Apostate Christians and their second amendment rights and their guns ....... Jesus did not condone/approve of anyone to use a weapon on someone else.  When Peter used his sword on the soldier who came to take Jesus into custody, Jesus immediately healed the soldier's ear and gave Peter a lesson which future Christians must take to heart because it reflects the mental attitude of a true Christian.  Peter was most probably carrying the sword to protect himself and the group against wild animals..... or he may have had the wrong idea about self-defense (He seemed quite capable and quick to use it against a soldier).  But there is no mistaking Jesus' words when he kindly corrected Peter.

The problem about carrying a weapon is: you must be absolutely prepared to use it to defend yourself against the perpetrator who can take the weapon away from you (an added risk) and use your own weapon against you.  If you are not prepared to use it you lose it.

Jehovah often corrected Judean kings because they trusted in the sword and alliances to protect their territory.  Christians similarly must trust in Jehovah (especially in the time of the end when people will be taking weapons into their own hands to kill each other) to give the right protection and not get involved in human conflicts.

    • By the way, if you're into stuff like this, you might wanna check out https://thepythagoras.com/. They have some neat articles about ancient civilizations and their contributions to science and math. It’s really interesting how much we owe to these early thinkers.
    • The Dendera Zodiac is such an amazing piece of history. Imagine ancient Egyptians looking up at the same stars we do now and creating this detailed map. It's mind-blowing! So, what do I think about it? I think it's a fascinating blend of art and astronomy. Those ancient folks really knew their stuff. The way they incorporated their gods and mythologies into the constellations is just brilliant. And it's not just about the stars, it’s a glimpse into how they viewed the universe and their place in it.
    • FIFA's collaboration with Algorand represents a significant milestone for blockchain technology. Algorand will serve as the official blockchain platform for FIFA, supporting events such as the FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand in 2023 and the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022. This partnership is poised to enhance FIFA's digital asset management while boosting Algorand's visibility through advertising and promotional opportunities. On another note, I've been tuning into African football recently. The match between Kanifing East FC and Latrikunda United was unexpectedly impressive. African football often goes underappreciated, yet the skill and enthusiasm in these matches are evident. We can expect even more significant development and excitement in African football with increased attention and support.

      Hello, Darlene, I just love your name, I had a cousin named Darline, and had a classmate also named Darlene! It's a pleasure to know another Darlene! Especially a Spiritual Sister! There's some websites, Ministry Ideaz , JW Stuff.com, and Etsy that I use to order my yearly buttons for the Conventions! They always send me what I order, and their also Jehovah's Witnesses, that send us the merchandise we order!  You can check out these websites, and they might have what your looking for! I hope I have been helpful in assisting you, Darlene! Agape love, Shirley!😀
