Wouldn't stoning her or using her for target practice violate "Thou shall not kill"?

No, it would not.

The passage you refer to addresses illegal killing. In other words, while the Lord often bids us to kill His enemies, we are not to settle personal scores with murder.

Don't let it get you down. When the LORD calls his own home - or perhaps in the case of Witch Hammer's mother-in-law, when He decides your time to choose between Redemption and Damnation has come to an end - nothing can prevent that. She could be hit by a bus, slip on a banana peel, fall down a flight of stairs, or have an accident during a father-son game of catch-the-stone. The point is, God is Sovereign and knows when her time is up.

She'd been dead inside for years anyhow, when I sold her to good brother COM. Although she seems to have escaped captivity shortly after he pried open her shipping crate, I have no doubt Jesus will hunt her down and kill her when He sees fit, if He hasn't already.

Lord, but I just had a terrible vision! I just imagined the old girl, puppet dancing at the end of satan's string that she is, summoning some inner daemonic strength and slowly but surely working her way cross-country back to the Hammer Family Compound, feeding on rats and drinking from filth-strewn drainage ditches to stay alive...ever circling her way back home like some gaunt, wretched vulture.

What a nauseating thought! Well, if she turns up it won't be the first time I've set the hounds on her, but it will be the last!

Re: Antique Battle-Axe For Sale

Unless God specifically says to kill her, you can't , right ? Because you didn't mention her being gay or a witch, so what basis do you have in the Bible to kill her?

Well, she did have a small herb garden when she was younger. She grew some malodorous pagan things like rosemary, sage and oregano. Her husband let her slide by merely beating her severely, throwing her down a flight of stairs, and chaining her up in the crawl-space under the house for a couple months, thereby securing himself a place in hell. His mercy toward her was totally unwarranted and flew directly in the face of God's commandment on the subject. Exodus 22:18

Aside from that, I can't be responsible for what the hounds will do to her if she pops back up one day...my hands are clean!

Christians are not vigilantes

Romans 13:2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
Romans 13:3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
Romans 13:4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
Romans 13:5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
Romans 13:6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.

Titus 3:1 Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work,

Hebrews 13:17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.

1st Peter 2:13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
1st Peter 2:14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.
1st Peter 2:15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

Taking the law into our own hands would make us no better than batman.

I agree with you about not taking the law into your own hands, but why do so many people talk about using someone for target practice?

If God wants the old hag to survive a gunshot wound, she will. Nothing we say or do can prevent her pre-determined fate.

Ephesians 1:11 - " In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will".

Re: Antique Battle-Axe For Sale

So basically, it's okay to shoot people , because they will survive if God wants them to?

Re: Antique Battle-Axe For Sale

Athiests who go around shooting people will burn in hell, not necessarily for murder, but for refusing to adore Jesus. A True Christian, on the other hand, is always dead-center in the midst of God's will and can do no wrong. Do you really think any of us would take a shot at a senile old woman unless Christ gave us the green light?

Re: Antique Battle-Axe For Sale

And how do you know He gave you the green light? Wouldn't it be better not to do it, in case you are wrong and go to hell?

Re: Antique Battle-Axe For Sale

No. When the Spirit moves, it is best to act immediately with little or no forethought. Jesus would NEVER allow a True Christian™ to operate outside the bounds of His will, thus hellfire is of no concern to God's elite. Any more questions?

They're not interested in your what-if games (which are naught but a thinly disguised attempt to get them to question their faith ).

This forum is about the answers left for us in the King James Bible. If your question is not covered in there, it's because it's not necessary information for your salvation, and thus is not suitable for discussion here.

Re: Antique Battle-Axe For Sale

So God's now instructing you to shoot random people that haven't done anything wrong?

There is nothing random about who Jesus chooses to kill, or by what means. Haven't you been paying attention, guttersnipe?
