And exactly where in the Bible does it say his followers will fight for the kingdom here on earth?

I just quoted this a few posts ago:

...if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews...)[/b]

(John 18:36

Or do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He will provide Me with more than twelve legions of angels?)

(Matthew 26:53 NKJV)

There is often collateral damage in war that can not be avoided.

P.S. Legion

1: the principal unit of the Roman army comprising 3000 to 6000 foot soldiers with cavalry

Twelve legions would be an army of 36,000 to 72,000 soldiers with calvary.

sorry don't understand your answer, how are you going to pray for your enemies and kill them at the same time?

Israel is being attacked at present. So your advice to Israel's Prime Mininster would be to pray for the muslim extemists and do nothing more to stop them from killing Israeli citizens.

I on the other hand have no problem with the Israeli army utterly destroying their enemy, whether they pray for them or not. 😏

HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord! Holy! Holy! Holy!

Neither of those scriptures say anything about humans fighting. In fact it says just the opposite. The first Jesus stopped them from fighting and the second says the angels will be fighting along side Jesus. So you'll have to try again.

And collateral damage of killing innocent humans is ok with you? Wow!

You can prey for your enemies to lay down their arms and surrender and make peace. However, if they don't then you should uttery destroy them, like the scriptures say.

However, if it does not make peace with you, but makes war against you, then you shall besiege it.
(Numbers 31:3 NASB)

and when the Lord your God delivers them before you and you defeat them, then you shall utterly destroy them.

HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord! Holy! Holy! Holy!
(Dueteronomy 7:2 NASB)

My neighbor is not someone that attacks and wars against me. My neighbor is like the good Samaritan.

whatever, its well known that God does not listen to the prayers of those whose hands are full of blood. Your prayer would be useless!

So what does that mean? Are you now exempt from being bloodguilty when you blindly take a life in the name of your God?
You can kill aimlessly and your'e not respondsible and free from guilt?
Oh my, what a sad and very disturbing answer as you so freely condemn us for following the Bibles clear cut law "abstain from blood" and saying we are murders for refusing blood transfusions but yet you have no guilt at all of pushing some button and sending a rocket into a city full of innocent human beings and killing in mass if your God the USA told you too? Are you really serious?
I'm sure your God, whoever that actually is, is sooooo proud of you, it's offspring.

They have been offered peace, but they refuse and make war instead, so there is no guilt to be had by following the direction of the Holy Bible to utterly destroy them, including women and children.

However, you have no justification for refusing to save a life as the good Samaritan would do, because there is no instruction which says blood transfusions are prohibited.

Jesus pointed out to the Pharisees that saving a life even overruled the law of Sabbath keeping.

P.S. Another thing you fail to understand is that dropping those bombs on Japan in WWII saved lives by ending that conflict early and the people did not have to be utterly destroyed to do it. It was the threat of being utterly destroyed that did it.

HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord! Holy! Holy! Holy!
