07/26/21 THERE IS A NEW TESTAMENT STANDARD

If I was not a Christian, but if I still loved freedom, dignity, success, USA, truth, justice, morality, as much as America's gun toting, mouth running, supposed patriots, proudly boast themselves to be, then we would not be having this conversation.

But I am a Bible believing, Jesus trusting, Holy Spirit following, U.S. freedom loving, family oriented, truth telling, Christian who intends to lay down my life, as the New Testament teaches, rather than take the sword of steel against those for whom Jesus died, though they are violent, selfish, perverted, whether they are domestic or foreign.

FOLLOWING CHRIST AND BEING BIBLICAL
This is called Biblical Christianity and it is despised by atheists, pagans, Humanists and many self professed Christians. It is the life Jesus lived and calls His people to live. I don't encourage anyone to commit violence. I invite you to join God's army of truth and holiness. We are told to wield the Sword of the Spirit and to love our enemies even when we stand in opposition to their oppression and violent wickedness.

I realize my enemies might seek to take my life in the days ahead. I also realize that there will be some folks i consider to be fellow Christians, who might also seek my life because I refuse to take the lives of oppressors. But my hope is to be faithful to Christ and lead folks into a saving relationship with the Prince of Peace and Savior of the world.

This post has nothing to do with God's appointed role of Law Enforcement and Military Defense. God has appointed government to protect the righteous and punish the wicked. But God has ordained for His Church, His Body, His Bride to do His redemptive work.
