Bible Question (short): Does God justify Murder,

Question (full): sounds like once saved always saved,

he stated, and i quote,
Lifer, let me get in on this. I want to address two things here. First 1 Jn. 1:9. This is something all Christians should do. When we sin, it hinders our fellowship with God. The meaning of confess is to agree with God. When we confess our sins to God, we are agreeing with Him that what we did or didn't do is wrong, like He says it is, and that we now agree with Him on it. All our sin was paid for on the cross, but we still have to confess our sinfulness to Him and call upon His as Savior (Rom. 10:9-10) before we can be saved. The main problem with unconfessed sin is the consequences we face here in this life and that goes farther than lost followship, you can cut off your arm, and be forgiven for it, but you want have an arm anymore. So we confess our sin to put ourselves in agreement with God and to help us see more clearly the area's of our lives we need to work and get His help. Compare also the teaching of Jesus to Peter in John 13:1-15, esp. verse 10.
dear WDC, having read this, and as a new convert to chritianity, i'm led to believe that once i profess to believe in Christ Jesus, all my sins, past,present and future, are already forgiven and paid for. Having said that please consider the following scenario;
I deliberately kill someone, not just anyone but A close loved one of yours, and do not ask God for forgiveness, that i will still be accepted into heaven. please answer. this sounds to me as if murder has now been justified by my professed belief, as it pertains to Christ' finished work on the cross.
Does God Justify murder. And would someone please tell what Jesus means by depart frome me ye that work iniquity, and just who is he talking to. Matt. 7:15-23.(sounds like false prophets and hypocrites to me)
God's faithful Warrior.
