Take out the Lord's name being used in vain (Ex. 20:7), and it's a good love song (1 Cor. 13:6). Make (Christ-like) love, not war, but there's certainly a time and place for everything (Ecc. 3:1-8).

In my opinion, Switzerland has the best policy with their commitment to neutrality (1 Thess. 4:9-12), as well as (should've been ethical) banking endeavours (Deut. 15:1-11, Lev. 19:14-15, Luke 16, 1 Tim. 6:1-10).

“I sincerely believe that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling futurity on a large scale.” ~Thomas Jefferson, American founding father, writer, and 3rd US President.

Pay off your debts, save as much money as you can, and sacrifice luxury to make it happen (Luke 12:13-21, Matt. 6:19-24, Prov. 12:9, 22:7, 1 Tim. 6:1-10). This is absolutely required in times of war. My apologies for thinking out loud, but I think this needs to be said. God bless!
