Description

In this solo episode, Blake continues The Chorus in the Chaos series on the Ten Commandments with an in-depth look at the Sixth Commandment: “You shall not murder” (Exodus 20:13 ). While seemingly straightforward, this command carries deep theological and cultural implications.


Blake explores:




  • The biblical definition of murder vs. killing




  • Why human life is sacred—rooted in the Imago Dei




  • Scriptural contexts for justified killing: self-defense, war, and capital punishment




  • How anger, jealousy, and hatred are precursors to murder




  • The broader implications for issues like abortion, euthanasia, and suicide




  • The Christian duty to not only to avoid murder but actively preserve life




  • Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 5 on heart sins and loving our enemies
