Luke 19:27 
But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them--bring them here and kill them in front of me

Psalm 2, from wikipedia half is contributed to King David while half other is for the future messiah, which is actually written in the new testament so christians believe this is speaking about Jesus. If not then wikipedia didn't do their research but then again i have read these verses myself so it looks solid.

Psalm 2:7-12
7 I will proclaim the Lord’s decree:
He said to me, “You are my son;
    today I have become your father.
8 Ask me,
    and I will make the nations your inheritance,
    the ends of the earth your possession.
9 You will break them with a rod of iron;
    you will dash them to pieces like pottery.”
10 Therefore, you kings, be wise;
    be warned, you rulers of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear
    and celebrate his rule with trembling.
12 Kiss his son, or he will be angry
    and your way will lead to your destruction,
for his wrath can flare up in a moment.
    Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Hebrews 5:5
5 In the same way, Christ did not take on himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But God said to him,

“You are my Son;
    today I have become your Father.


Ever seen Alucard with Father Anderson scene in the museum, he quotes this verse even though its a good fiction Japanese animation.

But don't get me wrong, this doesn't mean Christians should act towards violence because here is another verse that Jesus said

Matthew 26:52
52 “Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him, “for all who draw the sword will die by the sword.

So let us summarize this.

Basically if i lets say lived in medieval times, i want you to convert to Christ, rid yourself of this world and of your evil ways. I try to be reasonable, bribe you etc. But you don't want to. Well... we tried "pulls out the sword".

Thats basically what you can use to justify murder. Which is why i think its delusion for that guy at Acts17Apologetics that he clearly misrepresents or don't understand the bible or is clearly bias because of his beliefs. It was a video by David Wood where he reacted to a Sam Harris video.

In either case. I have yet seen anything that can refute the knowledge i have shared here. I would love to hear though if they can refute this as a justisification for it.

...You do understand the difference between killing and murder correct?

You get even in today's society it is not always wrong to kill another human being right?

Therefore not all instances of taking Human life is murder. The difference? the measure of the law. If the law permits it whether the law be your cup-o-tea or not it is not murder.

Wake up sport and look at really any non white western culture, you will find huge gaps in the things they do and the things you do/find moral.. Does it make them automatically wrong, just because they did not grow up in your culture?
In the Bible the term murder means the killing of an Israelite/Hebrew/Jew  by another one.  That's a bad thing and not allowed.  However, it's OK for Israelites/Hebrews/Jews to kill Gentiles and the God character demands it throughout the Bible.  

That idea is reinforced in the Jewish Babylonian Talmud Sanhedrin 57a.
