Citiboy says:

Romans 12;19
Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God for it
is written, vengeance is mine I will repay, says the Lord. To the contrary,
if your enemy is hungry, feed him if he is thirsty, give him something to
drink, four by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head. Do not be
overcome by evil but overcome evil with good.

Lydia Bliss says:

God is my protection

Mardasee says:

In the old testament there is a passage that states that if somebody is
after you and wants to kill you that you can seek out that person and kill
him before he kills you. Also in the old testament there are the
commandments and one says we shall not kill. Um, I can kill but also I
cannot kill? Then in the new testament Jesus repeatedly says “as like he is
trying to remind us of a commandment and to drill it into us to remember”
that we shall not kill. Okay, we shall not kill but what about the old
testament passage that says we can kill to defend ourselves? Well I believe
I figured it out with an interpretation theory of mine. Lets make believe,
back in the old testament days there was a jerk who lived in a village and
he didn’t like some of the people who lived there. Then one day while
standing in a circle with others the jerk notices that there is a person
there who he does not like. Being the jerk that he is he mouths off to the
person whom he does not like and this person replies back sarcastically
“I’ll hit you over your blockhead” but he really wasn’t going to do it. But
when this person said this to the jerk the jerk then thinks to himself
“Wow, he said he is going to strike my head and that could kill me. I know
he’s just full of it but he did say it. Yippie, now I got my chance to kill
this person I don’t like and in front of witnesses who did hear him
threaten me” and then the jerk pulls out a knife and stabs and kills the
person. In words a loop hole was created within the passage that states
that you can kill to defend yourself and with this loop hole murderers were
getting away with killing people. This was probably the reason why Jesus
repeatedly instructed us again not to kill.

Well anyways I believe we do have the right to kill in order to defend
ourselves. But we do not have a right to murder.
Also I believe god will protect those who believe he will protect. Another
interpretation of mine is when Jesus responded to some of his disciples
saying they can sell their cloak for a sword if they wish to defend
themselves. What I believe Jesus was telling them here was they had two
choices. One choice is they could rely on god to protect them and stay
warm and the other choice is they can buy a sword to protect themselves but
they’re going to shiver.

SuperkryptoJanitor says:

Definitely not fight! Jesus said love NOT YOUR LIFE UNTO THE DEATH! Jesus
specifically told us NOT to pick up arms in the last days. The 12 apostles
gave us the ultimate example of how it should be done. Spreading the word
to the four winds, before the end shall come.



rivjim1012 says:

If it were just me that was under attack I would try to wittness to that
person,but I have children and a wife I must defend with all my strength
and I have a shot gun that would turn any man with half a brain when he
heard that rack of that bullet.

Stephanie White says:

I wonder if the people who are not for fighting, have been brainwashed by
their preachers? You know – the preachers that are owned by FEMA – aka the
US government.

Patriot93933 says:

I rebuke all who believe that the Lord’s people stand and be murdered in
His name. This is false doctrine. Put aside your scripture and understand
that as our Father, he would not want us to be slaughtered simply because
we are Christian. He gave us the ability to fight, to survive, to
reproduce, to share the word. Christians are betraying our Lord today by
not voting out Democrats and other followers of Satan.

In my dream, Pastors came before the gate of heaven. There waiting for them
was the Lord. They began to sing their praises. But, the gate did not
open for them. They began to cry. Lord, Lord why have you forsaken us.
Why are you not letting us into heaven. The Lord put up his hand to
silence them, turned and said, I no you not for your works are dead to me.
The Church in America is silent on the slaughter of the saints by Muslims.
The followers of Satan are in power in America, and the Saints are silent.
In fact, some have voted for them. Let those with ears hear. Rise up and
fight for Him. Fight for the Republic of the United States, for this is
His land and He prepared it for His children. Fight!

rozz2656 says:

Wow the one other vid where I agree with most antias subscribers. I’d love
to be a paladin type. Going and killing demons for god would be pretty fun
honestly.

jamie fischer says:

I’d rather die by the sword than die by torture.. you don’t look for
trouble, you just deal with it when it seeks you out!

