Ah. My error. I must have been thinking of some *other* Christ who said: "But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one."

> The sword carried by a follower of Christ is the Sword of the Spirit, i.e. the Word of God.

Yes, most effective for defense against muggers.

My last reply to Talon was actually meant for Orionblamb. Talon has some knowledge of the text (though he's neglected the main point), whereas Orion appears to think that weapons are more powerful than the Word of God, which, of course, is absurd, since it is the Word of God that bought the universe into being, and everything in it, seen and unseen. Lord have mercy on your soul.
