BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS: What Does the Holy Bible Really Say About Killing in the Line of Duty, and in War?

by Maria Sayle-Terry

Overview

Thou shalt not kill. Is that what the Bible really says? Moses gave God’s Law to the people in Exodus 20:13 which says “You must not murder” (TLB). The Amplified Bible says “You shall not commit murder” and the King James Versions says, “Thou shalt not kill”. The word kill comes from the Hebrew word RATSACH or RASAH, which means: to put to death, kill, or murder. I understand this word to show intent. Even Webster’s dictionary defines murder as: willful, unlawful, killing. So, is a shooting in the line of duty or during war considered murder? In your heart, do you consider it willful and unlawful? Let's examine God's word together and see what the Bible really says!
