Audio taken from the live teaching "What Does the Bible Say About Self-Defense? Turn the Other Cheek" or "Buy a Sword"? - https://youtu.be/tEK8VoV9txU

We are witnessing an increase of violence around the world targeting Christians, Churches, and increasing cases of attacks and invasions during live worship services.

These wicked attacks carried out by the godless where innocent men, women, and children are being assaulted, terrorized, and even slaughtered in cold blood require a response to the biblical rights of Christians affected by violence.

Does the Bible call Christians to absolute pacifism, or does the Scripture allow for self-defense?

In today’s study, we will address these three questions:

1 - What does the biblical admonishment ‘turn the other cheek’ mean?

2 - What does the biblical admonishment ‘buy a sword’ mean?

3 - Does the Bible allow the Christian to engage in self-defense?

Key Scriptures used in today’s teaching: Matthew 5:38-39

Other Scriptures referenced: Matthew 26:51-52; Luke 22:36; Exodus 22:2; 1 John 5:11-13
