C.S. Lewis stared down and won the “no violence” nonsense in many of his works (I think it was best addressed in”Screwtape Letters”).
Good is not Meek. It was severe violence that met and defeated the Nazis.
God does not support wussies. He does not condone violence for no good reason but He demands support for freedom, even if it costs one’s lives.
The dead over so many wars bear witness that God insists on freedom.
God Bless this militia — I will be looking to see how I can support them monetarily!
Psalm 144: “Blessed be the Lord my God, who teacheth my hands to war and fingers to fight”

God gave us life. HE also gave the moral obligation to defend it.