Rob H says:

I lived in the Dallas, Tx area in the 80s, there was a young couple
that took their young son to the State Fair of Texas, they left late that
night and had to walk sevral blocks to get to there car, when they got to
there car a van with 3 black men pulled up and pulled a gun on them they
robbed the couple and took turns raping the wife while they made the
husband and son watch. a man that wont take care of his family is worse
than an infidel, There are real Devils out there people, Man Up!

Samuel Farish says:

Yes only the thieves and killers have the guns in Chicago the most
dangerous planet to live on the planet.That is what gun control gets you

Marie C says:

God helps them who help themselves…….I’m not a Christian but I do know
that that’s what the Bible says…..

BendoverBernanke says:

We must go by the Law of Yah, and the Law states “Though shalt not murder”.
The church has changed this to “kill”, which is a deceptive lie. It is your
duty as a believer to take care of you and your own.

Donnie Rucker says:

Rev 13:9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
Rev 13:10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that
killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience
and the faith of the saints.
Mat 26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place:
for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.

JAMES AMES says:

Today after few minutes 11 pm My spirit hear triumph horn blowing from
heaven.
Usually I hear triumph horn 1 to 2 times each year. Very rare I hear
triumph horn night first time in my life. I dont know what triumph horn
meaning…
Maybe triumph horn Be Ready for saints drill.. maybe telling saints go flee
be watch for God’s wraith… maybe something news big…
maybe angels are rejoice in heaven … saved souls.
Much love ( God and I love you much )
Saint James ( I am christian. My name is James )

Max Chastain says:

What will happen when the anti-christ does come what do we Christians do.
Do we go to Heaven before the Mark of the Beast/Anti-Christ or do we go to
the forest for 7 years and if so what country?

Hunter Greene says:

Christians are being persecuted, hunted, tortured and killed in China,
North Korea, the Middle East, India and parts of Africa. Those Christians
aren’t shooting or swinging their way out of death. Why do American
Christians think they are so special that they do not have to experience
the same suffering as their fellow brethren? What is the point of dying for
Christ? Did all those martyrs die in vain? Jesus said in Matthew 24:9 “They
will deliver you up to tribulation and KILL YOU, and you will be HATED by
ALL nations for my name’s sake”. Why are we acting like we have amnesia,
Jesus predicted all of this.

Two of the greatest commandments Jesus gave are to love God with all your
heart and to love your neighbor as yourself. Where is your faith? It seems
people are putting their glocks above the protection from the Father in
heaven. Put your faith in Christ and not in a gun. If you die then you will
be with the Lord. What type of spirit do you have residing in you if you go
around shooting people when you feel threatened. We are not in the
dispensation of the old testament covenant when men where fighting battles
for land in the name of the Lord, and against pagan nations who deserved
death because of their sin, just like we are NOT stoning prostitutes or
homosexuals or adulteresses to death. We are in a new covenant under grace
through Jesus Christ. You cannot use the old testament battles as an
example to go on a shooting spree in the name of “self defense”. Jesus did
not preach self defense and neither did the apostles who we are to follow.

Also, this battle is not fought against flesh and blood but it is a battle
in the spiritual realm. The battle is waged on your knees in prayer. God
will provide His divine protection if it is his will. He gave us promises
all throughout his word.

