Spot on, IMHO.

Sometimes killing can be pro-life.

This is one of those exceptional times.

“If I see that a madman is driving a car into a group of innocent bystanders, then I can’t as Christian simply wait, comfort the wounded and bury the dead. I must try to wrest the steering wheel out of the hands of the madman.”

—Pr. Dietrich Bonhoffer
German Confessing Church
EOW April 9, 1945.

Where were they when gays were being pushed off of high-rise buildings? Where were they when trenches were being dug and large number of non-combatants were being executed and dumped in the trenches?

They are all for killing babies on their expected birth date though. Shameful.

They’re going to be in for a big surprise when Jesus comes back the second time.

2 Thessalonians 2:8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming.

Where I live*, if a local gang is in my driveway planning a home invasion, wearing ski masks and armed, I have no legal obligation to wait until they are inside my home before I fight back.

(* may not apply to other U.S. jurisdictions. Consult your local laws first. ;) )

Jesus said that not everyone who calls him Lord..will be recognized as true followers...he will reject them.....why do you think he would?
Jesus never said to not defend yourself if you were being attacked in such a way which could cause your death or anyone elses....he said love your enemies.(how can you follow that law if you are dead?). How is letting yourself be killed by someone equated to loving them? Idiots.

If God wanted to protect Soleimani, then he would have done so.

There’s a schizophrenic Christian Left ... who will throw anything at the wall in hopes that something anti-Trump will stick.

How come we never seem to hear from these blowhards when it comes to the execution of the innocent unborn?

You can not be a leftist and a Christian. There is a reason that all the Marxists hate religion.

It was Soleimani Who lived by the sword and DIED by the sword.

Tell your libtard/leftard acquaintances *THAT* one if they start yammering about what Jesus would say - trying to make a major murderer and terrorist into some leftard saint.

False teachers and false prophets are the greatest sign of the last days. Jesus spoke of them 4X more than other signs like war, earthquakes, and the Antichrist

There’s a time to kill, and a time for peace.

There are weighty arguments against killing Soleimani. Perhaps his death won’t deter further Iranian aggressions. Perhaps it will further destabilize Iraq. Perhaps the USA is unprepared for Iranian retaliation.

Good thing this guy wasn't around in 1939. Am I right, Neville Chamberlain? Up high! Errrrr, down low?

Liberal “Christians” have a bad habit of swapping individual ethics for government ethics, and vice versa.

We invite all Christians to join us in denouncing this recent act of aggression by the Trump Administration.


Jesus answered, “See to it that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come.…

God sent out a lot of people with specific order to kill people in war.

“An eye for an eye” was not intended to be foreign policy advice.
Jesus believed in the Old Testament. How many times did God deliver the Israelite from their enemies in war? Jesus would not have forgotten those victories while giving the eye for an eye advice.
