19 Feb Self-Defense/Defense of Others and the Bible
In 1987, Florida became a “shall issue” concealed carry state, which opened a floodgate of states who adopted similar laws. Currently, all 50 states allow some form of concealed carry. This has brought attention to many theories of self-defense and defense of others.
Please discuss the following:
1. Discuss the concept of self-defense as it appears in the Bible. Can a person, biblically, justify the taking of another’s life to save his or her own life? To save the life of another?
2. Is carrying a concealed weapon biblical?
3. Are Stand Your Ground laws and the Castle Doctrine biblical?
