Should Christians Defend Themselves Or Not? by Nobody: 4:00pm On Jan 02, 2012
The trending news now is the rejection of self defence by Kumuyi. So he is outrightly disagreeing with Oritsejafor. Now christians who is right? when another chaos comes will you defend yourselves like oritsejafor said or wait on God as kumuyi proposed? which one is God speaking?

We can defend ourselves within our legal rights . Security is common sense.
But theres difference between DEFENCE and REVENGE. cool

Defend ourselves, of course yes. undecided

Defence of one's life and family is of utmost importance if done in such a way as to try and escape from the immediate threat , but not to cause loss of life on the other side. If you notice I did not say defend your property, your property is not worth dying for , but your family which includes wife and children is.

Surely we do not want to Islamise Christianity , let us use wisdom, if you have none, ask God and he will supply you no end.

Remember again, defence to protect life and family while seeking for a way to remove yourself from the immediate threat is fine in my humble opinion.

Obviously vedaxcool will not agree,  grin

@flosbel spewing trash as usual.

you want to say something reasonable but you cant because you are already compromised like oritsejafor.its either you defend or escape.  bring your butt down here into the heat of the action, then you can make a wise decision.
