Presented at Curwensville Alliance on 10/11/21 by Pastor Steve Shields.
Do not murder. Why is murder wrong?
Because God said so!
Because of the Golden Rule. If you don’t want to be murdered, then don’t murder.
Because human life is uniquely sacred.
Because murder destroys what God values.
Seems like an easy command to follow, but is there more to the command than just not killing someone?
Jesus says in Matthew 5:21-22 that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgement.
So how do we turn our hearts toward life? We keep a cool head. We leave the revenge to God. We choose to love and note hate.
