> And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 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. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. (Revelation 19:13-16)
> If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. (Romans 12:18)
But a blanket rejection of force is totally at odds with Scripture and the nature of God.
> The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name (Exodus 15:3)
Such a God is not a God of Pacifism, even if He prefers to save violence for when it is truly necessary. It is abundantly clear the Worldings who claim their "god" is a god of love (which they dont even know the proper meaning of) and tolerance (which is a vice) do not worship Christ, they worship (((Liberal Secular Humanism))) and are trying to reconcile the way of the (((world))) with the way of Christ, and as a result have abandoned Him.
The fact that Jesus can be violent and murder children does not mean that you are supposed to be do the same thing, because he's god and you're not. Simple logic.
> That’s because they follow a different Jesus than the one depicted in the Gospels, says [Kristin Kobes] Du Mez, who is also a professor of history and gender studies at Calvin University — a Christian school — in Michigan. They follow the Jesus depicted in the Book of Revelation, the warrior with eyes like “flames of fire” and “a robe dipped in blood” who led the armies of heaven on white horses in a final, triumphant battle against the forces of the antichrist.
They make it sound like Avenging Revelation Jesus is a different person and/or doesn't/won't exist.
She even wrote a book about it - *Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation*.
But yeah, a lot of people struggle to reconcile God's justice and His love. Although, if one meditates on on God's holiness, man's sinfulness, and Christ's mercy, there is no contradiction. Thank God for Jesus Christ, who reconciles to God, though we are totally unworthy in ourselves:
> Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, **who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ**, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; to wit, that **God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself**, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. (II Corinthians 5:17-19)
When Christ returns to judge the world, those who tried to separate the holy God from the loving God will find how great their error was. Those who reject God's mercy will reap his wrath.
This shouldn't be so difficult when God describes Himself in ways we can easily understand.
If someone harms an earthly man's family, that loving, gentle, kindly family man may suddenly show wrathful violence towards his enemies the likes of which you've never seen from him - this is not some sudden lack of love on his part, but rather a display of it.
God chooses to describe Himself as our Father and also says He is like a husband to Israel - God is comparing Himself to what a man does for his family and says that He is like that for us.
That hag clearly hasnt even read the Gospels if it think the Jesus who told the Jews He would destroy them in His parables for their wickedness and the Jesus who actually did destroy them are two separate Jesuses. I utterly despise how these freaks twist scripture to deceive the innocent and then claim it is us who are the heretics.
