The problem is there are to many humans who WILL act like animals given a breakdown of law and order. If you have been here awhile you will definitely
read of those who will jump at the opportunity to steal and murder in the name of "survival". Why prepare when you can take? That is the attitude of
allot of people and I for one LISTEN to that as a warning bell.
Jesus said "turn the other cheek" not "lay down and allow others to harm and kill you and your loved ones". Jesus sacrificed himself for the
salvation of others, a noble sacrifice. Many apostles died defending the faith and not denying Christ. None to my knowledge allowed themselves and
their family to be raped and murdered for no reason just because....
Actually, I read exactly the opposite:
John 18:10 Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it, and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. And the name of the
servant was Malchus.
Matthew 26:51 With that, one of Jesus' companions reached for his sword, drew it out and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his
ear.
Mark 14:47 Then one of those standing near drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear
Jesus preaches salvation and forgiveness.... not to be a total dumbass and let evil have it's way with you. Defending your family and comrades from
evil doers appears to be exactly what Jesus's disciples would do no?
