@yeqtltg02 Actually, it is - Jesus Christ specifically says in Matt 10 that He came to bring a sword, not peace. Christ does not call for physical violence, but he does call for war against evil - the most basic reading of what He actually SAID (rather than what people like to THINK He said) reveals this.

The Church Triumphant (souls in heaven),
The Church Suffering (souls in purgatory)
The Church Militant (faithful on earth)

Is the Period of Mercy to expire soon?
Then follows the time of Justice.
God is Merciful, and Just.

Wow, I never thought of the Blessed Mother as fearsome.

In my own state, my governor has closed down a mental hospital leaving hundreds of the impoverished and disabled out to the coldness of the world ("group homes" euphemism for, "not our responsibility")....but I see THOUSANDS marching for their rights to have sex with their own gender with flags and music, parading and partying.
God HELP us! Why isn't ANYONE speaking up!? Every, single baptized individual should be furious. But, like in the garden of Gethsemane, no one wants to wake up.

@endo328 >> IF I was an all knowing god - I would want to make sure that my words were clear for Everyone Everywhere
God does - He establishes the Church.
Remember; not everything is in the Bible, and the Bible can ONLY be correctly interpreted in light of the Church's understanding.
The fact Jesus elsewhere says "No" to violence shows He is speaking (in general) metaphorically.

@RealCatholicTV Wouldn't a sword mean physical violence? "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword", how does this not call for physical violence? Last time I wanted to combat something without the threat of violence I didn't send it through a sword. And IF I was an all knowing god - I would want to make sure that my words were clear for Everyone Everywhere. And IF I meant for non-violence I would not use "sword", I would say exactly what I meant.

@yeqtltg02 The verse is "peace to men of good will" and Jesus leaves HIS peace (not your defintion of it); Christ's peace is very clearly shown to be the peace of victory, not the peace of accomodation, throughout the Bible.
The Bible only contradicts HUMAN false human views of peace, not the divine understanding of it.
What would give any christian church a better understanding of the christian god then someone who has read the bible? And second, wouldn't you need to read all religious texts first (as well as consider they may all be wrong) to definitively say the bible is certainly the word of a god. How do you know other supposed holy texts are not correct?

Being founded BY God; as the Catholic Church was.
>> wouldn't you need to read all religious texts first
Nope - that is a common strawman advanced by atheists. It makes no sense - the issue of proving one is right has nothing to do with others being wrong.
In any case; your questions don't speak to the point of this video - we'll end the conversation here.
