52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
But again Jesus rebukes his apostles for using violence, so I am unsure what you mean.
The beauty of Christianity comes from it being a religion of victims. There is no earthly reward for following Christ.

Sounds like you're preaching tolerance again. That is not proper in the religion of Christianity. You are told to fight for what you beleive in until such days as you are persecuted for your religion outright, in which case that is the day you lay down your sword and accept death.
I am not sure who is teaching you otherwise, but they are doing you a dis-service.
