Message: “What We Are” from Tom Leonard

Main Point: The Lord loves us and has given us His terms for us to follow to show that wee love Him and to enjoy His blessings! Murder = A premeditated, deliberate act of taking a person's life I. What this command is not about: - It is not prohibiting killing animals (Genesis 9:3) - It is not prohibiting capital punishment (Leviticus 24:17-22; Romans 13:1-5) - It is not prohibiting a nation from going to war (Ecclesiastes 3:8) II. How this command applies to us: 1. God says NO to premeditated killing 2. God says NO to suicide (Romans 14:7, Job 14:5) 3. God says NO to mercy killing (Job 12:10, Hebrews 9:27) 4. God says NO to abortion (Psalm 139:13-16)
