01/15/21 TRUTH FOR THE PRESENT TIME
Make no mistake: Christians (Christ followers, Bible Believers) must not take up the sword of steel against an enemy, now or ever.
In response to a friend's comment...
dlg... I know what your saying. Things are not only bad, they are unjust and getting worse. It seems there should be a way to pull the plug.
These are the times that try men's souls. But these are also the times that we must possess our souls in patience, as Jesus said. We see this principle addressed in Jesus words.
Luke 21:12-19
12 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.
13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
14 Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:
15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
17 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.
18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
19 In your patience possess ye your souls.
