   "them"? This is "Cornelius". Notice how you simply copied and pasted   
   your previous response, without regard for the current context? Your   
   answers are not based on what the Bible teaches, but on stupid lies and   
   false reasoning.

   Stupid, twisted liar. It says he was "a devout man who feared God".   
   Someone who has a career serving in the military would not be "devout"   
   and God fearing, if serving in the military were regarded as sin.   
      
   --   
   Have you heard the good news Christ died for our sins (†), and God   
   raised Him from the dead?   
      
   That Christ died for our sins shows we're sinners who deserve the death   
   penalty. That God raised Him from the dead shows Christ's death   
   satisfied God's righteous demands against our sin (Romans 3:25; 1 John   
   2:1-2). This means God can now remain just, while forgiving you of your   
   sins, and saving you from eternal damnation.   
      
   On the basis of Christ's death and resurrection for our sins, call on   
   the name of the Lord to save you: "For 'everyone who calls on the name   
   of the Lord will be saved'" (Romans 10:13, ESV).
