Bible Question:
Are Christians meant to be push overs, non aggressive, passive and non warriors allowing injustice to go on without action? Consider the following Scripture:"my followers would fight for me" (john 18:36) and (Jeremiah 5:28)They do not plead the cause, The cause of the fatherless; Yet they prosper,And the right of the needy they do not defend. |
Bible Answer: Using Johon 18:36 to support aggressive action against your ememies is not valid. As his kingdom is not of this world and we as christians are not of this world but of his kingdom. Our purpose is to pray for thoes who hate us and do good unto our enemy. All things that are evil are caused by satin thought man and we are to fight against satin throught god (Christ) power and strength That has been given us by salvation and recieving the holy spirit that lives in you. Us the power and authoity to combat satins activities. Fear not for I am the lord you God! |
