Should Christians be allowed to own a gun legally?

[HealthAndHappiness]

If you need a gun, get one. Or you could trust God to protect you. Personally, I don't have one and I've never felt the need. That may because Australia is not obsessed with guns, unlike some other countries.

Probably Americans....

I'm in the South. Yes, there were lockdowns for a time. It's close to normal now. It does vary from state to state. That has nothing to do with gun ownership. Tyranny is an emotive word. COVID was spread all over the country by a few people who did not take quarantine seriously. The human and social cost has been enormous. That's the tyranny imposed by a few selfish and ignorant types on millions.

We have those too.

That is a very interesting prophecy.

Well yeah but when has things ever been this bad in history??

It seems like he's working hard to get the world behind his plans for sure.

I think we will be going into the tribulation until the wrath of Gods judgements. After that He will send Satan to be bound a thousand years and then he will be released to gather those who do not want anything to do with God, deceiving those nations. I think Revelation
Chapter 20 is what you're referring to.

This will happen first..

God only knows if this is nearly upon us. It's going to get a LOT worse if that time is near.
This looks like the first time in history where it's logistically possible with the technology.
And then eventually...

Yes those are the 2 chapters. Its also the gospels where Jesus spoke about the end of the world.

Unfortunately its a sign of the time God giving people over to reprobate minds.

Do you mean the guy I talked to who was peacefully carrying a handgun, or those who have been in the news commiting mass murder?

My question is very simple. Is it okay for Christians to own a gun legally for protection purposes? I would love to hear what other people has to say in regards to that.

I personally believe that we dont need a gun, but at the same time, arent everyone entitled to protect themselves? Now, you see where the confusion is with me lol

I would say yes. You are saved from an eternal Hell but since you are here in this world you gotta do what it takes to prolong your life. I wasnt pro gun before but have been convinced of the merits of gun ownership by some very passionate Americans.

What about passionate Americans like THIS, who don't think it's a good idea for you to have a weapon? These guys have careers where they put their lives on the line for their pay.. Maybe we should cut them some slack?

This would be the first person to tell you to just trust 911.

Indeed, men are to be the righteous leaders and protectors of the family and so many are so wimpy they wouldn't know how to defend anything, many states here are returning rights to the people correcting this, my heart goes out to you "subjects" in Canada.

No...

I'm trying to find the congruence and logical conclusion as to how these things fit together as a one causing the other or have anything to do with each other.

Faith in God doesn't have anything to do with owning or not owning a firearm.

There are no roads connecting the two together.

There are plenty of reasons people have firearms and there's no bar to having one as a Christian unless you think you would be tempted in so owning said gun to go rob a bank or commit murder. But if the fact of owning said gun is not a temptation to do evil then it's perfectly fine to own one (or more).

I don't know if I told you this, but I used to have a martial arts school. I helped folks to learn the use of weapons to defend against attacks, muggings, robbery, etc.
Women and Children were taught escape and evade techniques to prevent obduction.
To take the philosophy that they should not learn how to escape and defend against kid knapping or murder, because to do so would not be "trusting God", is ludicrous.
That would make young David a bad guy for resisting Goliath. That would make the angels who saved Lot and his family from being raped by all the city, sinful angels rather than protector's of the Lord's righteous people.

This interview with Dr Gary Kleck slipped through the censors. Volume is a little low, but hopefully not too low to hear. He did the foremost research on the subject that I'm aware of. He even interviewed career violent felons in prisons what their views were. The lady i last posted kind of sums it up.

He is definitely wrong about background checks. I give credit where it's due, but must disagree with that last point he made. If background checks were required for personal transfer or sales between individuals, this would not reduce crimes. All that it would do is to provide the most powerful criminals with the personal information of every compliant citizen owning a firearm. This is how every draconian mass murderer has disarmed populations.

I forget who threatened Americans with Nuqes if they didn't turn in their guns. Can someone refresh my memory with a name please?
I don't recall it being XiJing ping.
