You posted random verses out of context.To find out how Islam should be put into practice, you have to look to the actions of its role model for mankind i.e. Mohammed, which in turn allows you to live in accordance with Allahs will, in much the same way as any Christian, who looks to Jesus as his role model.
The ways and example of Mohammed proves he was a military leader, who led his followers into battles, “to proclaim Islam over all religion” as the Quran commands in 9.33. Mohammed used military strength to bring people to the Islamic faith, as the authentic ahadiths report,
Bukhari:
Volumn 004, Book 052, Hadith Number 065.
Narated By Abu Musa : A man came to the Prophet and asked, “A man fights for war booty; another fights for fame and a third fights for showing off; which of them fights in Allah’s Cause?” The Prophet said, “He who fights that Allah’s Word (i.e. Islam) should be superior, fights in Allah’s Cause.”
Narated By Abu Huraira : Allah 's Apostle said, " I have been ordered to fight with the people till they say, ‘None has

the right to be worshipped but Allah,’ and whoever says, ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah,’ his life and
property will be saved by me except for Islamic law, and his accounts will be with Allah, (either to punish him or to
forgive him.)"
Sahih Muslim 33—The Messenger of Allah said: I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, and they establish prayer, and pay Zakat and if they do it, their blood and property are guaranteed protection on my behalf except when justified by law, and their affairs rest with Allah.
Tabari 9: 82
The Messenger sent Khalid with an army of 400 to Harith [a South Arabian tribe] and ordered him to invite them to Islam for three days before he fought them. If they were to respond and submit, he was to teach them the Book of Allah, the Sunnah of His Prophet, and the requirements of Islam. If they should decline, then he was to fight them.”
Quran 9.29
Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Apostle, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
Does Islam promote violence?”
According to Islamic sources the answer is, yes it does.
Can you post each one again with the few verses before and after it and then discuss them in context please.
