He is referring to bringing a message that would set unbelievers at variance with believers. 1 Like |

MindHacker9009: Mr Man/Woman, you don't have the holy spirit! Let me interpret it for you! In Zephaniah 2:12, “You Ethiopians will also be slaughtered by my sword,” says the LORD. So in the above, The LORD aka Yahweh has sword! But Jesus doesn't have any o! He's the prince of peace but he's one with the father who has sword! 1 Like |

MaxInDHouse: So you mean "I did not come to bring peace, but a sword" is an idiomatic expression Jesus was using. It's common sense if you are not old enough to know that Jesus was not using idioms. |

AntiChristian: You got Zephaniah all wrong because according to MaxInDHouse, Zephaniah spoke using an idiom. And according to LordIsaac, Zephaniah was referring to bringing a message that would set unbelievers at variance with believers in Ethiopia. |

MindHacker9009: You mean The Ethiopians Wil be slaughtered by setting unbelievers up with the believers just like the last election wey Muslim-Muslim were being fought by most Christians? Na sword be that? Anyways, it's okay o! See another sword below: I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and makes war. His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns[diadems]. He has a name written on him that no one but he himself knows. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. "He will rule them with an iron scepter." He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. (Revelation 19:11-16 NIV) |

MindHacker9009: Yes, he fought Jews, Christians, idolators as they fought him. Jesus had no battalion unlike Moses and Joshua! And Jesus was definitely not the same yesterday today and forever! |

AntiChristian: So why did he not just keep his war in his town why bring it to Africa which led to Africa being behind Europe in science and technology when Egypt and Mali had advanced technology as of that time but are now lacking behind as your prophet did not keep his war to his own town but brought it to Africa. |

MindHacker9009: Do you mean Muhammad brought all the wars in the old testament? Was Muhammad involved when Hitler killed Jews? That American shooter that killed several people was he inspired by Muhammad? Think na! |
Re: Was Jesus A Soldier Here? by MindHacker9009(m): 9:55am On Oct 29, 2023 |
AntiChristian: Did the Old Testament take the wars outside of Isreal. The wars in the Old Testament were kept within Isreal and was not taking to Europe, Africa and Asia. But can you say the same of your prophet. But Muslims say it's fake that Hitler killed Jews Think na. |

MindHacker9009:The Sword is God's judgment which brings disaster to those who are against Him. 5 “Give this message to the people of Judah: Tell everyone in the city of Jerusalem: ‘Blow the trumpet all over the country.’ Shout out loud and say, ‘Come together! Let us all escape to the strong cities for protection.’ |

MindHacker9009: Am i the owner of the teaching? Why are you so dumb? Jesus is the OWNER of the teaching so what he said about tearing families apart has affected me too so how do you expect me to say what the owner said when the command he gave me was to make peace with everyone? 1 Like 1 Share |

MaxInDHouse: You are the one so dumb, if not you should able to knock on people's door and tell the what your master Jesus you so believe in has told you. Next time you knock on people's doors tell them the truth as you master Jesus has told you that [you did not come to bring peace, but a sword]. Also [tell them to sell their cloak and buy a sword] like your master Jesus has told you. |

MindHacker9009:There you go again reading without grasping! @ Matthew chapter 10 and Luke chapter 22 In those verses you quoted Jesus was talking to his own disciples not preaching to strangers and the sword he told them to buy isn't physical swords otherwise it would have been on record that Jesus disciples also killed people! 1 Like 3 Shares |

When common sense is missing! In a book you read about a man saying he did not bring peace but sword so you concluded that he must be responsible for killing but the same person commanded his disciples never to raise weapons against anyone and there is no record of his disciples fighting people with swords. All these is RECORDED in the same book! How come an intelligent person failed to grasp that the man in question never meant physical sword is what really baffles me. 1 Like |
