Re: Do you believe God has a hand in determining war?

Deborah D. Adams

I like your answer. My experience with scriptures is, all you have to do is find a verse that matches your point of view, and poof, you're scriptural and so of course, those who support war will do this. I served in the military and believe that defense is actually a deterrent to war, for instance, the cold war. To not have a defense is to invite war. But I am ashamed that our country actually started a war. We didn't start Vietnam, we just got involved, but this is worse, we actually started this one, with the support of many who call themselves Christian, who should know full well that Jesus would not approve. He allowed himself to be nailed to a cross as an example humility and if we claim to be a follower of him, we should be willing to do the same and not be starting wars.

Thanks.
