You have to put on your tinfoil hat of delusion to become a soldier of christ.

Confirmation makes you a soldier of Christ helps give you strength to defend your faith against the enemies of the church.

Jesus supposedly went around feeding & healing people, didn't he? I don't remember him having any soldiers. If you want to be a soldier, maybe you'd like the killing, raping, and pillaging in the Books of Kings.

Do you realize how crazy that sounds!
Christ was a believer in PEACE!
Christ would be disgusted if he knew there were Soldiers of Christ.
He told you to love thy neighbor and He told you to not kill.

You become a soldier of Christ after you accept Him as your Lord and your Savior. All who have accepted Jesus are saints and in His army.
Ephesians 6
The Armor of God
10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

A soldier trains prepares and is willing to give his life for his king. The fight is against sin and evil. And we win.

Pro: They help eliminate some of the overpopulation problem.
Con: Unfortunately, sometimes the Hutaree and Roeder types target worthwhile people instead of just other religious nutjobs.

You must be born-again to go to heaven. That means surrender to Jesus as your Savior. When Jesus comes into your life you are born by the spirit of God Himself.
