What part of His command to His disciples to go BUY A SWORD do you not understand???
Brainwashed NWO types like yourself can go on and on against that Luke 22 Scripture, but is simply is not going to go away. And to PROVE that it has not gone away centuries AFTER He said that, the founders of the Republic of the United States of America put the right of the people to bear arms in the U.S. Constitution to ensure that God-given right.
No amount of tongue-twisting like a serpent is going to change that.
Dear veteran,
Christ's words are spirit and they have spiritual meaning. Paul said:
Eph 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
The sword is the word of God. Paul tells us to take the sword just as Christ told us to take the sword. Both represent the word of God. In Christ's message, He goes on to tell us that "two swords" are enough. Enough for what? Enough to prove any scriptural truth. In other words, we need a double witness of scripture.
Why do you think Christ wants us to take a real sword but Paul wants us to take a spiritual sword (the word of God). Are Paul and Christ teaching something different? No, they are not. In fact, Christ is the word of God. Do you think that Christ would tell Paul anything different since Christ is the author of scripture? Christ words are spirit (John 6:63) and as Paul explained, the spiritual understanding of "sword" is the word of God.
Since Christ is the word of God and His words are spirit, then it stands to reason that for a person to understand scripture, they MUST have spiritual understanding. Spiritual understanding is represented by having "eyes that can see" and "ears that can hear". We all come into this world spiritually blind. Christ came to heal the blind. So if you are ever going to understand scripture, you must have Christ heal your blindness and give you that understanding. Spiritual blindness is how Christ conceals his Truth from the unbelievers and the "called" (those in the harlot churches). He only reveals it to the "chosen" and the "few".
Do you not understand any spiritual meaning of scripture?
Here is a very easy one:
Matt 8:22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
Christ is saying to them to let the spiritually dead bury the physically dead. Can you see that?
Here is another one, not quite so easy: Even so, most spiritually near sighted (spriitually blind) people can understand it's meaning.
John 6:56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
Christ is the true bread from heaven. He is also the word of God. If we eat his flesh and drink his blood, then we are being spiritually nurished by Him so as to have the power to follow Him. But in order for us to receive nurishment from the word of God, we must be able to understand it. That takes spiritual understanding that only comes to us when Christ heals our spiritual blindness. Our blindness is healed when Christ gives us the Holy Spirit to dwell in us. Christ is the bread of life and we must eat Him. Do you understand that?
Everything Christ said has a spiritual component to it. If you can't understand that spiritual component, then you are going to go on believing that Christ was speaking of literal swords in Luke 22 and you will die in your sins because we are commanded to NOT RESIST EVIL and to LOVE our enemies. We don't show love to them by harming and killing them.
You need to recognize that you are spiritually blind and ask Christ to heal your blindness. He is the only one who can help us "see". But be careful what you ask for. If He heals your blindness, it will turn your world upside down and your church will cast you out. The harlot does not take kindly to God's Elect teaching the truth of scripture.
Finally, what is a NWO type? If you think I am one, I should at least now what it is. However, my understanding of scripture is not associated with any of the "many" harlot churches in the world. My understanding of scripture comes from scripture. I do not associate with any so called "church" or group.
