1 | Why Wrong For Us and Right For God? | Ex 20:13 | bowler | 208047 | ||
We all know murdering, killing is wrong that is not even much of a discussion. Murdering is killing someone. God said the life blood will be required of all those who kill someone. He never said there was a right reason for killing someone. Then God commanded Irael to go commit mass genocide in going about gettig rid of the pagan nations who were in the way of Israel gaining the promised land and in other situations. How is it that killing anyone for any reason is wrong, but then God says to go do it? Isn't this an expample of God being outside the Ten Commandments in terms of that He does not have to obey it, as in it does not apply to Him, but not as that He is somehow breaking it? What do you think? blessigs abound, bowler |

2 | Why Wrong For Us and Right For God? | Ex 20:13 | Morant61 | 208050 | ||
Greetings Bowler! You wrongly equate 'murder' and 'killing'. All murder involves killing, but not all killing is murder. We know that God cannot sin, yet He COMMANDS the killing of some people. God cannot sin! God is Holy! We need to stick to what God's word says when we decide on these kinds of issues. For instance, you wrote: "How is it that killing anyone for any reason is wrong, but then God says to go do it?" Where exactly does Scripture say that killing for any reason is wrong? Ex. 20:13 forbids murder, but not killing. Other passages, lay out some guidelines for when killing is justified or not. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Tim Moran I can agree with all that you have said here in how you laid it all out with those scriptures there. Define murder and define killing please, using scriptures. Thank you. blessings abound, bowler |
