So the real question is, is their a time to kill?(Ecclesiastes 3:1-8)1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.Ecclesiastes 3:3 says there is. So I think if the situation was such that the antagonist was truly getting ready to do something so evil like release a pandemic virus that would wipe out billions of people, and the only way to stop him was to kill him then I would pull that trigger. At the same time, if I were a soldier in WWII and had Hitler in my gun sights but in a compromised position where I could arrest him for war crimes, I think I would do the latter. So to answer your question I think killing is justifiable before God when doing so will prevent serious harm to the world or to innocent people and there is no other alternative.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 is nice. To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven… It’s poetic and an awesome Byrds song.Edit: Oh right, that’s the Byrds, not the Beetles.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 “ For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:a time to be born, and a time to die;a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;a time to kill, and a time to heal;a time to break down, and a time to build up;a time to weep, and a time to laugh;a time to mourn, and a time to dance;a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;a time to seek, and a time to lose;a time to keep, and a time to cast away;a time to tear, and a time to sew;a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;a time to love, and a time to hate;a time for war, and a time for peace.”There is an appropriate time and place to tell people about God. There are also inappropriate times and places as well. Pick good times and good places to have “God conversations” and it will go much better for you.Sometimes, God just wants you to show His goodness in action.Do a good job at your work.Be kind to your friends and family.Have fun and celebrate life.Other times you need to share the gospel. Always be prepared to share why you believe; someone will ask you. Always be on the look out for “people of peace” who are seeking after God and want answers. Be prepared to walk away from people who don't want to hear about the good news of Jesus.Most of all love people. Love is what we are “winning them to” therefore it is what we “must win them with”. No one cares how much you know until they know how much you care. When those around you know they are loved they will be far more open to hearing the gospel.
