That's love to you? Not what Jesus commanded.
"Love your enemies." "Do good to those who hate you."
Sometimes God punishes our enemies through war, and it's usually after the attack of Christ's enemies upon His people. Or do you think we should have sat back and done nothing after radical Islamic terrorists attacked the twin towers twice, killing many with their second attack?
When our Lord Jesus taught to love our enemies, and turn the other cheek, that was not about a situation with an enemy attacking to kill you. This is why He told His disciples in Luke 22:36 to go buy a sword for those who didn't have one. It's called self-defense. That's a God-given right for everyone, not just His disciples and us.
Christians are NOT under THE LAW of Moses. We have the New Covenant.
IF we walk in Christ by The Holy Spirit, then we are not subject to the law; that's what Paul taught in Galatians and Romans, foundational Books of Christian Doctrine. Doesn't mean the law is gone, only means our walk in The Spirit involves not following works of the flesh... but fruit of The Spirit, against which there is no law...
Gal 5:22-23
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance:
against such there is no law.
(KJV)
Go out and steal, murder, commit crimes, etc., doing the works of the flesh, and that one puts theirself back under the law. One then learns just how much the law is still in effect for doing unrighteousness.
God's laws that are still in effect today include the commandment to love thy neighbor as thyself (Lev.19).
So God appointed you to punish the wicked?
Romans 13:1 (ESV)
1 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.
No, God did not appoint me in an office of the law, but there might be some here on this forum that He did appoint as officers of the law to punish the wicked. Why, do you have a PROBLEM WITH AUTHORITY in general? Do you hate those called in the office of administering the law against the wicked? They and the law exists to protect Christ's people from the wicked, so I fail to understand why any... Christian believer would have a problem with that.
Mark 12:31 (ESV)
31 The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
Once again, that commandment was given in God's laws first to Israel, written in the Old Testament Book of Leviticus...
Lev 19:18
18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people,
but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.
(KJV)
