Should Christians Bear Arms For Self Defense?

With some pushing a mandated vaccine even to the point of a person not being able to buy or sell without a “Certificate of Vacinnation” points to a measure of control never before seen, in America at least. This is especially true considering the fact that there are those who plan to make the vacinnation a digital identity with some kind of “mark.”

     Writer Bill Perkins states in his article, “Digital Money and Forced Vaccines” that “they mark everyone and connect them back to a single computer.”

     Google is working on a project called “Skinmarks” that is smart tattoos making the human body into a living touchpad.

     The point I am making is that a forced vaccine could become much more than simply a vacinnation. It could lead to total control. If this sounds like the Mark of the Beast in Revelation 13, that folks is precisely what it is leading up to. With this said, would you refuse to take a vacinnation if someone tried to force it on you, without any means to defend yourself? 

     The other issue is the violence in cities stemming from someone not wearing a mask to destruction and killings on our streets. The rioters are going from city to city just to be destructive. They have already gone into neighborhoods and threatened innocent residents just sitting quietly in their homes. They are doing evil acts too gruesome to mention, and they have no regard for a human life, yours or mine. Whose to say that this would not happen in your neighborhood or on your street? 

     With the coming election things are going to get worse. If Trump wins, the globalists and socialists are going to ramp up their resistance. If he loses, they will move ahead at warp speed to advance their liberal agenda.

     Numerous Bible passages could be cited that speak of God’s protection and provision, and Christians would be wise to lay claim to them. So, does owning a firearm for self defense mean that a person is not trusting God? Before you answer that, here is another question to consider. Could you in good conscience, in the name of “trusting God,” be okay with not being able to do anything if you or your family was threatened with harm or death? 

     Did Jesus say anything about this? Yes, he did, as recorded in Luke 11:21-22. It reads, “When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own homestead, his possessions are undisturbed, but when someone stronger than he attacks him and overpowers him, he takes away all his armor on which he had relied, and distributes his plunder.”

     Yes, we as Christians need to claim the promises of God for protection and safety, and there is no need to live in fear, but just by the fact that Jesus said what he did implies, does it not, that he is not against being armed.

     The way things are progressing there could be times when you or I may be glad that we we’re armed, or greatly regret that we weren’t.

     What do you think?

Very compelling arguments.

There is a very big difference between being persecuted for Jesus and the Gospel and thugs causing destruction.

I agree with you both and will not passively allow my friends, neighbors or loved ones be attacked or forced into quarantine camps or be vaccinated against their will.

As a husband and father, I am the protector my family. Period. While I am able and have also prepared myself to neutralize a physical threat, an assault will not happen on my watch with pacifism.

Christians can be persecuted for righteousness sake, for the cause and name of Christ. I am not speaking to this but rather to the activity of thugs and criminals.

Cops come after the fact to clean up and find the perp. Only you are there to stop it timely and protect your family.

Matt 5:38 and Luke 6:29 speak of turning the other cheek which largely has been not understood well. Here's another take on that. Spoiler alert - defend yourself but don't seek revenge.... this article by Ashley y Hooker on Christianity.com has good coverage on it.
