Like I said, suit yourselves getting involved with world's violent affairs.
Yes, you pro-military Christians are misrepresenting Jesus big time.
Your denial will not get you anywhere. You will not be in God's kingdom for sure.
pacifism for true Jesus' followers.

That sounds like judgement. And no one is right to judge, save the Father. Want some Christ words "let no man judge, lest he be judged."
Ever heard of denial. It isn't just a river in Egypt.

Jesus approve of righteous judge. Your approve of violence is not of Jesus.
You judge to destroy your enemy country.
Jesus does not endorse it and I go with Jesus.

Well I go with God. And he laid waste to all the enemies of his people.

God says to listen to Jesus and you don't. You are lying to God.

How is it "lying to God?" That statement makes no sense and comes out of nowhere.
Who did Jesus say to listen to? Answer: the prophets and apostles.

You say you are with God yet you disobey Jesus' word of "love your enemy" by approving to kill your enemy.
You don't seem to know simple logic.
That's what happens when you make excuses one after another to justify your disobedient faith.
That's all it is of your posts here, excuses excuses.
I am done listening to your denials and excuses.
good day.
What if your enemy is oppressing his own people? Do you think it would be wrong to go in and liberate those people?

I don't play "what if" games.
I will know what to practice whatever this world throw at me. That's why I read His word and cling to it.
I can survive just fine, to trust the HS to give me discernment what to do.
My scenario is not a "what if." It has actually happened.
Remember back in the early 2000s, when Bush started the War on Terror in the Middle East?
Was He wrong for liberating the people from the regimes of people like Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein?

He is a politician and politics are of the world. Jesus' followers should mind their onw business, working for spreading God's kingdom.
If the world decides to engage in a war, let them.
I will stay neutral.
So you, Meshak, would, because you're a pacifist, not support a war to free the people from a terrorist supporting government?
Forget love for your enemies, where's your love for your neighbor!?
Should we have tried to love Hitler, Saddam, bin Laden, or any of the many other evil people instead of going to war with them?
You see, Meshak, pacifism is a sin.
It's extremely selfish. It's very harmful, especially to those who live under people such as Hitler or Saddam.
You should read this article, as it gives verses that show that God supports a nation that has a military, and that He supports going to war for the right reasons.

We all can be free in spirit and that's what Jesus is for.
You are not free if you don't live God and Christ centered life.
Sorry, I don't waste time to listen to excuses to disobey Jesus' teaching.
Let me ask you this. Is Jesus a good example for us to follow?
You can't live God and Christ if you keep going around teaching that the Son opposes His Father's command for His people to have a trained military force.
The Son only did His Father's will.
What does Ecclesiastes 3:8 say? The entire verse...
Sent from my Pixel XL using TheologyOnline mobile app
that has nothing to do with Jesus' word.
God's Word is the Bible. Or did you forget that?
[sarcasm]Hmmm. I wonder why God put Eccl. 3:8 in the Bible if He didn't think it was important...[/sarcasm]

All scripture is inspired by God. That means that it comes from God.
