Let's look at the Sixth Commandment........

“You shall not kill” (Exodus 20:13).

At first glance most people will say "not guilty" to the Sixth Commandment of the law. But Jesus said, “You have heard that it was said by them of old time, You shall not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say to you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment” (Matthew 5:21-22). Jesus taught that being angry is just as bad as actually killing, so we must learn to control anger and other emotions, such as hate, envy, jealousy and greed. The Bible further adds that if we hate someone, we are murderers (1John 3:15). God counts hate as being guilty of murder.

The Lord’s Prayer, tells us to pray daily to forgive anyone who may owe us something and to pray to be delivered (not give in) to the temptations (desire to do wrong) of evil. By forgiving others and turning towards God we can stop anger, hate, greed and fear from becoming murder. Is there someone you don't like? Someone who you do not want to see in heaven? God wants to see none perish, do you feel the same way? (2Peter 3:9), (John 3:17).

The Lord’s Prayer - The New English Version

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours. Now and for ever. Amen

(Genesis 9:6) says, “Whoso sheds man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.” This shows the value God places on human life. God made man in His own image and life is a precious gift of God.
