They took this scripture to mean that if a Christian was drafted in wartime, he would be obligated to put on a uniform, shoulder a gun, and go to the front, to the trenches.
Nad said sellest kirjakohast aru nii, et kui kristlane võetakse sõjaajal sõjaväkke, on ta kohustatud panema selga mundri, võtma püssi õlale ning minema rindele kaitsekraavidesse.
