I might if shooting you in the head would prevent Armageddon the next mass genocide or something, it would depend why you needed killing. But I'd have to be very sure it was the real thing and not a trick/hallucination first of course. There was an interesting film like this where a guy had these angels tell him to kill "demons" (a bunch of people) but the twist was they were all serial killers.
Come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant.
