Something about selling your cloak....

That is the verse, and it means exactly what it says. It counsels arming ourselves but also moderation - reminiscent of Ecclesiastes. Jesus was not just the modern hippie image of love and non-judgmental forgiveness, he also gave the command you referenced and cleaned out the temple rather forcefully.
