This was actually a great message. I just got through watching another video telling Christians to be passive punching bags. The world is so lost.
How do they think they beat down the luminanity and that's why they really hate us
The "...exists in other free states as well." comment alone earned the video a like! 😄
Thank you, jesus ❤
Amazing! And we’ll said 🙏🏽✝️❤️
"Do not return evil for evil"
"Turn the other cheek"
"Dont resist the evil person"
"Put your sword back for all who take the sword will perish by the sword"
"Bless those who curse you , and pray for those who persecute you"
"Love your enemies"
Would you allow yourself or others who did not provoke, to be killed if you had the chance to attempt to stop the violence? Evil triumphs when good people do nothing. As a survivor of violence, I now protect myself and the innocent. I've had a brother murdered. No one took up arms in his defense.
@@Robinhood1966 i understand your point of view and i am deeply sorry that you had to go throgout that , my answer to you is pointing to Jesus and apostles
So, if a rapist wants your wife, present him your daughter also?
@@Kiticvhs "Do not think I come to abolish the law or the prophets, I come not to abolish but to fulfill
@@Kiticvhs Mark 3:27 New King James Version (NKJV)
No one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.
In modern times Jesus would have had a follow up question to the "two swords" statement. "How much ammo"?
This provided so much clarity! Thank you!
Awesome teaching!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if you absolutely feel like that person’s intentions was to rob or to be deadly then you “trusted your gut”
5:00 Keep reading it.. Peter was scolded for using the sword. Lay down this life and have faith unto death. There is no life for people of faith to 'defend' because our reward is in death. How many ways does Jesus have to put it? Give up your life and separate yourself from this world. Humble yourself and know that you cannot possibly save anything, not even yourself. Have faith in Him or He will not know you.
"Put your sword back in its place!" Not turn it into the authorities. "Have I not chosen to drink from my Fathers cup?" This has nothing to do with a father guarding his home. It was his fathers will to be captured, nothing to do with self defense
👆🏻 this comment above me is correct and it comes from the discernment of the holy Spirit that should be in you while reading the word of God.
Christians distort the word to try to make people more comfortable rather than teach what the bible actually teaches
@@User-q6x3b Where does he command the msn of a house to surrender his family to robbers? Where does he command woman to submit to rape?
A peaceful man must be capable of violence, otherwise he is simply harmless.
Christs teaching specifically prohibits us from forcing the gospel on others. We are to bring it in love, and even when rejected violently we are to turn the other cheek.
But if someone comes at you or your family with criminal violent intent, as husbands and fathers you have a God given duty to protect! If this concept seems strange I recommend you read the book of Judges, Samuel and Kings... God set up characters to uphold justice, bring peace and deal with evil. He is the immutable God and the same principles still stand.
Amen!!
So True
The sword was to fulfil prophecy just before Jesus was arrested, not to use in violence. Remember,? It's the time Peter cut off the bloke's ear and Jesus rebuked him and healed the guy's ear?
Fulfill what prophecy in particular? I don't recall a prophecy about a man's ear being cut off before the crucifixion.
Correct, except there is also a meaning for the prophets to have 2 swords and not 12 sword - one for each prophet - and not 0 swords.
Jesus stopped Peter because of what was happening. Jesus was fulfilling his purpose of paying our sin debt.
Isaiah 53:12 is the prophecy fulfilled: “12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.”
I believe, in one sense, those to whom Judas betrayed Jesus were the transgressors. Jesus healed the ear of Malchus after Peter cut it off, thereby interceding for his infirmity; but I feel we are the greatest transgressors. Also, it interests me that Jesus instructed Peter to “put the sword back in it’s place” rather than rid himself of it. The sword is not the issue; it is the intent with which it is wielded, the difference between defense(killing)and murder. Research the Hebraic words used and then re-read passages, including the commandments. That said, we are to Jesus exhorts is to Love our neighbors and enemies, and remember defense against someone who won’t allow themselves to be loved in the moment does not necessarily mean their death; seek GOD first for wisdom.
thank you so much
Christians will rule the earth with Jesus as King!! Thy Kingdom come! I don't think satan is gonna give up without a fight, it says God will give us power to chase 10,000 down because evil is cowardly! it is wrttten!
YES!
As of this writing, this may be the best sermon I've heard about guns. As a gun owner myself, I have struggled with the possibility of having to shoot and kill someone in which obviously I do not want to do. But at the same time as I heard someone say, we shouldn't be sitting ducks. I was a little bit surprised when you mentioned about President Obama commision a report about guns prevented violent crimes because the Democrat party is all for gun confiscation.
Well said
Nehemiah 4:14
0:35 that person would most certainly be guilty of murder
TY & God Bless urv Wisdom! sub'd also GreaT TEaching
Jesus Christ, "The Prince of Peace", I don't understand.

@@User-q6x3b Guess Peter chopped Malchus' ear off with a metaphor, then.
@@User-q6x3b Yet Jesus allowed him to bring the sword in the first place, so what did you hopefully learn now? 1: It still wasn't a metaphor and 2: context matters.