I think you are interpreting scripture in error Anita and you are sadly
misleading thousands of Christians.

seeker6346 says:

I love you sister. But i just put in twelve hours at work. I am going to
give you and other biblical truths on this matter in a day or two.

imall4god says:

Anita, I agree about this spirit or feeling of preparedness, I find myself
being more alert about a lot of things. Things like people, news, laws,
etc. At first I thought it was just me getting older and more careful. I
fully believe that the Holy Spirit will prepare and makes us alert and
watchful, as these end times get closer. God bless you, your ministry and
all you do.

lux veritas virtus says:

I’d hope I would put my trust in the Lord, not a 9mm.
Love you Anita. Hopefully we’ll meet one day soon! x

blinko656 says:

Yes. It will keep me alive to preach to otheres…:)

Marinanor says:

Take up arms if you must. Fight if your lives, and/or your family’s lives
are in danger.
The dragon won’t be taken down by our guns and bullets, but his little baby
snakelings might be.

StephanielovesJesus1 says:

YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!

rozz2656 says:

Well if gods angels will attack why can’t a human attack a demon? I see no
problem with it.

rafael carrillo says:

What happened to the 11:59 coffee cup?


ladynthedesert says:

When Jesus knew He was not going to be with His disciples much longer He
told them to buy a sword….

debbie tillotson says:

Revelation 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may
have right to the tree of life and may enter in through the gates into the
city. Love is the greatest commandment second is love your neighbor. God
forgive them. If you fight them are you doing what they want you to?
Rev.22:8 But the fearful …… shall have their part in the lake which
burneth with fire and brimstone which is the second death. Are you letting
them put fear in you? anger? ect… you need to trust God to lead you and
say and do the right thing. Did the disciple fight or did they say forgive
them?

William Clark says:

Jesus said if you do not have a sword get one! I will defend myself and
family and friends!

TheMMSpirit says:

The intent of the Lord is quite clear. “Thou shalt not murder” MURDER,
not “kill”

In the commandments, a person is found without guilt if he kills someone
entering his house at night. A man is without guilt for killing rapists.
There are several examples of such throughout the old testament.

In the Gospels, Jesus told his followers “those of you who have not a
sword, go forth and buy one” Now, why would someone need a sword? To
kill men. That is the only function of a sword, Jesus knew his followers
need to defend themselves at times, nor are his followers expected to
submit to murder or death – “turning the other cheek” means don’t respond
to insult with violence. Nothing more.

The blood of the innocent calls out to him. It is shameful for innocent
blood to be spilled…on this subject the Lord has spoken many times. 

no Aguilar says:

We will be persecuted just like Jesus was.

Evon Ramirez says:

Shall not kill!! One of the very important commandments. If you have FAITH,
and Trust in God, you will not have to make that terrible decision, in my
personal thoughts about what THE MAKER, LAMB OF GOD, reveals to me. I
believe, that even the true shared story of, Danial in the lions den,
expresses the most highs POWER, to protect us, when faced with a moment of
KILLING ANOTHER HUMAN BEING{TAKING A SOUL IN THE NAME OF GOD??} I know
there are a few areas in the Holy Bible{King James Version}, that shares
about taking up arms, against another, BUT TAKING A LIFE, IS UP TO GOD TO
DO, NOT US. God, knows what he is doing, my sister, and you seem to have
the most respectful, teachings, BUT GOD is the one to take life, and I HAVE
NEVER READ ONE WORD WHERE GOD, JESUS, THE HOLY SPIRIT, TELLS US TO KILL,
FOR ANY REASON. It is scary some, and sad, but it is up to the LORD to make
this decision, OR YOU, also believe in ABORTION, FOR WHATEVER REASON.
KILLING IS WRONG AND UP TO GOD TO ALLOW KILLING OR NOT.
Also, YOU QUOTING the Bible, and what we are to do about killing, CAN BE
OUT OF CONTEXT, TOO. “a time to kill, CAN BE PERCEIVED AS KILLING THE
SPIRIT or SOME OTHER KILLING MEANING DEATH THROUGH SOMETHING, OTHER THAN
GOING OUT TO KILL A SOUL, OUT OF THIS REALM OF LIFE.
Defending myself and/or family/friends, IN MY OWN HOME, is understandable,
from evil, BUT GOING OUT TO KILL, IS ANOTHER THING. If I am not hurting
anyone in my own personal ares, i WILL DEFEND THE BEST WAY I KNOW, BUT I
WOULD NEVER GO OUT TO BUY A GUN TO BLOW THE POLICES HEADS OFF, IN THE NAME
OF GOD!!!!!!!!! I WILL TRUST IN MY LORD JESUS/GOD/HOLY SPIRIT, AND if he
wants me to die I will just have to DIE FOR HIM, AND DOING THE RIGHT THING.
I guess, I will have to answer to GOD when that moment comes. AMEN!!!!!!!!!

