The New Testament offers many examples of Jesus helping those in need, but as far as I know, it has no examples of Jesus encountering an aggressor who is in the act of physically harming an innocent victim.

It brings up the question that was popular not too long ago: What Would Jesus Do?

I wish there was such an example, because it would clear up a lot of confusion.

Who was Jesus before He was Jesus? Read john 1:1-16.
Who was Melchizedek ? Read Hebrews 7.
How did Jesus, through His Holy Spiri,t handle Ananias and Sapphira; did He forgive and forget? Read Acts 5.
Did Jesus allow the woman taken in adultery to be stoned, or did he stop it? Read John 8.
Did Jesus "turn the other cheek" to the den of thieves in His Father's Temple? Read Matthew 21, Mark 11, and John 2.

When Jesus returns, the time of "turning the other cheek" will be over.
Take a look at just how long "the house of Israel" shall be burying the dead that Jesus, the LORD, the Holy One, will have killed. Read Ezekiel 39.

Are you beginning to understand?
