Romans 13:4 supports the role of authority in maintaining order. Jesus' instruction to His disciples to "buy a sword" (Luke 22:36) highlights the implication of being prepared for self-defense in a world where threats may exist. The commandment "You shall not kill" (Exodus 20:13) relates to the moral imperative of protecting life, suggesting that self-defense is a legitimate right when life is threatened.
