Re: Willing to Learn
I've been thinking about this Negro stealing a pie problem. On one hand, Jesus did say that we should give things to people who steal from us, and I don't think he meant a butt filled with buckshot:
And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also. Luke 6:29
On the other hand, Jesus also said that good men are to defend their belongings against thieves:
And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. Luke 12:39
I have been trying to puzzle this one out, and it seems that there is only one conclusion--Luke 6:29 applies ONLY to cloak thieves, and not to pie thieves or any other kind of theif. Therefore, I conclude that the True Christian(TM) thing to do is, indeed, to buy gun.
As always, the Bible has an answer for every question!
