Bible Question: when the 10 commandments were handed down to Moses, one of which said " shalt not kill " did it not mean that you were not to kill others? |
Bible Answer: Hi David, To my knowledge, the word that was used for "murder" doesn't specify one's self or others, it is simply the unjustified taking of life. Suicide is taking into your own hands what God reserves for Himself, and is sin. I've answered your questions - please answer mine, so that I can best help you. Love in Christ, Mark |
