The members of the Megiddo Church do not believe it is right to take life in war because Jesus condemned it. For this reason we are conscientious objectors to military service and do not serve in any branch of the Armed Forces. However, we do not resist authority or show disrespect to our Government.

As an alternate to military duty we offer to serve under civilian direction in work of national importance, such as farming, forestry, hospitals, etc.

 

Basis of Our Position

1. Jesus commanded His followers not to use the sword.

2. The Bible forbids all vengeance, retaliation, and all feelings of hate.

3. We must not resist authority but obey the ruling government.

4. Shame your enemy by acts of kindness.
