Fighting = Kingdoms of Earth
Non-Fighting = Kingdom of Heaven. This might be a corrent interpretation of John 18, though the statement My kingship is not of this world; if my kingship were of this world, my servants would fight, that I might not be handed over to the Jews. I think the correct interpretation is to look at this context and say Non-Fighting So Jesus Would Be Free To Be Handed Over To His Enemies = Kingdom of Heaven! Gosh!

Jews = Perpetrators
Jesus groups all those against him as Jews, when his own disciples are Jews! In John 18.

Servants = Disciples
Jesus refered to his servants in John 18, but there is no mention of servants in the Bible. However, there is lots written about him having disciples and these are seen very much as religious students. But Jesus claims that his relationship with them is an employer and servant. Interesting!

Pilate entered the praetorium again and called Jesus, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" Jesus answered, "Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?" Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have handed you over to me; what have you done?" Jesus answered, "My kingship is not of this world; if my kingship were of this world, my servants would fight, that I might not be handed over to the Jews; but my kingship is not from the world." Pilate said to him, "So you are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Every one who is of the truth hears my voice." Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again, and told them, "I find no crime in him. But you have a custom that I should release one man for you at the Passover; will you have me release for you the King of the Jews?" They cried out again, "Not this man, but Barab'bas!" Now Barab'bas was a robber. ( John 18:33-40)
