects the person against whom an assault and battery resulting in bodily injury is committed because of his race, religious conviction, color or national origin, the person shall be guilty of a Class 6 felony, and the penalty upon conviction shall include a term of confinement of at least six months, 30 days of which shall be a mandatory minimum term of confinement.

Its very important to understand that even if you do not feel like you have hurt that person, any act of physical violence or intentionally hurting someone can be considered violent and dangerous. 

These acts can damage your job status, you can be arrested, do community service, have to take anger management classes, have a criminal record or worst.

God did not call us to intentionally or deliberately hurt anyone. When Jesus was on the cross the word says that he had ten thousand legions of angels standing at attention at his will to do anything but instead he spoke love to the Father in Luke 23:34 and said "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do"

What a beautiful act that he laid his life down for us although we did not deserve it.

He never once threaten those spitting on him, throwing stones, calling him names and mocking him. He only saw love for each of them.

 WE ARE ALL SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF THE MOST HIGH. THE PHYSICAL DAMAGE YOU DO TO SOMEONE IS THE DAMAGE YOU DO TO THE FATHER.
