the Centurian was not told to stop being one.
Jesus told his followers there was a time to take up the sword.
Soloman said there was a time to kill.
it may very well be beyond my ablility to do harm to anyone, but if they attempted to hurt either of my boys, you better believe that I would try my best to break that person into little bitty pieces.

Ferd, according to some here, those events were before Calvary and therefore don't count as proper examples. Show something after Calvary is what they want to see.
I'm personally thinking of throwing out my Bible before Calvary because it appears that none of it matters.
