Focus on the Family: a true focus

Ex20..You shall not kill.
Mat26:52..Put your sword into its place, for all who
take the sword will perish by the sword. (Jn18:11)

GOD's hard command to love all mankind is rarely believed, lived, taught
in the current church, witness Focus on the Family advocating, promoting guns.
GOD's hard command to love all mankind essentially prohibits willful use
of any violence to others, doing all in our power never to harm another.
GOD in flesh, Christ, plainly forbade His disciples use the sword, an almost
impossible command when clearly the circumstances were self defence only.
so
GOD, the Prince of Peace Is9:6, can never condone, justify war/violent act
by man upon man, which is all satan's evil work, being the ruler of this era.
therefore
GOD's few true people or saints or transformed or in union copy Him,
as any violent act against another is sin, and sin is death, eternally.

Rom12..I beseech you therefore,
brethren, by the mercies of
GOD, that you present your
bodies a living sacrifice,
holy, acceptable to GOD,
your reasonable service.
2 And do not be conformed to
this world, but be
transformed by the renewing
of your mind, that you may
prove what that good and
acceptable and perfect will
of GOD.
9 love without hypocrisy.
Abhor what is evil. Cling to
what is good.

11 Not lagging in diligence,
fervent in spirit, serving
the LORD;
12 Rejoicing in hope, patient
in tribulation, continuing
steadfastly in prayer;
14 Bless those who persecute
you; bless and do not curse.
17 Repay no one evil for
evil. Have regard for good
things in the sight of all
men.
18 If it is possible, as much
as depends on you, live
peaceably with all men.

19 Beloved, do not avenge
yourselves, but give place to
wrath; for it is
written, "Vengeance Mine, I
will repay," says the LORD.
20 Therefore "If your enemy
hungers, feed him; if he
thirsts, give him a drink;
for in so doing you will heap
coals of fire on his head."
21 Do not be overcome by
evil, but overcome evil with
good.

GOD in love desires global harmony, peace, unity based upon His holy law of love, so any
transgression against His law will result in His holy judgement, yet no war is holy-just.
