We believe that it is not mandatory for all to have a weapon, only prudent. We believe if a thief breaks in at night and you kill him, you are not guilty of bloodshed. We believe that God makes the weapons and for a purpose. Isaiah 54:16. We believe the means of Gods protecting may include you and your weaponry to fight to stay alive. 2 Sam. 22:32-40. We believe that there’s a time to fight, and a time to go to war. Eccl. 3:3, 8. We believe that we should be prepared, trained to fight (2 Sam. 32-40) and on the lookout (post a guard). Nehemiah 4:9. We believe that we are like sheep among wolves and we are to be wise as serpents. Matthew 10:16. We believe that the sword was the choice weapon in the days of Christ and is equal to a firearm today. We believe Satan’s trap is to get people to believe “God will protect them”, so when He doesn’t, they become mad at God and lose their faith. Jeremiah 37:8-9. We believe it’s a God given right to protect yourself and your loved ones.
