Well, your title and tone grabbed my curiosity. Then after reading what you wrote you have my attention. You make a great point. We do not want to land in a spot that makes it easy for the deep state fucks to label us and say "see I told you so". They are trying to create that narrative and some may be falling into their trap. It's good that you're pointing it out as many lose sight of this as tempers start to run hot. Getting pissed is to be expected when our country is being destroyed/taken over from within.
Absolutely.
Put your sword away as Jesus commanded.
He had plenty of armed guards, why did he let them arrest him?
Because he would be acting as if he were attempting to be king, insurrecting, as you would.
Paid agitators in the crowd. God damn it's not like they've updated their playbook in 2000 years.
Don't let them drag us down to their level.
They want an "incident" a Boston massacre, a tsarist guard shooting into the crowd, they need something to justify the CHINK army being brought in.
So don't give it to them.
Let it play out.
Plenty of time to do a terror later if need be.
Why did Jesus make his followers sell their cloaks and use the money to buy swords when they arrived at Jerusalem? It's hard to understate the importance of a cloak back then. People lived and died over their cloaks or lack of them, and Jesus made them trade them in for weapons.
Peter used his sword when Jesus was arrested. Jesus then immediately pulled a 180, said "put away the swords I made you buy for some reason", and undid the damage Peter did to the Roman's ear. This is the last mention of the sword.
So why did Jesus make his disciples buy swords? So that they could be armed while watching their leader being tortured to death?
Because they were being labeled as insurrectionists to the roman empire.
Jesus was labeled as a tyrant trying to overthrow the romans.
If they had violently opposed the arrest it would have brought the entire roman army on top of their heads and the jews would never get the blame.
Jesus sacrificed himself to protect his followers and to expose the plot.
