Peace Catalyst President Dr. Rick Love discusses Romans 12:18 as a one-verse peacemaking manual. "If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." - Romans 12:18
Praise God for giving us the perfect example how to live peacefully with one another! I therefore bind to hell every unequal yoke and common share with those with whom it is impossible to live in peace, binding to hell every unequal yoke and common share with those disturbing the peace of my spirit and lacking to strive to have peace with all, binding myself, my family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, acquintances, opponents, and the body of Christ to strive to live at peace with everyone while binding to hell every lack of striving to have peace with all, in accordance with romans 12:18, philippians 2:2, 1 corinthians 1:10, 2 corinthians 6:14-18, matthew 6:24, 1 john 3:10, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah!
I have been in conflict about this verse. If my family is in danger of being hurt or killed by evil people should I take matters into my own hands and maybe kill the bad guys if i have the chance?

If it is possible that your family is in danger and peace is not an option then yes Jesus has granted self defense
