Nothing God "provides" is given while we sit idle.
When the Bible says God provides it doesn't mean we sit there and he delivers. It means He provides us the ability and opportunity and then we are able to fulfill these provisions per his help and strength.

My Bible that I read states he has already done it. a in another passage it said the Lord goes before us. Anyway what in your response justifies taking of a human life by a christian in any event. I would like to have a scripture to back that up.
When they begin to persucute the church of Christ in the near future and start to kill christians are you going to bear arms and go out and fight? If your answer is yes, then you need not reply to this post because I will understand where you stand.
Jesus said: If my kingdom was of this world then my servants would fight.
I don't think I'm debating the issue of guns and home protection, I see an overtone in these threads of a anti-government thinking. Not sure if I can agree with that type of mind set.
