“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire.” – Matthew 5:21-22 ESV

“Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.”
– 1 John 3:15 ESV

Surrender: yielding to the power, control, or possession of another upon compulsion or demand.

“Faith, as Paul saw it, was a living, flaming thing leading to surrender and obedience to the commandments of Christ.”
-A.W. Tozer
