SWAT Officer Charlie Eipper lowered his head to his rifle, peered through his Simmons scope, searched for his target, and fired.

When he killed a man in the line of duty on Jan. 10, 1999, he was confident that Jesus Christ condoned — even supported — his use of deadly force.

He spelled out his convictions — and the Bible’s support for them — in his book “Jesus Christ on Killing,” self-published March 5....

But after studying the Bible with the help of Grace Church Pastor Tom Rodgers, today Eipper is confident that Jesus Christ supports warriors and anyone acting in self-defense.

1. "Go ahead...make my day."

2. Jesus had a lot of things to say

In line with Matthew 26:52, Mr. Eipper would come to a proper end if he was picked off by a sniper.

As for killing someone in alleged self-defense, Jesus touched on that subject as well in John 15:13.

I think Mr. Eipper is quite selective in his studies.

4. Jesus never killed anyone

He did pick up a bullwhip and chase the moneychangers out of the temple, but that's as close as it gets.
