I don't know much about this war, I don't watch the news much, it depresses me.
But im very surprised how many Christians on this forum support this war. I personally don't support any war at all. I only support peace. Jesus preached to love one another, including our enemies and war is the complete opposite of that.
I suggest you read the Old Testament. Our God is also a war God.
And don't forget Jesus,who was God,The Word,made flesh. Jesus told his Disciples to buy swords.
In Gethsemane when the Temple Guards arrived to arrest Jesus, Peter used his sword and cut off the ear of a soldier.
This indicates Peter,who was not a soldier,was well trained so to make such a precise cut.
When Jesus later told Peter to put up his sword because those who live by the sword shall die by the sword, he wasn't talking about his Disciples.
He was referring to Rome. Because Romes conquests across the region was by the sword. And other weapons.
God is not a pacifist.
We are included in what is defined as the Abrahamic faiths. So too is Judaism and Islam.
When a radical terrorist Islamic state declares Israel should be wiped from the face of the Earth, Christians need to pay attention.
Because if Judaism is conquered,the crosshairs of terrorist Islam fall on us next.
In fact,in some regions Islamists are targeting and killing us already.
No one likes war.
However,if you enjoy your God given life, I suggest we don't let terrorists worshipping a false God to be allowed to steal it from us without a fight.
