Jesus is on record (in the bible) for telling the disciples to carry swords...

I forget the exact passage, but he tells them to take care of themselves

It was illegal for non-Romans to have swords then. And he was advocating they go buy Roman swords. So, basically the big J was a big fan of assault weapons that they people weren't allowed to own.

This passage does not mean what you are saying it does, but Jesus condoned self preservation for others. He, on the other hand, did not follow His own advice. Praise God for that!

It is not this black and white. Christ was, is, and ever will be, and while divine, He was not all powerful when he lived on Earth. He was a man who could be tempted, feel pain, etc. It is complex. This is what makes his sacrifice all the more beautiful.

With legions of angels at his disposal I doubt very much that Jesus would feel the need to arm himself. For those without this divine hook up.... well you know that story.

Considering HE is divine, no HE doesnt need a weapon..................but you will never hear a Liberal say that The Savior, who can call a legion of angels at a word, and raise a man from the dead, doesnt need one because of those reasons. The rest of us mere mortals do, and I'd venture a guess that HE has no problem with us protecting ourselves

Reminds me of this car I would see all the time at my old job. It had bumper stickers such as:

Jesus was a community organizer, pontius Pilate was a senator.

Just another white woman voting for Obama.

Rainbow flag.

Obama 2008.

Obama 2012.

Reading that article, the ignorance of Christianity is pretty shocking.  Pacifism has always been a strain in Christianity, but it has always been a minority strain.  There is literally 2000 years of theology on the topic but this idiot thinks it is an issue of evil conservative politics.  It's really telling just how ignorant the NYT author is of THE major intellectual force of the civilization she is living in.

Jesus told them to get sword because he was supposed to be found among "transgressors"

No, Jesus would not wear a sidearm.

It's funny, Jesus told the other dudes he was with to have swords, but he didn't get one himself. It's almost as if he wanted to die, or that he knew his death would result in something big for somebody......... Man, I just have to wonder what he died for......

John 18:10 & 11 is more to the point.  When the romans come to arrest Jesus:




10 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.)




11 Jesus commanded Peter, "Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?”







He doesn't say "OMG SWORDS ARE EVIL".

If we follow Christian theology:

Jesus is God.
God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.
Jesus made similar threats about towns that didn't listen to his word.

So, no, Jesus wouldn't wear a sidearm, in the same way the dudes in nuke silos don't wear sidearms.

I don't know if Jesus would wear a sidearm, but he sure supports my right to decide for myself.

He also told somebody to sell his cloak to afford one, so I think yes.
