That includes bakers, butchers and brewers. Does it not?

More unsound teaching from you (and your mystery church).

That isn’t a doctrine of Jesus and the Apostles. That’s a doctrine of demons. Ask your pastors about it.

Yes. My post was about you; stay in YOUR lane. Don’t couch your cowardice pacifism as moral superiority.
I stand before my enemies without the weapons of the world in my hands. (So did Jesus, the Apostles, and the earliest Christians, not to mention many other Christians down through the centuries.) You don’t have the courage to do that.
You’re also hiding behind an unidentified church. I’m not.
Who is the real coward? You.

Wrangler supports a war mongering draft dodger of a president.
That should tell you a few things about other forms of christianity.

Crusaders were a bunch of evil warmongers.
This kind of evil behaviour is still going on today.
It's called "Killing in the Name of the Lord".
Pete the US War Secretary is one of them, preaching this garbage.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The Crusades were a series of military campaigns launched by the papacy between 1095 and 1291 against Muslim rulers for the recovery and defence of the Holy Land, encouraged by promises of spiritual reward.
The Pope was behind all of this.
Later during the Reformation 1000's were burned all across Europe.
All in the Name of Jesus Christ.

All of this supported by Wrangler and others on this Christian Forum.
Nothing new under the sun.

How many members registered “Christian” on Christianity Board - to say nothing about Christians around the world who are not registered on Christianity Board - aren’t “armed, ready to kill”? I don’t know, but I suspect it would be the vast majority of them.
Whatever the actual number, that’s how many @Wrangler (and his unidentified church) is asking his readers to believe “are not followers of Jesus”.

The Crusaders were good and justified in their war mongering.

Yup, they would fit right into the hateful warmongers on this forum, no doubt about that.
No doubt you war mongers would love to burn people like they did during the reformation.
The crusaders acted upon instructions by Rome.

“Blessed are the warmongers” said Jesus and the Apostles, never.
The foundation of your concealed identity church isn’t sound.

Both the Muslims and the Crusaders committed evil acts.
Evil is unsupportable for followers of Jesus, no matter who commits it.
Repent and be saved. (The parable of the sower.)
From my X / Twitter “Following” feed this morning-
“#OTD April 30, 304:
The harshest anti-Christian edict if Diocletian's Great Persecution was published. It ordered all inhabitants of the empire to offer sacrifice to the gods, resulting in widespread arrests, torture, and executions. The persecution, driven especially by Galerius, became one of the most severe in early Church history. Years later, on April 30, 311, the same Galerius, dying from a gruesome illness, issued the Edict of Toleration, ending the official persecution just days before he death.”
(Today in Christian History)
The persecuted Christians weren’t “armed, ready to kill.” They were faithful to the teaching of Jesus and the Apostles. They overcame evil with good.

All that is necessary for evil to flourish in this world is for good men to do nothing.
See post #1637. The unarmed followers of Jesus, persecuted by the government that was tasked by God to defend them, didn’t “do nothing.“ They did something. They obeyed the teaching of Jesus and the Apostles, even unto death. They witnessed.
The ”You are not a follower of Jesus if you aren’t armed, ready to kill” teaching is shown to be false by the actions of the early Christians.
Follow their example.
Please don’t pass quickly by the painting of the persecuted Christians in the arena. As you cast your gaze upon it ask yourself this: Are these unarmed, persecuted, followers of Jesus who are about to die for their obedience of faith in Messiah Jesus “Man in form but without substance”?
I hope the reader is revolted by the thought. Where does it come from?
“Man in form but without substance” is the corollary teaching of the “You are not a follower of Jesus if you aren’t armed, ready to kill” teaching. It is taught by @Wrangler but it comes from the devil.
