A good question. I hope that at least a few give serious answers. I'd like to read reactions from Christians. Was Jesus really a pacifist? Would he take up arms to defend his country, or his followers, or himself if faced with a foe that would not back down and struck again and again, in spite of a turned cheek?

Yes, and He did !! He loves you. He proved it by dying a humiliating death on a cross for you.
If you mean bear arms to defend his country, Israel from war. If necessary back then, or even today, Yes.
He will bear arms when He returns again !!

He wouldn't have to. Just "poof" and the enemy will be gone. Wait a few more years and watch Russia and the Arab states disappear.

He already did. He gave his life for his "kingdom."
