Going to war to take revenge or for vengeance is NOT a just war.

If you adjoin yourself with a national policy you make it personal.

These weren't people that attacked the Israelites. These were the people God just told them to destroy because they were in the way of His plans. He's God. He can do stuff like that.

So God can kill innocent people if they are in His way?
So God can murder, but we can't...unless it is in the national interest? Is that what you are saying? Where do you get that in your Bible?

He's God. He can do whatever He wants. Whether you believe it, or care to admit it, God ordered the deaths of untold thousands, maybe more, people, so He could establish Israel as a nation. Since you agree that the God of the NT is the same God of the OT, then we are obviously talking about Jesus.

I cannot believe God wants us killing each other. There must be a higher road for God´s people.

Sister Alvear, there is a big difference in killing someone and murdering someone.
