    Should I buy a sword?

    I believe you are in denial of the destructive implications of 2 Peter 3:9; God may not want anyone to perish but they will perish at his hand for NOT coming to repentance. Otherwise, universalism is correct doctrine.

    Should I buy a sword?

    apocalyptic symbolism? It’s not literally Second Death? Matthew 10:28

    Should I buy a sword?

    Does there have to be a command in addition to buying a sword and the implications of that?

    Should I buy a sword?

    Address my point about tooth brushes. Where do we even read of such an entity as a "tooth brush" in the Bible? Yet, most Christian’s brush their teeth. Taking Scripture out of context, refusing to apply principles to today’s issues is what you’re doing, as well as ignoring 2 Corinthians 3:17...

    Should I buy a sword?

    Again, the purpose Jesus told his disciples to be armed was NOT to stop Jesus completing his work on the cross. @MatthewG, I’m interested in your lack of response to God’s ultimate solution to the problem of evil - violently annihilating all evil people who don’t believe, even resurrecting...

    Should I buy a sword?

    No one said the swords were to use against the Roman soldiers attempting to arrest Jesus. Not sure how you allocate buying sword fully for prophecy sake. Jesus telling the disciples to buy a sword implies using violence as necessary. Why would anyone tell someone to arm themselves? It’s not a...

    Why is it blasphemy?

    Never have I heard that the truth is what blasphemy hinges on. By definition, blasphemy is accusing a character of God. For instance, blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is asserting a negative attribute the God’s Spirit. Saying God is love is claiming a character of God but is not claiming a...

    Should I buy a sword?

    Again, that’s a Strawman. Fact is, Jesus told his followers to arm themselves. That implies using physical violence as needed. And then there is Revelation, where Jesus kills more people than ever in history by violently throwing people into the Lake of Fire.

    Should I buy a sword?

    Tuesday is an example of an unnecessary qualifier designed to create a Strawman. The Bible is filled with violence and even God commanding it. Because that doesn’t support your position, you invoke only a portion of the Bible that doesn’t support your opponents position. That is, NT text only...

    Should I buy a sword?

    You’re taking God’s word out of context. No one is denying there is a spiritual warfare. The overly-spiritualized deny there is a need to defend Christian nations with guns. The Bible doesn’t say we fight against tooth decay. Yet, most Christians today brush their teeth. The Bible contains...

    Should I buy a sword?

    On a Tuesday … what a Strawman attempt to deny the violent history of the Bible.

    Should I buy a sword?

    No, we are in a war that is fought with guns AND one that isn’t.

    Trump Derangement Syndrome is very real!!!

    Trump Derangement Syndrome is very real!!!

    So, this is your way of admitting the economy was good under Trump.

    Why is it blasphemy?

    Who else but the Messiah should sit on the right hand of God? Not sure how it is blasphemy.

    Why is it blasphemy?

    One thing I never understood is the chief priests' response to Jesus's "I am" statement in confessing he is the Messiah in Mark 14:62. How is it blasphemy for the Messiah to admit he is the Messiah?

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    Negation. Total denial of practical application of Scripture. Fiercely anti-Scriptural. Pathetic.

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    Not an answer to my question. Doesn't surprise me as a coward cannot bear scrutiny. We agree that Jesus is the example but you ignore that Jesus' practical solution to the problem of evil is violence.
