Sporen, everything on that site is from the Bible.
My thoughts on the "THOU SHALT NOT KILL" is that you shalt not kill unless GOD commands you to do so.
For example;
"The people of Samaria must bear their guilt, because they have rebelled against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open." - Hosea 13:16
"Then he said to them, 'This is what the LORD , the God of Israel, says: 'Each man strap a sword to his side. Go back and forth through the camp from one end to the other, each killing his brother and friend and neighbor.'" - Exodus 32:27
I found that on the website that YOU posted. www.thereligioustruth.com.
Clearly we can see the difference that the murder/killing here is commanded by GOD almighty himself, according to the bible.
THOU SHALT NOT KILL still applies, these are apparently different situations, where it is GOD's direct will or command.

So I can kill someone. And if I believe in my heart that GOd wanted me to kill that person then it isn't wrong

Plenty of people hear voices in their head ones bound to claim its God.

Of course you have to question it, if it is from God.........
Ask yourself..............Am i worthy to see such visions???
Ask yourself .............Am i worthy to speak with God???
Ask yourself..............Is my faith,works and love of all mankind truly that great that i speak with God!!!
God does not expect any one to go and do as '''''The Voices''' tell them............
In fact these voices are our falling away from God...........It is our conscience trying to deal with our true existence.............The Devil is very good at getting his way..................
Only one can '''humble'' himself and say ''''''''''''Iam not worthy to see such things'''
Pride.............isn't it so true........
