What if violence is your only way to stop someone from entering your house, your wife and kids are home (hypothetical)...and two guys are kicking the door in? Or you come home and a man has ripped the clothes off of you wife and is attempting to assault her....do you ask him to stop? Or do you resort to violence? What if he has a knife or a gun and you own a gun?

Again... I would argue the intent of the force should be something less than deadly, realizing that he deserves death, as even do I... but more importantly, he needs a Saviour as even do/did I.
Should I kill him in such a struggle - I would repent and live with this knowledge.
