Theological note: The measure bears on the just use of the sword, which Scripture entrusts to rulers for restraining evil and defending the innocent (Romans 13:4). General equity asks whether lethal force is authorized by lawful constituted authority and kept within the bounds of just defense. The self-defense carve-out preserves the defensive use of force, while the authorization requirement reflects the concern that war-making be submitted to the representatives of the people rather than undertaken unilaterally.
