While Christians are told not to murder (Exodus 20:13) or even harbor thoughts of anger (Matthew 5:21-22), there is a place in Scripture where we are commanded to kill. Death is the only desirable result. Yet, the object of our hatred will be hard to kill so we are to give every effort to put it in its coffin. What are we commanded to kill?
Colossians 3:5-6 (NLT)
Colossians 3:5-6 (NLT)
"So put to death the sinful, earthly things lurking within you. Have nothing to do with sexual immorality, impurity, lust, and evil desires. Don’t be greedy, for a greedy person is an idolater, worshiping the things of this world. Because of these sins, the anger of God is coming."
