Can't see any hits reffering to JC commanding us to take up our swords though?
I can see this
'Put your sword back in its place," Jesus said to him, "for all who draw the sword will die by the sword.'
Matthew 26:52
(PS I guess if JC turned up today, he would no doubt be dismissed by many as a 'bleedinh heart liberal)

And He said to them, "When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?" So they said, "Nothing." Then He said to them, "But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one. For I say to you that this which is written must still be accomplished in Me: 'And He was numbered with the transgressors.' For the things concerning Me have an end." So they said, "Lord, look, here are two swords." And He said to them, "It is enough." -Luke 22:35-38
Jesus would be a liberal? Are you nuts? You think He would advocate gay marriages? You think He would advocate murdering innocent babies? You think He would advocate drug use that sends your mind on a trip, open to outside demonic influences? You think He would destroy things at "peace" rallies? You think He will be rooting for Saddam Hussein and Palestinians?
Get real.
