Biblical Morality of Self-Defense and Warfare

The Bible has a lot of war in it.

And it may be hard to read sometimes because of all the fighting, but it does give us information about that subject matter. You can’t be in favor of war but against self-defense. I’m here telling a story of someone who defended torture to me but said that all forms of self-defense were evil and unloving. It’s hypocritical to believe in torture but not self-defense, on a principle of “violence is wrong and don’t close your heart.”

It is immoral and hypocritical to practice nepotistic statism and defend your relative (or anyone) for committing various forms of torture for a military force as if that was OK, but then to say that self-defense in all types and forms, even pepper spray or boxing, are evil immoral and demonic and should not be practiced.... but then again it’s also OK for your son Timmy to be in a military. That’s hypocritical, right? Yes.

Long story short, it is moral to fight in the military, war is not murder, torture is immoral and unacceptable in any situation and any degree, not only is self-defense moral but Biblically substantiated and very likely even Biblically advised by Christ Himself, there is a spiritual differentiation between wartime battlefield conflict and peacetime civilian conflict: with different rules, one of the names of Jesus Christ as God is Yahweh Saboath, Yahweh God of Armies, War God Jesus Christ: Jesus God of Armies, Jesus God of Hosts. Jesus has armies of militarized armed Weaponized angels were ready to do battle for him at the drop of a hat and that with great prejudice and efficiency, and not in a metaphorical sense either. I forgot to mention that Nimrod was a mighty hunter before the Lord which implies that not only did he have a relationship with the Lord but that he was a hunter in good standing with God and that his hunting lifestyle pursuit as a naturalist (teddy Roosevelt?) was part of his relationship with God. You can draw upon Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and God as your spiritual source of power as a warrior in training and on the field, and that you can be a mighty man and a warrior just like the Bible says and talks about in this way. That’s what I have to say here today. I have no tolerance for someone who praises king David for using the sling against Goliath, but condemns someone for literally using slings today for target practice.

It is wrong to twist scripture. it is wrong to ignore scripture. And it is wrong to deny scripture. It is wrong to make ultimate judgments based on one’s own opinions and influences but in conflict with scripture, in conflict with the body of Christ and with the Holy Spirit and with Jesus Christ himself. Your will against God‘s word. It’s wrong to take the reins of God’s word and steer that horse in a different direction of your own will. It’s wrong to tell God how he must interpret Himself.

I may not be perfect but I know my God and I love Him and He loves me and I know that he’s good. I don’t need to say anything to them as my defense, and if they choose to prosecute it then Jesus Yeshua Christ Himself will be their opposition and opponent in the courtroom. Will such people mount up to stand in the place of Satan as the accuser? Do we pursue God‘s Light, or a different “light“ of someone else’s devising that sounds and feels and appears holy religious and righteous but is not?

I deny here and now and in perpetuity and retroactively into the past any permission whatsoever by any being whatsoever to use my image voice or other attributes or articles of me whatsoever for witchcraft and spiritual warfare of any kind whatsoever and in any way.

Finally let’s address the elephant in the room: that it’s that The evil position which I am assaulting is nothing but (nepotistic) statism. Statism: One of the biggest sins condemned in the Old Testament and one of the greatest sources of evil in the modern world.... and throughout history. Worshiping a state as if it were God. Son Timmy does not have special permission to do Evil because he’s working for the state, and the state has no permission to do such evil things in God’s eyes.
