Actually you would have broken laws in threatening someone (silly as that sounds). The shooting at the community college in Roseburg was about martyrdom. I think christians need to start calling it what it is. so do we arm ourselves or just give in?Or follow Jesus' words and move.Matthew 10:23When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another.but little flower, there really is nowhere left to go...And I personallly torn with the subject..... do you send someone to hell that is sending you to heaven..... do you leave your wife with MS here to fend for herself because some scumbag goes nuts.... it's not a cut and dry answer. Oh I know it's not, and I've struggled for years with the same types of question. My husband took me once to show me how to shoot with a shotgun. Once I saw what it did to a milk carton I couldn't stomach it.In the last year though, through playing a game (still in alpha development I think) called DayZ, which seeks to simulate emotions encountered in survival situations - amazing how well it was doing in that regard - i've learned something about guns and I think I've overcome some of that. I found that in situations of self defense I could shot another. But in other situations no. Now in real life what will I do? What should I do? We are to be like our Lord. Jesus was like a lamb led to the slaughter. I think to accept martyrdom is the highest calling and the fullest way we can follow our Lord and King. At the same time he told us to move from place to place - which means we truly become pilgrims in this world with no lasting home or possession. And in so doing, we come into contact with more people who need to hear the gospel.Facing siffering and martyrdom is where our faith is sorely tested.He who seeks to save his life will lose it, but he who loses his life for My sake shall find it. i have decided to shoot him and hope God doesn't let him/her die. But let none of us go looking for ways to make it come up.... the last thing in the world any of us should want to do is have to reach for any kind of weapon.I did not know siffering was a word loli didn't know you were with the spelling Nazi people...
