Violent?
Can you be violent as a christian? The answer may surprise you - Yes indeed!
You have only one real enemy - the devil (1 Peter 5:8, Revelation 12:10). The oppositions from people, situations etc are only symptoms of the real problem. It is also said that when you discover your assignment in life, you discover your enemy. Feel free to be violent in your prayers and when engaging the weapons of our warfare (Ephesians 6:10-18). To the world we must show, the fruit of the Spirit: Love, joy, peace, gentleness etc; just like our brother, the Lion and the Lamb - our Lord Jesus Christ.
