we've all got our calling. Each man will be judged base on how deligent he is with the calling.
The calling of the soldiers is to defend.

Nehemiah with his team building the wall of Jerusalem, after being burnt down, carried out the building with one hand and weapon with the other hand. Nehemiah 4:17

David engaged Goliath the Philistine, tormenting the Israelites. He killed Goliath. 1 samuel 17.

Even in heaven, the host of heaven has soldiers defending it, headed by Archangel Michael guarding against the Satan force. Revelation 12:7-12.

19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.19:12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.19:14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

That was when God was using one nation as His special people. He is not doing so now.

For example, if u carry ur AK47 and see ur pastor who happen to belong to the enemy nation, what will u do?

If u are in the war front, and encountered ur Christian brother of another race, what will u do?

All who take sword will perish by it.

if God has called you to serve in the ministry and to preach the gospel to the sinners. And henceforth you were to be an evangelist working for the kingdom of heaven but you choose to join the nigerian army to fight in the war. Then youre commiting a grave sin
