Churches to get involved in Gun Control battle

reply to post by Wrabbit2000


ahhh i've been to bozeman a few times, never
considered living there myself, to flat for my taste.
I prefer the mountain side of the state.

That's kind of funny, i moved from missouri to montana
about 15 years ago..(wow has it really been that long)
But its highly doubtful that i will ever move again, unless
it's up in the hill's some where away from everyone. But
not out of montana.

Well with your outlook on things id be glad to see you
move back. We get a lot of the Kalifornia type any more
moving in and wanting to make things like they were use to.
*lol* Never works, but they keep trying.
Montana is different than the rest of the country, a bit slower
and a bit behind the times in many way's, but that is what
draw's me to it. Shoot our whole state population is less than
what many major cities are, we just passed the 1 million mark
in people last year. Now considering how much land is here
that is nothing.

I still have family in missouri, they always try to get me to move
back, but just cant do it. I love to visit missouri, and enjoyed the time
i lived there, but for me, this is home.

Good thing the government has prepared the terrain then right?


Hopefully most pastors tell the gov and the church to go to hell.

That is going to be a tough sell.
Look at the bible belt.
Think they are against guns
Plus there is that 'God helps those who help themselves' bit.

Didn't Jesus say Put away your swords?
Any church that advocates violence instead of denouncing it and saying turn the other cheek and love your enemy are not really churches. They are cults or organizations promoting gun use and proliferation and NOT advocating for peace.

Luke 22
36 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.

Jesus isn't a pacifist, he is coming back to destroy.

We aren't pacifists either by being Christians, we will defend ourselves.

That's Luke. Are you a Lukist? Follow him.
Show me Christ...as in "Christian" said anything advocating war weapons or fighting.
If you think so you read the words and missed the message. In this day and age you can make a religious message out of anything you want but you can't call it Christian if it has nothing to do with Christ and in fact teaches a contrary message. You can start your own religion. Government will still give you tax exempt status. Go religion! I think the Pope had a vision and changed his tune.

Tell that to the Jews of WW2 and before you say that things are different now please know that I would agree, they are much more evil and depraved now..
