I was reading my devotional bible and in luke Jesus speaks of selling your cloak and buying a sword. He also said however that one who lives by the sword dies by the sword.
In that case how are we to view things like self defense or serving in a war as christians?
I know Jesus congratulated the soldier ( A centurion one of the most well trained soldiers in antiquity) and Paul uses boxers and soldiers in his metaphors on faith.
I would like to know your thoughts.
Personally I see no problem in self defense ormilitary service.
