jesus was stating a parable of a king who received a kingdom
its a parable jesus was not actually telling people to do that
at least learn how to read english
KJV: Luke Chapter 19
[11] And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.
[12] He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.

Hi friend Milton, no where Jesus said so. He did not consider any one against him. He just established the right way of living to attain Heaven after death. No enemies as far as He is concerned. Only ignorant people considered Him as their enemy. If your statement it true can you give the right evidence?

Lol i get mixed up with this too. In the bible it says when someone strikes you, you should turn the other cheek or something like that. But then there are wars and stuff in the bible.
So i guess it just depends on the circumstances.

This nonsense again?
Why did Jesus say to slay his enemies?
Or is your reading abilities so childish?
@ Butterfly Christie....
I see you quote one verse and left on the true story. This was a story told by Jesus. Here is it from Luke 19.
The Parable of the Ten Minas
11 While they were listening to this, he went on to tell them a parable, because he was near Jerusalem and the people thought that the kingdom of God was going to appear at once. 12 He said: “A man of noble birth went to a distant country to have himself appointed king and then to return. 13 So he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas.[a] ‘Put this money to work,’ he said, ‘until I come back.’
14 “But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him to say, ‘We don’t want this man to be our king.’
15 “He was made king, however, and returned home. Then he sent for the servants to whom he had given the money, in order to find out what they had gained with it.
16 “The first one came and said, ‘Sir, your mina has earned ten more.’
17 “‘Well done, my good servant!’ his master replied. ‘Because you have been trustworthy in a very small matter, take charge of ten cities.’
18 “The second came and said, ‘Sir, your mina has earned five more.’
19 “His master answered, ‘You take charge of five cities.’
20 “Then another servant came and said, ‘Sir, here is your mina; I have kept it laid away in a piece of cloth. 21 I was afraid of you, because you are a hard man. You take out what you did not put in and reap what you did not sow.’
22 “His master replied, ‘I will judge you by your own words, you wicked servant! You knew, did you, that I am a hard man, taking out what I did not put in, and reaping what I did not sow? 23 Why then didn’t you put my money on deposit, so that when I came back, I could have collected it with interest?’
24 “Then he said to those standing by, ‘Take his mina away from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.’
25 “‘Sir,’ they said, ‘he already has ten!’
26 “He replied, ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but as for the one who has nothing, even what they have will be taken away. 27 But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.’”
Now if you could read, you will understand.

the last enemy is death.
will death die a violent death?
will you mourn the death of death?
me, i'm stoked at the prospect.
you don't think it is loving to remove the spectre of death from you?
