No. He is the same, yesterday, today, and forever. And...?

Again, this is the wrong attitude.

We do not kill because someone OPPOSES US! GOOD GRIEF!

If everyone killed just because they were opposed in some way, there would be no humans left in the earth.

NO SIR! We do not kill because someone opposes us!

Sister Alvear is against us killing just because someone is of another country. DUH! No! Not that either!

There is such a thing as RIGHTEOUSNESS.

So WHEN did the God of the O.T. who is the God of the N.T. change his attitude, since you now say that he is AGAINST killing in certain instances?

Brother Strange,

You are beating, or in this instance, shooting against the wind.

I never said that God is against killing. I said He is against His New Covenant Church killing another soul. BIG DIFFERENCE!

If you will look at the beginning of this thread you will see that it is all about men owning guns to protect themselves against another man or against a corrupt government. That is what we are talking about.

Maybe in your zeal to prove me wrong you are adding to what I am saying? Look again. Where did I ever say that God no longer used death in His judgment against man?

You are very unclear on what you are trying to say. What exactly is your point?

And I noticed that you never did answer what I posted to you. Too bad. And you say that I am avoiding you??

“Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him.”

~Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done. And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy. And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me."
That verse doesn't say he had no faith nor did not pray...
