Texas police officer lays out biblical case for killing

[phill4paul]

WICHITA FALLS, Texas - (WICHITA FALLS, Texas) --- 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.

The book is available on Amazon.

In the early days, Eipper — a devoted follower of Christ — said he was misinformed about how Jesus viewed his mission of protection and defense. He’d been told killing of any kind was wrong, which was a troubling stance in his line of work.

After three years of intense study for the writing of his book, he is articulate on the subject of Jesus Christ and killing and eager to share it with other military and law enforcement colleagues and Christians.

“When Jesus comes back, he will be the man of war. When he comes back, there will be a whole lot of killing going on. Scripture says that (Jesus) is going to be the one doing it. Our Savior will be going to battle. Finally, Israel will see their national salvation occurring.”

Scary $#@!!

A drug war jihadist...

[LibertyEagle]

Two things he missed:

1. One, he isn't Jesus Christ.
2. Two, he is the type of person that Jesus will not be happy with when He returns.

[jkr]

yes he must kill all infidels that's what jesus meant when he said " i give you one more command, to love each other"

see right there?
love means kill without due process

talk about blind guides and wolves in sheep's clothing

oh well
KILLERS
GONNA
KILL

NEXT...

He seems to think of himself as a prophet....

“The reason I can call it ‘Jesus Christ on Killing’ — it’s the spirit of Christ that has been the inspiration for any prophet to speak or write,” he said.

[RJB]

Number 31:19 said to keep soldiers involved in killings in a separate camp to purify before again mixing with others.

We've really lost this in modern times. After wars, men would join monasteries for a more contemplative life and to do penance. This isn't just Christianity, but throughout the world. Men need a time to contemplate what had happened before raising families.

Now it's, "Get a job you bum," "Become a cop," "Can't cope? Get some drugs from the VA..." The hell holes called VA hospitals have replace monasteries. To just justify it in ones mind and move on proudly is sociopathic-- Literally, it's sick.

Our society is screwed. I really think if a police officer kills (for good or bad), he should get another job. Not just for his own sanity, but this man has a badge to prey on society with his baggage.

The cover has a man carrying a fallen comrade-- The cover can't even face his own "reality." SMH

Broadly speaking, he's got some good points. However, he distorts the meaning of the text to suit his bias. This is one reason why we have the Church folks-so heretical wackos don't make up gospels of justification for murder and mayhem which have nothing to do with the Gospel of Christ out of thin air. It seems he's informed more by Isiah and other ancient prophets than the synoptic Gospels or the rest of the NT. It's also possible that he made up his own literal interpretation of Matthew 10:34-42. However he came up with this nonsense, it's not biblical. I'm almost tempted to check out the book to see how he came up with such silliness...but I don't want to give him any FRNs. :P

For some reason he reminds me of the thug Samuel L. Jackson played in Pulp Fiction.

Sgt. Charlie Eipper has been a professional warrior in the service of his country and community for approximately 23 years. He spent three years in the U.S. Army as a helicopter pilot. He presently serves as a Police Officer with the Wichita Falls Police Department in his home town of Wichita Falls, Texas. Sixteen years of Charlie’s 20 year career as an Officer of the law was spent on the SWAT team. During his term as a SWAT team member and the supervisor of the department’s Gang Task Force, Charlie has been involved in several incidents involving the use of deadly force and killing.

Some comments on his book:

I did not finish reading this book because the grammatical errors were annoying and the ideology behind this book is quite possibly the most disgusting thing I've ever read. The author (if you can even call him that) is basically trying to justify killing people using the same philosophy evil men have used for centuries. While it is hard to compare the violence in this book to the atrocities that have occurred throughout history in the name of religion, the mentality is the same. The fact that this man is a police officer scares me and it should scare you as well. I don't have any resentment towards police officers or Christians, but after reading this it is easy to see why a lot of people do. I think the person that wrote this garbage has completely missed the point of his own religion. I would not recommend this book to anyone, except for maybe homicidal sociopaths that need to convince themselves that Jesus is okay with their vile actions.

1.0 out of 5 stars This type of person is funded by tax dollars!, April 19, 2014

It really takes some strange mental gymnastics to twist a drug war jihadist into a supposed man of God.

I don't know what scares me more, that folks of his ilk are employed in law enforcement or that many others think the same way.

I consider this book a shameful endeavor...

I must spread some rep around Tod. That was very concise.

I don't think they're going to post the review I wrote, considering it calls out the other negative reviewers' tendency to say that they're not fundamentally against cops.

I don't know if the person was or wasn't but when speaking to certain audiences you must retard your message.

Even with people who know what I am speaking of would be offended if I spoke frankly on certain matters. If I word it in fundamentally the same way, with a slightly nuanced tone they understand where I'm coming from. I can't expect someone to pick up a book or watch a documentary, or do any research as we are speaking but pushing them in the right direction, maybe they will later. Probably not.

That's more when I get annoyed.

ETA: Your comment wasn't unreasonable at all.

Hopefully a severe slap in his allegedly "Christian" mug...

By combining something the morons hold dear, the drug war, with the term they use to describe terrorists I was trying to be as offensive to the copsuckers as his tome was to me...

disagree with his tactics or not; but the late phelps had a similar strategy with his picketing tying homosexuality with our wars abroad.

It's hard to overcome years of indoctrination and ingrained culture with a few words. I'm not good at verbalizing my thoughts, so I all but gave up trying to persuade anyone via the spoken word. All I got was "You hate cops", even though I never said that and only tried to explain the abuses that take place and question the notion that a badge and uniform should give special privileges and protections to a select group.

His mission has done nobody any good. Wichita Falls is a $#@!ty run-down city with plenty of meth to go around. He'll die of old age long before his "battle" is won.
