Yes, because not a single one of those are self defense. Self defense is PREVENTATIVE. Retaliation, retribution and vengeance are things you do AFTER the fact. Neighbor and your wife has an affair, you go blow his brains out as a result. That is NOT self defense. That is retribution. That is vengeance.

Neighbor kills your kid brother, you go kill his kid brother. That is retaliation.

Self defense is NOT vengeance, retribution nor retaliation.

Additionally I asked about the death penalty and sending people to prison for committing crimes. How do you feel about those forms of retribution?

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
