You requested scripture that shows where the use of deadly force is OK.
Now I'm asking you to provide scripture that shows where its OK to use ANY kind of force, including grabbing, against one's enemies.
Grabbing an attacker would definitely NOT be gentle, rather, it would be forceful.
Where is your scriptural justification for this? Did Jesus do this?
Turn around is fair play.

My theory: nobody but
nobody follows the scriptures in
every detail at
every moment of their born-again lives. Even with all the talk of it not being possible under our own power, but letting Christ work in us, even that doesn't work, in every detail at every moment. We may
think our flesh has been crucified, but like it or not, that flesh has a nasty habit of resurrecting now and then!
