Revelation 21:8 - The Murderers
"The cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars - their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."

The definition of murder is the crime of unlawfully
killing a person especially with malice aforethought.
The 8th commandment is: "You shall not murder." (Exodus 20:13)
"A man tormented by the guilt of murder will be a fugitive till death; let no one support
him." (Proverbs 28:17)
"He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them
finds mercy." (Proverbs 28:13)
Jesus said, "You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, 'Do not murder, and
anyone who murders will be subject to judgment. But I tell you that anyone who is angry
with his brother will be subject to judgment." (Matthew 5:21-22)
Jesus is saying, if you get angry with someone it is the same as if you murdered them and
anyone who murders will be subject to judgment. You should not hate or be angry with
anyone. Jesus said, "But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute
you." (Matthew 5:44)
"Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has
eternal life in him." (1 John 3:15)
If you hate, the bible says you will not have eternal life. Jesus said, "Love your enemies
and pray for those who persecute you." (Matthew 5:44)
Jesus showed his love when he died on the cross for your sins.
