Jesus did say those things. OTOH, he also at one point advised his disciples to arm themselves:

He said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. It is written: 'And he was numbered with the transgressors'; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment."

The disciples said, "See, Lord, here are two swords."

"That is enough," he replied.
Luke 22:36-38

Let me ask you a question - do you think Jesus teachings should be the basis of our governmental policies?
