Unjust killing and immoral war support

Tier 1 - Hard Disqualifier

Material support for unjust killing or bloodguilty state action.

Principle: Prohibition of murder; justice; magistrate under God.

Scripture: Psalm 106:37-40, Isaiah 1:15-17, Micah 6:8, Matthew 5:9

Reformed rationale: Civil authority must punish evil and protect the innocent, not launder bloodguilt through procedure or distance.
