Also, another question he asked was this.
What happens to the person when they die, if they did not hear the gospel. How would they be judged? Are they only judged on the knowledge that they have of God?
(Should I have started another thread with this question or is it ok?)

It is clear that killing as put forth in the Ten Commandments did not mean killing in self defense or killing in war as the representative of a just government.
I say this is clear because at the same time the ten commandments were in place as God's moral law God instructed the Children of Israel to kill their enemies many times.