Robert sloan says:

if you have the chance to stop someone who is going around hurting or
killing people and you don’t and just become another victim, doesn’t that
make you responsible for the other people he is going to hurt because you
could have stopped him but DIDN’T?

Jacob Homchick says:

the saying is you hit the nail right on the head

Gerald Mejia says:

Get ready for war world 3 july last day or agust

Jase F says:

◄ Exodus 20:13 ►
THOU SHALL NOT KILL!!

◄ Ephesians 6:12 ►
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers,
against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against
the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

Anita this is not right saying we have to kill. Again it’s not my but OUR
FATHERS COMMANDMENT!!
People wake up and pay attention to the scripture.

Psalm 118:6 “The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid. What can man do to
me?”

Matthew 10:28
“And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul:
but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”
Anita your approach on this is wrong. You suppose to be giving scriptures
GOD’s word. This is just plain fear-mongering. I’ve backed you before wen
people got on you about fear mongering but this is not OF GOD!!



Cesar Gutierrez says:

READ AND HEAR ME OUT
Where in the New Testament does it say to protect yourself physically?
Actually it says the contrary, our warfare is not carnal/physical but
spiritual.
A martyr is someone who is killed for the sake of their faith in Jesus, not
someone who couldn’t defend themselves and was therefore killed. If it be
so that we should defend ourselves, than all martyrs for Jesus have died in
vain! They went down preaching not swinging. If indeed you are saved, to
live is Christ and to die is Gain.
How is shooting or stabbing someone for any reason a fruit of the spirit
and Christ like??? God forbid! Glory to Jesus we no longer live under the
old covenant. Are we not supposed to me imitators of God? Jesus was
murdered like a sheep for the slaughter and so were ALL his true and wise
followers you can read of today as examples. You cannot find one single
christian in the bible under the covenant of Jesus that defended himself
for anything or anyone.
Jesus says if you simply hate a brother/anyone you are a murderer and in
danger of hell fire, let alone actually taking someone’s life. If we are to
love our neighbor as our self, how can you possibly find it anywhere in
your heart to kill someone you love??? Does is not say to love your enemies
also?
My bible and your bible doesn’t say that killing someone for any reason is
a fruit of the Spirit but the contrary, the fruit of the spirit is Love and
everything that has to do with love. For as many as are led by the spirit
of God, they are the sons of God, Romans 8:14. Why would any christian, for
any reason, prefer a fruit of the flesh like murder/kill, then the fruit of
the Spirit like love and mercy?
Jesus said, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his
life for his friends”. Notice he didn’t say, Greater love hath no man than
this, that a man lay someone else’s life down for his friends.

God’s Old Testament warriors killed their enemies because the wages of sin
was death, so God used his chosen nation to destroy all that were not under
the covenant of God because Jesus Christ had not yet taken the Sins of the
WHOLE WORLD, Jew and gentile, upon himself yet. Therefore his wrath was
kindled.
But the Gift of God is everlasting life in Christ Jesus our Lord, and
because of that we have absolutely no authority from God to kill anybody
because that would be killing someone Jesus died for, regardless the reason.
We need to understand we live in the age of God’s grace and mercy.

I wouldn’t like to see anyone be accountable before God for the deaths of
all those that have been murdered by Christians that were told that taking
a life was acceptable.
I say this sincerely and full heartily and beg you please take this to
heart, if it be so that the Holy Ghost is in you.
For God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.
