The way we perceive the entire concept of ”war” is very different today from how it was perceived only 200 years ago, nonetheless 1000 or 2000 years ago. War today is generally condemned, but throughout history, it was a place of virtues like honor, strength and courage. The old testament is full of it — God not only tolerates war, but commands it. Jesus said he came not to abolish the law, but to fulfil it. Not once did he condemn war as a concept. His messages of peace and love were always about the individual, never about the collective. “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.” (Matthew 10:34)
