Okay! Will do then.

Whether you’re claiming nonresistance or passiveness (went back and re-read your definition 🙂 ), I don’t think Jesus is either. He didn’t fight those who were bringing him to the cross, but that was because of his purpose of being there. He was there to die for our sins, and be our substitutionary atonement. But we see that when he saw the un-holly work in the temple, he was actively resistant of that. Whatever it was he did there, was forceful.

And on top of that, it’s not that Christ is against government… He set up a law for Monarchs. I believe (which is different from an opinion), that as Christians we are to be active in being torch bearers, for the kingdom to come. We share the gospel, we protect the innocent as is seen in Psalm 82:4 “Rescue weak and needy people. Help them escape the power of wicked people.” Proverbs 24:11 “Rescue captives condemned to death, and spare those staggering toward their slaughter.” It’s part of being torch bearers.

Thus… I hold myself back before the dam breaks and I don’t stop like I said I would. xD

So… just so you know, I do have more to say, if you ever feel a burning to take this back up. 🙂 But I shall stop.

@theinconceivable1, that doesn’t you and I can’t continue. I’d love to keep it up, if you would!
