should we fight?

Someone posted this on their Facebook wall. 


This is where I stand on that. My reply:

 I love David's attitude....1st Samuel 17:26 David asked the men who were standing near him, "What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and gets rid of Israel's disgrace? Who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should challenge the army of the living God?"... God equiped righteous men to be warriors. Although it is true that only love can kill hate, not all will accept love. Not all accept Christ who is love. It is because of love that we do not tolerate evil. It is because of love that we stand up for justice. It is because of love that we fight. The problem that I've seen is that people have grown cold. Hate has entered into the hearts of men who are supposed to be for God. We must get this straight, fighting does not always equal hate, and sometimes not fighting equals hate. If you have to fight, fight for righteousness, fight for justice, fight for love.
