Check the Old Testament - many kings of Israel were told explicitly by god to destroy whole cities, killing everyone in them. if you wish a specific case, try one of the most famous - King David. according to the bible (books of samuel, i believe), he spent a goodly portion of his life at war in some way or another, and he is considered a hero, and almost certainly in heaven now.
so, my question is this: how can a man who lived by the old law so obviously break at least two of the major comandments (morder and adultery - he had lotsa wives and concubines) be in heaven?
btw, the above really is a serious question, and one i have yet to hear a good answer to.
