FIREARMS


Find protection, not in possessing fire-arms, but in ‘seeking peace and pursuing it.’ (1 Pet. 3:11; Prov. 15:1; 17:14; 26:17; w84 3/1 13-15; w83 7/15 23-6) 

If assaulted, conscientiously defend yourself, ward off blows or striking a blow in self-defense to stun or incapacitate the attacker temporarily, making escape possible. (g75 11/22 11-14; g75 9/8 27-8; w68 6/1 345-50) 

If confronted by an armed robber, wisely follows Scriptural counsel and do not resist giving up any valuables demanded. (Matt. 5:39; w98 12/15 21-5; g79 10/22 7-11)   

Christian woman threatened with rape should resist strenuously, including screaming and physically resisting, where possible. Some have prayed aloud to Jehovah for strength.—Deut. 22:23-27; Prov. 18:10; 1 Cor. 6:18; w03 2/1 30-1; g93 3/8 6-11; g86 5/22 22-4; w80 10/15 3-7; g74 3/8 13-16.
