Christians, would you kill for God?

[TaraJo]

Christians believe all murder is wrong. Murder being unlawful/ unjust killing.
God telling you to kill someone wouldn't be telling you to murder. Murder would be telling you to do what opposes God. Taking life lawfully would be perfectly OK. You need to work out your confused understanding of the text.

Ah, perfect example, right there. You're saying "murder," which you seem to define as "unlawful/unjust killing," is wrong, but killing because god told you to is ok.

So, again, let's look at how that works out in the real world, shall we?

This man, sincerely believed god talked to him and wanted him to kill the leaders of the LDS church. He also had a lot of other crazy beliefs that involved blowing up the state of Missouri and driving to Canada on a tractor. He got these beliefs, so he says, from god. To this day, he STILL believes he's the only person alive, on earth, who has actually talked to Jesus Christ, and he's been posting these kinds of crazy things on Google+ and Facebook.

Now, me, whenever someone claims to me that some unseen force wants them to do something, I tend to question things. In this case, he seems to be paranoid schizophrenic and the right medications could probably bring him back into the realm of 'not-quite-so-crazy.'

But if you believe in god, that change things. See, what if god actually did want him to do these things; how would you, or I, or anyone else, be able to prove otherwise? Would we ask god ourselves? How do you interprete the inevitable silence we're going to get as a response to our prayers? And maybe the best question yet, what is the practical difference between god actually talking to someone and a legitimate schizophrenic episode?

Prayer: It's how you make it acceptable to talk to yourself
