But you cannot import OT ethics into the NT. Only Christ and the NT writers can do that. And they forbid self defence using violence.

You clearly state your position for all to see. And you preach violence and bloodshed for reasons you think are justifiable. Including overthrowing the US Government.
I preach that all of this is sin and not part of the NT ethic.

But it says God kept David from killing him. Why? why not, if it wasn't sin?

I know exactly what you are saying. And I know how scripture forbids the violence you espouse.

If you can justify overthrowing the US Government for ANY REASON, show it from scripture. Even David did not kill Saul when given the chance, and he was in the same position you think justifies violence.

What business is it for a Christian to preach violence and overthrow of the government as a "Christian ethic"?

So you want hicks and riff raff to remain armed even if it means shooting up Chicago on the weekends? Some militia you got there......

But christians do not do this. Paul did not say to resist the Romans or Nero under any circumstances.

"well regulated" defines what they mean by militia. Your hicks and riff raff are not well regulated. These should not have guns.

I recall you saying you would use guns against the US government. Which for any reason is against scripture.

Only in a well regulated sense. This we obviously do not have.

Guns kill people. You are pro gun. The guns designed specifically for killing the most people in the least amount of time.

No, you want a self regulated militia. The 2nd amendment calls a well regulated militia.

You endorse violence, scripture calls for peace.

But..... according to you, we already have a well regulated militia, with all of these on the loose, apart from the Magistrate's control. When the people form a self regulated militia, this is what you get.

God puts in power those he chooses. So he does define the role of the Magistrate for us. And God also placed all the kingdoms of the world under Satan's control. And Jesus said "my kingdom is not of this world". So you are following Sa…

Prove that all of the school shootings, mass murders, gun deaths from robberies come from a well regulated militia. The riff raff doing all of this make up your only view of the militia described in the 2nd amendment.

How is the Magistrate set up in scripture? Who do you follow? Christ or Satan?

We have two areas of concern. As Christians, we don't use violence for self defence or to overthrow God's Magistrate. (You have not yet provided NT scripture saying otherwise).
And secondly, today's "militia" is not well regula…

From whom did God break off the unbelieving Jews in Romans 11? It wasn't Christ, because the unbelievers were never part of the body of Christ. It was Israel. So the broken off are not Israel. And to whom did God graft believing gentil…

I think each has a position and a corresponding position we expect in return from our claims. But it helps me to better understand the strengths and weaknesses of my positions that took years to develop. And to test new positions that are still f…

Thanks C. I think Scripture and Science are closer to each other in the area of Predestination than most Christians allow for today. I even use the Big Bang as a model for explaining chapter three of the Westminster Confession written …

I'm proving that America does not have a well regulated militia if the 2nd amendment applies to any but the Police, National Guard, or Military.

No, the militia are those the Magistrate sends for the punishment of evildoers.
“Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; Or unto governors, as unto them that are s…

I always assumed according to Romans 13, the Civil Magistrate to whom we submit is a person. And if the 2nd amendment allows for a well regulated militia, it assumes the magistrate regulates it. Since laws are for policing the masses, the masses …

You cannot follow Christ and disobey Romans 13.

You assumed Hicks with gun racks included nice guys with gun racks.

But God places all under the Magistrate. And only a Magistrate can well regulate a Militia. This is why there is a National Guard. If you want a gun, join the National Guard.
