Matthew 5:21–22

9. Heidelberg Catechism
“I am not to dishonor, hate, injure or kill my neighbor by thoughts, words, or gestures, and much less by deeds…By forbidding murder God teaches us that He hates the root of murders, such as envy, hatred, angers and desire of revenge, and that He regards all these as murder.”

10. Michael Horton
“In the church, these forms of ‘hidden murder’ are tolerated, while we write our own unpardonable sins. In Galatians 5:19 right up there with sexual immorality, idolatry, and witchcraft are ‘hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissentions, factions, and envy.’ And yet, it is precisely these sour apples that create the greatest division in the body of Christ, destroy relationships, and leave our neighbors in distress.”

11. Michael Horton
“The Heidelberg Catechism spoke of the ‘fruit of the flesh’ in Galatians as, ‘hidden murder.’ Gossip, slander, back-biting, these are often tolerated in Christian circles where the slightest off-color joke would bring reprisals. Instead of bearing each other’s burdens, we seem too often to revel in them. That, of course, is part of our fallen nature: to take some secret delight in the misfortune of others.”

12. 9th Commandment
“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” Exodus 20:16

13. Three Acceptable ways we bear false witness
