Jesus, Paul, the other apostles, the earliest Christians, didn’t use the sword to kill their enemies. “Put away your sword” - and they did. The world didn’t. The world considered them as sheep to the slaughter. It still does.

Bart Ehrman asks, “Is it even possible to follow Jesus’ teaching?” Someone replies to him, “Unless u believe the world is about to end, forget Jesus’ teachings on how to live your life. His teachings r not practical for an on-going world and Jesus never intended them to be.”...
