I'm not Christ, and neither are you. Christ said that if man wants your coat, give him your cloak also. That is good. But I don't recall Christ saying that if a man breaks into your house and rapes your wife at gunpoint, that you should let him have his way with your daughter too. If a man pulls a gun on me and wants my car, I'm not going to [willingly] give it to him. Stealing is against the commandment of God, in case you forgot or didn't know. Christians are instructed to not condone or encourage wrongful acts. PS - Christ walked on water, do you?

Furthermore, Apostle Peter ("The Rock" on whom Christ gave the responsibility to build "His church") did in fact have a sword strapped to his side when Judas Iscariot betrayed Christ with a kiss, so the Romans would know which one was Christ, to take him into custody. Peter drew his sword and cut off a Roman soldier's ear. Christ rebuked Peter for that, and healed the soldier's ear instantly. That was because it was ordained that Christ be taken captive and be crucified on your and my behalf. Christ didn't rebuke Peter for carrying a sword. Highway robbers were common in those days. Funny how times haven't changed much in that regard.

Wooo... That's a version of the Bible I hadn't heard yet ! and one that is surprising coming from you. Where did you hear that Jesus- with- the- sword- and -knife version ? Not saying it's impossible, just interested...
