>If someone tells a baby not to use scissors and then they use scissors is that hypocrisy? If someone tells a dog not to sit on the couch and then they sit on the couch is that hypocrisy?
Yes, it is.
>However He chose to let His enemies murder Him
It's funny that you consider the Romans to be "his enemies" when he had previously referred to a Roman general as having more faith than all he had seen in Israel from his fellow Jews. And if you try to talk about the Kikes being his "enemies", why did he save himself when he was in Nazareth but not in Jerusalem? So much for "Resist not evil".
>The fact is that Jesus Christ never tells His followers to commit violence
And he never tells people to abstain from violence. Your only example is
ONE incident taken out of context and used to represent his
ENTIRE teachings when he never said nor commanded as such elsewhere. It's equivalent to all the retards who advocate for forced poverty because of that
ONE rich man who Christ told to sell all his possessions
all the while ignoring that he never made that same proclamation nor demand to any of the other wealth people he met, any of the tax collectors he hung around, nor any of the Romans including the one mentioned up above ask for his servant to be healed. In fact, going back to the incident at the Temple, he outright declared that the widow who gave her two measly shekels had made a "greater" contribution to God than all the silver and the gold all the other Jews were piling up as an offering.
In addition to all of that, if Christ really was "anti-violence", then why did he leave out the sixth of the ten commandments as being "important":
<Mark 12:29-31: Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment. And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
This is
ALSO leaving out that just because people are violent with each other, that doesn't mean they're devoid of love. A father spanks his son because he loves his child and doesn't want the kid to grow up misbehaving and causing problems for others and those people coming back to punish the kid. "Civil Wars" like the American Civil War happened between family members, between siblings, that loved each other, but didn't see any or had already exhausted every other alternative in how to solve their issues. Even throughout the Old Testament, Gods slaughters Hebrews by the thousands despite being his "chosen people", and are you going to say that he was doing it without love? In fact, the
full quote made by Christ himself in Matthew 10: 34-38 doesn't sound like a very "loving" quote:
<“Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.
What's "loving" about dividing households and entire families?
Trying to legislate Christ's teachings is
EXACTLY what he was against because there's more to his teaching than just scribbles printed on a page that you can quote as "nice sounding phrases". There are reasons why he said what he said, when he said it, where he said it, and how it should be interpreted.
