Yes. Audibly. (He also did so in the New Testament.) Why do you not believe that he did? Is it solely because he hasn’t done so, to the best of your knowledge, in our day?

In the creation (or nature, if you feel that I’m pushing unfairly in a certain direction), in the scriptures, in other human persons, in miracles, in spirit. If it was the case today, would anyone be atheist or agnostic? That’s a fair point. And you do want God to be real? No hope is a...

* I’m not saying that I’m buying this explanation, but I have several wind chimes and I must say that I haven’t had any problem at the ol’ hacienda - so far - with robots trying to overthrow me. *

You’re right, of course. They do. God, I’d like to suggest to you, communicates with man every day, in many and diverse ways. If there is no God that would certainly be true; a self-delusion. Why do you self-identify as an agnostic rather than as an atheist? I think there is something inside...

“He came and preached peace …” (Ephesians 2:17, WEB) But most would not listen to him. Their hearts were hardened and war, the way of the gun, is their play.

Is it God who says to the preachers of peace that they are self-righteous? No. It’s the devil who says it to those who preach peace, not war. “Get behind me, Satan” (Matthew 16:23). ”War can’t give life. It can only take it away.“ - Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong, “War”

The life is in the blood.

You haven’t got it. Go and kill your enemies then if you must but don’t use Jesus to justify your disobedience.

That is properly done by the government.

I answered them. Your allegations are being made out of ignorance. The obvious reason was not for defense.

Not a single innocent has been abused, mistreated, even killed that God is not aware of. He could have prevented it, but he didn’t. I bear this in mind as I go about my work with neglected, abused and at risk children. I bear this in mind when I think about what could happen to me, or to my...

It can’t always be avoided and God may not want always it to be avoided. He allows it to happen. The key is in how, by what means, the innocent is defended by the man of peace. Love, not wrath, is the means.

1%. That’s worth meditating on. What might Jesus of Nazareth say to that? Perhaps, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.“

Jesus killed his enemies. The body count is high. He didn’t use any of the weapons of the world against his enemies. He overcame the weapons of the world. “Be like Jesus” is a radical message and life to men of violence and death.
