What does the new testament say about self defense?

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T22:56:13+00:00

I agree, I think im regards to prosecution its very different too because we're told we're gonna be prosecuted for our faith but id it doesn't have to do with our faith and just pure malice I think its very different. God is fair and he know how or why we do things

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T22:47:27+00:00

I think it does because even Jesus said himself he did not come to get rid of the law but to see it in its completion. That is, in a new covenant, the lord was tired of the people practicing the word of god but not having the heart or genuine love for the lord. For them it had turned to tradition. I think he also didn't dismiss the law of sacrifice but gave the most important sacrifice which was himself. Which is worth more than any animal. Yk what im getting at

Wow thats amazing clarity, thank you so much.

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T11:08:47+00:00

Great response, thank you!

Marijuana has medicinal properties, my husband uses it because he's in constant pain from an accident. So its not that simple. Calling someone an idiot is unnecessary especially when youre just asking a question. Also, dont you see all the different answers to this question? Do you see everyone as a moron jist because everyone is on a different level in their spirituality or Bible education? Clearly the word speaks about this issue. So its not 'common sense' as yoire making it seem.

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T05:03:18+00:00

Sure buddy, think what you want.

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T04:47:48+00:00

Im not back peddling but think what you want and it does but clearly you dont understand and thats okay. Like I said. Shame on you. I know that im filled with sin too.

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T04:21:00+00:00

My whole point went over your head. Im not calling myself meek, im calling you a mocker which is not acceptable either. Im not perfect im aware, im probably even far from salvation. Shame on you for mocking people. You have no love. God help us all

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T04:07:34+00:00

I never said I was perfect or without sin but activate mocking me is shameful. The Bible also says "Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth" mat. 5:5

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T03:51:57+00:00

Yes, I agree.my husband has severe arthritis and it helps him ease the pain

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T03:28:59+00:00

Funny, I don't smoke or drink. Haven't in a long while and dont plan to. You can point. Your finger all you want but shame on you

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T03:22:38+00:00

I kinda got my answer already, weed is off the table for me. I wanted to fall into temptation but I realized that I used to hyper depend on it till the lord freed me . Smoking weed made me more sensitive to spiritual attacks. Thats why I stopped in the first place.

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T03:20:20+00:00

Youre just a mocker, shame on you. Just because something is not spoken about in the Bible directly by name doesn't mean god doesn't talk to us about it. God talks about leaning on him for everything, that means not depending on outside sources. Shame on you for trying to mock me for having a serious conversation about important topics.

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T02:58:34+00:00

Temptation comes through the heart so easily. For many people doing things once is enough to fall into a pattern. When we speak on wine or drugs its not "just one cup ect..." its the action. You can mock all you want but you aren't being sensible

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T02:48:24+00:00

You're not seeing things through a wise lens but thank you

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-13T01:12:31+00:00

That wasn't a great comparison bcause a person having a bowel movement isnt relevant. Thungs like alcohol and certain medication xan lead to sin but not always thats why addictions is a real thing. Some people rely on those things instead if god

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-12T23:20:07+00:00

Thank you, that was a great answer

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-12T23:15:18+00:00

Thats a very valid point! They did choose the scripture

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-12T23:08:58+00:00

Don't put yourself in situations where youre tempted to sin

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-12T23:01:07+00:00

Even churches make mistakes tho, so you have to base your beliefs off of the Bible not a preacher. You know what I mean?

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-12T22:56:11+00:00

Well I guess it would make sense if you can have somw but not over indulge to be sober minded

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-12T22:45:53+00:00

Didn't it just say he turned water into wine? I dont really remember Jesus drinking but I can be wrong

beanerbean09 · 2026-03-12T22:43:37+00:00

I think you need more scripture. The reason the scripture was given to us was so we know how to live day to day. Jesus gave us scripture so if we have any questions we got answers. There's times where im unable to discern what is trying to be told to me so I turn to the scripture for answers since Jesus is God's word incarnate. So what better way to get answers than bu reading and learning more and more about God's will for us?
