1. Killing in that context is about homicide; an act of hatred. 2. Christians are not a party to the old covenant. The new is about having love for even an enemy, and people do not murder those they love. 3. You summate with a false accusation. You bear false witness. A Christian is one who has the Spirit of God in them, and as such, do not commit murders. If one who claims to be Christian commits a murder, they show by this action they are not Christian.
