That is a funny
thing for a pacifist to say isn't it?
Joel 3:10(NKJV)
Beat
your plowshares into swords And your pruning hooks into
spears; Let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’”
Once again we have a
passage in the OT that seems to contradict those who think Jesus is a
pacifist. If you believe as I do that
God and Jesus are always in agreement then this passage once again backs up my
contention that Jesus was not a pacifist.
The passage above is telling God's people to arm up and get ready for war as they return from their captivity in Babylon. A pacifist would not be arming for war. So either we have a disagreement between God and Jesus or we have proof that Jesus was not a pacifist.
