But most Christians who believe in Jesus Christ as the third person of the trinity, also get wisdom and guidance from the entire bible, believing that the ENTIRE CANON in the bible is the inspired word of God. This is not my "personal" interpretation. Jesus did not come to abolish everything that came before; he came to fullfill it.

Of course, Christ raised no army! That was not his purpose. His purpose was to teach and sacrifice.
I believe in self defense, defense on behalf of others, and a just war theory.

And the current war is NOT just....not in the least, but I'm not here to discuss the war.

Or to put it another way, if I'm being raped, you can be DAMN sure that my husband would use lethal force to protect me, if necessary.

I suppose in your view, he's not only suppose to watch, he's suppose to turn over his eldest daughter, as well.
