Christians Who Own Guns Make No Sense
Okay, I understand if you want to own a gun, because you think it will protect you from bad people, and you think violence is the way to solve your problems. In that case, you should worship Satan, because Satan hates everyone.

But maybe you would rather live a more peaceful existence and don't really care if you live or die, because you realize there's more to the universe than physical life/death. In that case, you should follow the example of Jesus (who was a pacifist).

What makes no sense to me are people who think they can promote violence (by owning guns and/or fighting in wars) and be "Christians" at the same time. My theory on these people is that they're so scared to die that they want the gun to protect them, but they also think that invoking Jesus will somehow give them a good afterlife in "Heaven" in case they do get killed (and they know they'll eventually die of old age anyway).

People, you can't get into "Heaven" simply by saying someone's name. If you're spirit isn't ready, you're stuck, and owning a gun is no way to make your spirit ready. You're just clinging to a physical existence of pain and misery. You're damning yourself.

It's like Joe Smith when they came to hang him - he immediately fire on the crowds with his gun. Suddenly "faith in the Lord" takes on a new meaning

Idiot, Jesus wasn't a pacifist. He was pretty mad in the temple, and corrected some people.

On his return he will return with a rod of iron and conquer.

a weapon, and the ammunition (smooth stones) that God told him to pick out.

A slingshot/gun, different times still lethal weapons.

Re: Christians Who Own Guns Make No Sense
While Jesus was a big proponent of loving God and your neighbor, turning the other cheek, etc., He also told his disciples to sell their stuff and buy a sword.

I do not believe that Jesus was a "pansy", nor did He expect His followers to be, either. yoda

I consider myself a rarity and i thank the Lord he helped guide me on the right path and as a True and few real Christian i do not own a gun. nor want a gun. Allthough i guess i can see owning a gun if you go hunting for food or like to shoot for a hobby but id rather give that money to a starving child or a family in need and read instead. But hey thats just me :)

As a true christian you know we are living in the end of times and you cannot stop Gods will. Nor do you think you can stop death. Fact is when its your time to go... its your time to go.. i think this is where the movie Final Destination derived from. but anyways thats my 2 cents:) which the copper there made out of is prolly worth more then the actualy pennies.

So are you a pacifist and reject all weapon ownership for all people?

If so, would you stand there and do nothing as someone attacked/raped your wife/daughter/son/etc?

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14937842


Peter was a hard headed one wasnt he lol, but Jesus loved him the most and in the end He got it. remeber when they where sitting at the beach and Jesus said to peter 3 times "do you love me more then the rest" and he said yes jesus 2 times, then on the 3rd one he started crying and asked jesus "Lord that known everything and knows i love you why do you ask me this when you know i love you the most" see Jesus knew it would remind him of when he denounced him 3 times befor and knew he would not do it again because his love for him and faith was stronger then the rest imo. See then Jesus told peter how he was going to die and give glory to the Lord and He did. Peter was a truly loving spirit and is a perfect example to us who are hard headed that Jesus will allways forgive you and in fact when you think you have the least faith then your the one who will have the most faith one day. This is a perfect example of what allot of people should look upon and realize that no matter where you are in your life Jesus would never give up on you and allways have faith in you and allways take care of you and be with you until the end. He loves us more then anyone can truly understand. Belive in God for he will never let you down :)

That, and Jesus was NOT a "pacifist", as the misguided OP claims.

He merely had a different mission, than the disciples. The disciples were not to die for the sins of the world.

And if they HAD just laid down and died, what GOOD would they have been, in spreading the gospel to the world?
