When the Innocent Are Wounded
Kingdom Now with Dr. John Carmichael
What does it mean that God hates “hands that shed innocent bl**d”? Is this only about murder—or something deeper?
In this powerful and pastoral message, Dr. John Carmichael unpacks Proverbs 6 and reveals that “innocent bl**d” includes more than criminal violence. It speaks to exploitation, abuse, betrayal, oppression, and the crushing of the vulnerable. This episode is both a warning to the oppressor and comfort to the wounded.
From Jesus’ words about generational bl**d guilt to James’ confrontation of economic exploitation, this message exposes how violence can be systemic, relational, and even rooted in unchecked hatred. But it also proclaims hope: God sees innocent suffering. He is not passive toward injustice. He rises to defend, vindicate, and restore.
If you have been wounded, this episode will remind you that heaven recorded every tear.
If you have harmed others, it is a call to repentance, restitution, and alignment.
God hates the shedding of innocent bl**d because He fiercely loves the innocent.
Listen now and allow the Holy Spirit to heal, convict, and restore.
