This is a common belief in modern Christendom. When asked for a biblical basis most point to where Jesus said take a sword. However many miss what happened when Peter, Mr. Macho, went to use it — object lesson.
Hi HiTech,
We’re of the same mind.
Question. If Paul was “Mr. Macho” (and the ear was put back, as you know), what about Michael?
He is a fighter for sure. Are we angels or mortals? Does God put a sword in our hand on occasion?
My personal experience is that He keeps us believers in His hand to do his will. Occasionally we meet angels. Occasionally, we might be an angel to someone else.
I’m interested in your thoughts on this.
Kit.
