SWEET FREEDOM DAILY DEVOTIONAL: Take Up Arms, So Says Jesus



  
(AUDIO) Sarah Palin: The Bible Proves Jesus Is A Backer Of Open Carry

SWEET FREEDOM DAILY DEVOTIONAL: Take Up Arms, So Says Jesus


He said tho them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.” - Luke 22:36


I encourage people to carry a gun…because a cop is too heavy.

Jesus told His disciples to be ready to defend themselves. He wanted them armed in case they had to beat back thieves, cutthroats, and other bad guys. They didn’t hide their swords; they were, you might say, practitioners of open carry!

Jesus wasn’t delicate, vulnerable, or timid. My husband, Todd, often points out that all those much later artistic depictions of Jesus with long shiny hair, flowing robes, and flip-flops give exactly the wrong impression. Jesus is Lord. He is King. He is a warrior and our protector. He is God Almighty. He is our fortress, our refuge, our strength. He withstood the devil. He triumphed over death. His Word is victory.

Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. – Luke 22:36 (KJV)

Today, remember that God always wants what is best for us – and that includes our safety. We should follow the example of His disciples and be ready to defend ourselves and our loved ones from evil.

Peacemakers are not pacifists.

Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. – Luke 22:36 (KJV)
