Matthew 10:28 "And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell."
Do not underestimate the power and will of Almighty God!
Hebrews 13:8 "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever."
Christ was with God the Father before creation. Christ Himself created all that is. Christ is God. The Father and the Holy Spirit are God. These three are ONE.
Meshak decided a long time ago to look into one side of the Godhead. She doesn't know the whole story and doesn't want to. She's like a little child who places her fingers in her ears so she can't hear all of the truth.
Jesus is not His own Father, and is not all that the Father is.
Jesus is our example of what the Father desires us to be and live by.
We are no longer in the age of blood, but of the Holy Spirit.
Mat 26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
That instruction is given to the disciples of Christ.

All of these stupid things you say will be reminded to you at the judgment to see if you are that which you condemn others by.

Being a soldier [even an officer] was never a hindrance to being saved
You don't seem to know what the "Lord" means.
His Father gave Him authority to be our Lord, Savior and the Teacher.
And His Father also said "listen to Him."
You are rejecting both Father and Jesus, friend.
Jer 23:5 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD[YHVH], that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
Jer 23:6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he[the Branch] shall be called, THE LORD[YHVH] OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
This teaching is not hard to understand.
It is just hard to accept.
there are many faithful ones who have no problem understanding this simple instruction.
His followers have responsibility to spread God's kingdom to the world.
We should not get involved with the world's wicked system.
Jesus also says let the dead bury their own dead.
The world will take care of itself without God's people get involved with their wicked deeds.
Two wrongs won't make one right.

Matthew 21
12 Then Jesus went into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.
Mark 11
15 So they came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. 16 And He would not allow anyone to carry wares through the temple. 17 Then He taught, saying to them, “Is it not written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations’? But you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’
John 2
13 Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers doing business. 15 When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers’ money and overturned the tables. 16 And He said to those who sold doves, “Take these things away! Do not make My Father’s house a house of merchandise!” 17 Then His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for Your house has eaten Me up.”
The other issue is Meshak has not read the Revelation if she thinks "Jesus" is a pacifist.

You're just filled to the brim with cliches aren't ya?
Add the above to "You can run, but not hide from the truth."
Stunning.
Good day to you, sir.
That instruction was not a universal mandate for believers, everywhere, in every time.
It was said to the eleven who were certain to die by the sword of the temple guard who vastly outnumbered them that night.
LA you have nothing of real substance to add. Move along nothing to see here.
