Subject: We shouldn't be in the military? |
Bible Note: Thanks for your input..So soldiers and police are used for His Vengence and not ours until the appointed time. He can use anyone He chooses including president Bush and his soldiers; see Daniel 4:17 This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men. Isn't it fitting that this was spoken to Nebuchadnezzar ? Micah 5:15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as they have not heard" but why does it say 2 Corinthians 10:3,4 " For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Luke 22:49-51 "...Lord shall we smite with the sword?...and cut off his ear..and Jesus ..touched his ear and healed him. And Acts 5:39 say "if it be of God you cannot overthrow it...you might even be fighting against God.." and Rev 13:10 says " he that killeth with the sword must be killed by the sword. Here is the patience of the saints." Rev 19:11-21 Says "that HE doth judge and make war..His name is called The Word of God..out of His mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it He should smite the nations..come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; that ye may eat the flesh of kings...the flesh of all men ...both small and great..the remnant were slain with the sword of Him..which sword preceeded out of His mouth.." Eph 6:10-18 "..be strong..put on the whole armor of God..helmet of salvation...shield of faith..sword of the Spirit.." and John 18:36..if my Kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight.." Which, by the way, is why they crucified Him, they thought he was going to overthrow the government right then, not at a future date. Nebuchadnezzar The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769. |
