Is Kyle Rittenhouse Guilty of Murder From a Biblical Standpoint

I don't know and don't care what the state of Wisconsin says about whether Kyle Rittenhouse is guilty of murder (not that I don't care about the people and justice being done) or whether he broke gun laws or broke whatever law of men. I care about properly discerning what the right thing to do in God's eyes in this situation and leave the consequences up to Him.

This is important, because if we are to get rid of socialism, there will be no government police with special rights. Everyone will have to be held to the same standard, whether that's security guards or citizens protecting their neighbors or their own families. Does the average Christian have any idea how God's law defines murder? Does the average church teach what Scripture says? Not only do 99% of Christians have no idea (I admit I need more study and practice applying, though I have tried to study it), but if you asked the average Christian, I think many of them would be angry that I thought that there was another standard for murder other than the government's.

The Floating Ax Head as done a great job of trying to apply God's law to this situation and I'm copying and pasting here. Below, the bold letters are the Floating Ax Head author's words. The numbers are from another author that he is responding to. Unfortunately I have noticed that it doesn't take very long for links to various videos to get broken. I don't have any solutions to that.
