biblestudy: The Commandments (Part 14)
You Shall Not Kill, Part 2
John W. Ritenbaugh
Given 23-Sep-89; Tape #BS-TC14
Description: In this fourteenth installment of The Commandment Series (the second focusing on the Sixth Commandment), John Ritenbaugh reiterates that mankind does not have(nor ever had) the prerogative to determine standards of righteousness, including whether war is justified. God clearly demonstrated that He was willing to fight Israel's battles for them. Neither ancient Israel nor modern Israel has been authorized to wage war. God's purpose (as well as His promises to our patriarchs) will stand regardless of whether Israel presumptuously chooses to go to war or not. Many biblical examples illustrate that when the leader put his faith in God and submitted himself to God's rule, God supernaturally protected His people. As Jesus lived as a human, he modeled for us a life of restraint and non-violence. Ambassadors of a foreign power do not become involved in another nations politics or wars. When the Kingdom of God becomes a kingdom of this earth, Jesus Christ (along with His resurrected saints) will permanently put an end to all rebellion and conflict. (72 minutes)
