Rejoice in others misery???


I ran across this today and found it interesting.  Generally we are told not to take pleasure in the suffering of others.  That isn't a Christian thing to do.  And yet that is exactly what Jesus tells us to do in Revelation 18:20. 

Revelation 18:20(NKJV)
“Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you holy apostles and prophets, for God has avenged you on her!”

Now let me be clear.  I'm not suggesting that we routinely do this or that we become uncompassionate.  Not at all.  I'm just pointing out that a person is not always wrong or sinful for doing so.  Apparently there are times when it is appropriate.
