🤔🕵️‍♂️ do christians have a right to self-defense should christians go to war and what about capital punishment what are your thoughts ❓❓

Here goes my two cents 🪙🪙



But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the 💡💡sword for nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath upon the one who practices evil,” (Rom. 13:1-4).

💡💡 He does not bear the sword in vain: The sword is a reference to capital punishment. In the Roman Empire, criminals were typically executed by beheading with a sword (crucifixion was reserved for the worst criminals of the lowest classes). ⭐⭐Paul, speaking by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, has no doubt that the state has the legitimate authority to execute criminals



Also 👉👉

“Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human institution, whether to a king as the one in authority, 14 or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do right,” (1 Peter 2:13-14).



The Bible teaches that we have the right to self-defense 💡💡 Exodus 22:2: “If the thief is caught while breaking in, and is struck so that he dies, there will be no bloodguiltiness on his account.” The Bible also tells us to protect the innocent,



The proper use of self-defense has to do with wisdom, understanding, and tact. In Luke 22:36, Jesus tells His remaining disciples, “If you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.” Jesus knew that now was the time when His followers would be threatened, and He upheld their right to self-defense



💡💡 So again according to the Bible Christians have a right to self defense a right to go to war under certain circumstances as well as implement capital punishment

Self-defense is so axiomatic that there’s no logical argument that can be lodged against it‼️‼️

Most sensible people would recognize national defense and self-defense as a givens but there are still some dupable people totally against the justification of either.

I’ve heard many of the nescient arguments against self-defense and they are just that—nescient or even worse‼️‼️

Women have a right to defend themselves against verbal abusers of Women, then think they can teach the bible to anyone anywhere. God does not have Men like that teaching His Word.



Those kind need to seek Jesus for a Right Relationship with Him, God does not support that kind of Character.



His teachers are Lead by the Spirit of God.



They are not Abusers and Amateurs attacking women's character and following on Dating sites to keep degrading Christian Women.

What Woman would want that for any Leader of the house!



Disturbed bitter Mindset they have. Needing Gods Deliverance, 2 posting to impress but they are Fakes.

It is good to execute a few innocent lives along the way, just to be certain you do a thorough job.

The Bible would teach eye for eye, tooth for tooth. But who would want done to them what is being done to unborn babies? That would end abortion right away. No woman would want done to her what is being done to unborn babies. No abortionist would want done to them what is being done to an unborn baby. Yet unborn babies die everyday because the government has a different set of standards than eye for eye and tooth for tooth and the hardness of hearts of sinners and law-breakers that do not have a heart for the word of God.

The idea is that people have a right to defend themselves. Some defend every evil. Like Moonlight for example. But Jesus says to turn the other cheek. We are constantly being slapped by Moonlight who does not have a heart for the Bible at all and would rather that people follow her than that anyone follows the teachings of Jesus.

Of going to war, Jesus commended the Centurion.

The Bible says not to make yourselves slaves of men. (1 Corinthians 7:23)

Anyone who joins the military becomes a slave to the military system. You become property of the United States of America or the property of whatever country you serve.

But Jesus does say that the greatest among you will be your servant. (Matthew 23:11)

But are we to be the slave of Christ or the U.S. government? Or someone else?

Marriage itself makes you a slave to someone

who might be cruel.
