ANSWERS

1. Bible does not condemn any of these professions: it however, condemns evil practices that some members of these professions practice.

2. When the soldiers came to John the Baptist, he did not condemn them because they were soldiers; he simply gave advice on how they should live: Denounce no one falsely. Be content with your pay. Lk. 3:14.

Read ACTS 10:1-48 for proof that someone in the military force can be a good man(see also Lk. 7:1-9).

haddeylium:



Jes says 'Love your enemies and pray for those persecuting you'
Do you think a true Christian can love and pray for his enemies by waging war against them?

Why can't you pray for your enemies? Why can't you wage war on your enemies? Mind you, you also need the help of your enemies to pursue you so that you can thrive well and put them to shame with the help of prayers. If you don't have an enemy, go get one for yourself. Lemme refer you to the 48 laws of power.

What is said here implies to the study and profession of law. Some people are trained to interpret the law of the state. The goal of law is the preservation of justice in society. What serves to out order in human affairs, is good. Law is intended to ensure that no one takes advantage over his neighbour. So those who stoutly defend the rights of people are doing works of love.

In the trial if Jesus, the law was not allowed to have it's course. Pilate told the elders, the chief priests and teachers of the law that he had examined Jesus but “had not found him guilty of any of the crimes you accuse him of” (Lk. 23:13-25). Pilate wanted to set Jesus free because in his interpretation of the law Jesus was not found of any crime. The law was in favour of Jesus but the judge took sides with the enemies of Jesus and the law. (Jn 19:12-14).
We discover that before this time, Nicodemus was already seeking the aid of the law to save Jesus' fight to life. “According to our law, we cannot condemn a man before hearing him and finding out what he has done” (Jn 7:15).

When some people abuse the law, that does not make the law bad. When a lawyer who ought to use the law to protect people's right and privileges uses the law for his own selfish ends, such an attitude does not make the law profession as a whole evil. A Christian who enters the law profession should use this profession to do good to God's children to defend their rights and awaken them to their responsibilities. The law does not only defend our rights, it also calls us to do our duties, and when we fail to do so it is the office of the lawyer to call our attention to what the law says we should be doing.
