I’m glad I scrolled the thread to see if someone posted that.
Can you imagine God with a gun... nothing BUT bull’s eyes!
Pistol packin’ pastors - way to go :o)
Barrett? No way - not for us orthodox traditionalist - He would be packing a pair of Lewis guns!
>> More foolishness from the false shepherds.
Do your homework - shepherds are protectors of their flocks. Google up “Carl Chinn”.
My people perish from a lack of knowledge. ~ Hosea 4: 6
Yep...Its one thing to know your Bible, but it’s another thing to KNOW the God of the Bible.
Sure. I missed that part of the Gospel that says Jesus offered weapons training classes to attract people.
Praise God and pass the ammo.
Here it is, since you missed it:
Luke 22:36
He [JESUS] said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.
I wish I had a laser etcher, I would love to inscribe Luke 22:36 into the slide rail of my Glock.
Jesus wasn’t telling his disciples to arm themselves as he later said at Matt. 26:51, 52. When two swords were brought out it provided a sharp lesson as Jesus rebuked Peter and healed the slave Peter had wounded.
Christians did not carry weapons or train in their use according to what Paul said.
For the rest of us, who do not have the guarantee of twelve legions of angels on call, the maxim "God helps those who help themselves" would apply.
I’ll settle for 12 rounds of 9mm 145gr JHP.
If I need more, methinks He wants to talk to me in person about it.
The only circumstance where you might need more would be if you were trying to fight your way out of a riot zone, in which case you would likely run out of luck before you ran out of ammo.
WHAT WOULD JESUS SHOOT?Hmmm??? Tough question. But I'll give it a go...
Since Jesus was modest and compassionate. And wanted to end any needless suffering, IMHO Jesus would shoot a government model 1911, 45ACP.
Not any tricked out Kimber in SS with an extended slide, laser sight, extended mag, and fancy grips. Nope, none of that gaudy stuff. Just a plain blued GI style 1911.
;-)

In the USA, we’ve just given up our status as a republic. The mainline churches are largely co opted by the Gummn’t, and are, after decades of leftist influence, dying on the vine. Get them in the door first; the Gospel will follow.
Check out this what this writer has to say about the subject of swords.

I say provide for the defense of your household. But thats just me.
