What about all the times in the book of acts that the apostles were arrested, beaten, or persecuted for their faith and they did not fight back.
Key phrase there....

But how long would you wait to see if the Spirit would guide you in that sort of direction?
I would hope the Spirit would give me a sense of which way to go almost instantly.... while we're talking hypotheticals (almost always an exercise in futility) you would simply stand by and watch your wife and children be brutalized, tortured, and murdered by lowlifes that break into your home?
