Gosh, you have excised that from its passage in a way as if to indicate Jesus was saying that Himself with respect to people there at that time. Its the last verse of a 25 verse parable - one is meant to read the whole thing to get the points made. So you are misrepresenting things, hopefully not intentionally (loadsa trolls around here, I hope u r not )
Its in a parable about the end of the Age - read the verses before. The King is God dealing with people who have rejected his authority. It is not any instruction to believers.
Luke 19:11-26 The parable of the ten minas
The He in question is a king in the parable. The king clearly represents God. Moreover Jesus is making the point that the Kingdom of God won't come immediately (at that time). This will be at the second coming. So its saying there will be a reckoning of all men - but God's reckoning. People who have led terrible lives, ignoring God's grace etc, will be in a lot of trouble.

Actually I think you are abusing Jesus' words. The New Covenant is a dispensation of God's grace that totally shuns violence (look at Jesus teaching). But God is the Judge though, and will ultimately judge all men according to His standards. Christ's death provides atonement, according to christian belief, for those who believe.

Be careful not to think like a Muslim.
Jesus was speaking a parable in your quote of Luke. It wasn't Christians who were ordered to kill those other servants, the disobedient and wicked ones. It was the second death he was referring to. You know, the one where people are sent to H**l?
So stop thinking that Christians are to act like radical murderous Muslims. Those that are, that is.

Read ALL of Luke 19. That was from a parable.

No, Jesus was not saying to kill everyone who doesn't believe.

This is such a ridiculous attack on Jesus Christ, The Son of the living God. Jesus was relating a story about some Lord who made that statement. Those of you who lie in the face of God, should beware that God strike you down for spreading your evil lies. Stop it already. As a Muslim, who believes in a false god and false prophet, you are already on your way to Hell. You only make your eternal torment worse when you blaspheme the true living God.

That is a parable about the return of Jesus and or judgement day. It is not the Christians that will do the killing, but rather it is the angels.

That's a quote from a parable Jesus was using.
