No, you shouldn't let him do it. If he starts planning it, call the police. If the thoughts persist, he needs to see a doctor or psychiatrist.

Jesus' message is to love your neighbour, not kill them.
Yes that is his message. But GOD has instructed humans to kill other humans before. GOD even stated to "show no mercy" in some cases. So if you lived back then you would kill for GOD yes or no?

GOD obviously. That's why I'm asking if the word of GOD was to kill somebody, why would you disobey?
Do you mean the bible or your perception of a voice? If it is the bible... Where does it tell us to kill people taking into account the fact that we are not under the law that was given the people of Israel?

So lets say your 90 year old wife bears you a son. Then a voice in your head tells you to kill your son. Do you do it?
It would seem likely if was in the place of Abraham the answer would be yes. But it wouldn't murder because in the end I would have my miracle son back. Because if only God could produce a son like that from a 90 year old woman, i'd say the only choice is to believe.

if i heard a voice in my head claiming to be God and telling me to kill someone, I would pray and ask God to save me.

Jesus knew He was to be cruxified and prayed about it that the "cup of bitterness pass" from Him but He was willing to do God's will. JESUS tells us that He came to SAVE people and not CONDEMN them.

Have you even read my responses or are you just trying to trip up my brethren?

the fruits of sin is MURDER and what you ask is MURDER and spoken AGAINST in the NEW TESTAMENT.

what if games are a waste of time. live in the PRESENT and to do NOW after reading the BIBLE and after JESUS came and redeemed the world would be WRONG.

that isn't murder it's killing.

If I lived now and had to defend myself and nation, yes I would kill.

I think you are just posting this to get a rise out of people.

If your story is true, you should not let your friend kill anyone and get him to a psychiatrist or at a minimum to a pastor/priest who will definitely tell him to not kill anyone.

GOD will provide some alternative right after GOD sees that my friend is serious about killing in the name of.
Yes, and you may be just that alternative. I think the situation is pretty serious. You should DEFINITELY talk to someone about this, his family or even the police, whatever may be more effective in stopping him from going through with his plan and also getting him the help he needs, psychologically, for HE IS DEFINITELY ON A WRONG PATH. Do it before it's too late, please. If someone says he's gonna kill someone TAKE THINGS SERIOUSLY!!!

Yes I know its obvious that's hes on the wrong path but hes like my best friend and I can't have any argument against him that's why I came here. Look basically his argument is this.

GOD has instructed humans to kill other humans in the past
All Christians think that the killings back then were justified
Well what if GOD instructed to kill in this period of time
Should we ignore this instruction?
Should GODs will to kill others only have been carried out before the new covenant?
So basically if GOD tells you to kill someone now, we shouldn't do it because GOD doesn't do that anymore only in the past?

Because of Christ revealing God at a certain place in history?

Jesus came and gave us a new covenant to replace the old one. its in Romans: How is killing someone living peacefully with them?

Romans 12:9-21 (New King James Version)

Behave Like a Christian


9 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. 10 Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; 11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; 12 rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; 13 distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.
14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. 16 Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.
17 Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. 18 If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,”[a] says the Lord. 20 Therefore

“ If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
If he is thirsty, give him a drink;
For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.”


21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. Rom 3,21

Things have changed because of the person of Jesus.

I just talked to him just now. He asked me, "is it weird that GOD told people to kill other humans back then and it was okay but now if GOD did that people think you are crazy?"
