Why do you think Jesus said if you don’t have money to buy a sword, to sell even your cloak and buy one? That was directed at us individually.

Why do you think in Romans 13:4 we are collectively warned that government is intended for our good but for those who do evil it does not bear the sword in vain?

We’re not to start anything, but if those who seek to do evil start it we certainly have a right to finish it, not in a proud or boastful way as muslims kill people but as servants doing what must be one.

paisa, I’ll try to write my thoughts on this subject (Jesus and the sword) a little later.

Take Care.
