Admin	gun control -- it's simply not biblical Posted : 23 Mar, 2021 03:02 PM the bible was written long before the invention of any type of gun, so the phrase “gun control” will not be found in Scripture. However, the Bible records many accounts of wars, battles, and the use of weapons. Warfare is presented as an inevitable part of living in a fallen world (Mark 13:7; James 4:1), and weaponry is a necessary part of warfare. Weapons in the Bible were also used for personal protection. In some parts of Israel, robbers were common (see Luke 10:30), and many people carried weapons when they traveled. Carrying a weapon for self-defense is never condemned in the Bible. In fact, it was mentioned in a positive light by Jesus Himself on one occasion (Luke 22:35-38) Christians are called to submit to governing authorities, and they are to obey the laws of the land (Romans 13:1-7; 1 Peter 2:13-17). This would have to apply to gun laws, too. If American gun laws change, American Christians should submit to these changes and work through democratic means toward any desired alternatives. The Bible does not forbid the possession of weapons, and neither does it command such possession. Laws may come and go, but the goal of the believer in Jesus Christ remains the same: to glorify the Lord (1 Corinthians 10:31) Post Reply

I thinks its in Acts chapter 29 somewhere , where it says - Always have TWO HANDS (GUN CONTROL) securely on your pistol when you shoot any criminal that will harm your person and or family! AMEN! Seriously rsvp, its all about disarming America, then Tyranny will take over. OK. Its the 'new world order' by the elite that is being pushed for MANY MANY years! Communism and or socialism and so much more, you name it! Post Reply

Jayzeee View Profile History	gun control -- it's simply not biblical Posted : 25 Mar, 2021 03:28 AM Many things proffessing Christians do are not biblical, but some will twist & turn it to try and make it look palatable. I personally don't understand the obsession Americans have with firearms, especially when statistics show that they are more likely to be used against a loved one in anger....:-) Post Reply
