Hi Keith,
A significant story in the Bible related to self-defense is in Genesis 14. After Abram heard that his nephew had been taken captive, Abram armed his 318 trained servants to pursue the captors. After defeating the captors, he brought back his nephew as well as all the other people and goods which were taken. Then the priest of the most high God, Melchizedek, shared bread and wine with Abram and blessed him. The lesson is clear. Abram was prepared. His servants were already trained. And Abram was blessed for exercising the right of self-defense.
