First thing you need to know is that Christ was who he said he was.
He was not crazy, nor was he just some guy. His life was well-documented
in Jewish tradition and scripture before he was ever born. Spiritual people
from other religions saw him coming in spirit.
Yes, Christ is Messiah and Savior, but he was also something more practical.
He was RIGHT. He told us the truth. He isn't just some guy, nor was he invented.
The problem with a violent response is that you risk several sins (read mistakes).
Arrogance, lack of faith, and judgement are probably the tops.
Let's say, we are convinced that Patton Oswalt is a Pedo. What if you're wrong?
What if he was trolling, and you pick up a gun and take him out? Then, you're
just a murderer. Your pride led you to judge which led you to murder.
Let's say we are convinced justly that Adam Schiff is just flat out evil. And let's
say that in this case we are right, and someone shoots him. What if God had
a plan for his repentance and salvation? What if he has a Road to Damascus
moment and Christ saves him like he did Saul? Saul means one who is great,
and based on his family wealth and position in Congress, AS is, by this world's
standards, a great man. Paul means one who is little. Do you really want to
risk that change in AS because of your own pride and judgement?
There's a reason Christ told us to Judge not, lest ye be judged, and
by our own measure. We are setting ourselves up for judgement if we
condemn a man to death based on his current state. There's a reason
that the Bible says, Vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord...or
It is mine to avenge; I will repay. In due time their foot will slip; their day of
disaster is near and their doom rushes upon them.
Have faith in God and Christ enough to trust him. Trust him enough to
do what he said. Love your enemy. Pray for those who persecute you.
This is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
If this seems impractical to you, I'm including a practical way to do this.
This is where the real fight is. I can't endorse the course or cruise
in the video as I haven't taken them. But I endorse the man's book
as a way to DO what Christ taught.
