Quote:You won't find these words you have quoted in the Bible.
You will, however, find: "Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling before the Lord."
I think that's what he meant. The Lord, through his appointed mouthpiece Paul, said that man's duty is to see to his own soul instead of baptizing others by force. He, however, followed that up very quickly and very strongly by saying that once your own soul is somewhat on track, "it becometh every man who hath been warned to warn his neighbor." So no, Christianity shouldn't be used as an excuse to kill people, but let's not pretend that "work out your own salvation" was meant to dissuade real missionary work.
FYI, I think righteous wars are justified (self-defense, defense of others, etc.)
Aside #2, I'm a Mormon, and I've never found a definition of Christian that doesn't include me.
