    death penalty for or against?

    (whirlwind;30131) Ryan I thought about you on my way home from work this afternoon. Where you use Christ telling the adultress to "go and sin no more," as an example of forgiveness it is very different than murder. Adultery is a sin that two people willingly commit. In other words both...

    death penalty for or against?

    (whirlwind;30112) You are a tender soul Ryan. If Christ saw fit to clean out the money changers I believe He would want all murderers and rapists to be sent to His Father where they would never again harm anyone.........Whirlwind I completley agree. but in our system it is not God who sees fit...

    death penalty for or against?

    (Denver;30106) Ah, but you can't ignore the first part of the very same chapter!Matthew 5:17-18All has not been fulfilled. Nothing has changed, Christ expanded upon the Old Testament because there is still yet unfulfilled prophesy there.You simply cannot take the personal "you" that Jesus spoke...

    Salvation, confused!

    (JonJT;30068) Hello everyone,I'm making attempts to study the Bible and understand what God is trying to tell us with greater comprehension than I have now. I must say though, that this is difficult because I'm quite scared by the end times and the mystery surrounding what lies ahead for me and...

    death penalty for or against?

    (Denver;29965) For the life of me I don't know why people turn illiterate when it comes to this verse. They'd rather choose to ignore it instead of listening to Father's Word:Genesis 9:6It's remarkably simple because YHVH said send them on the me. that verse is remarkably close to " the eye for...

    death penalty for or against?

    (BernieEOD;30043) Wrong Christ. Jesus was not a pro criminal who preached us to forgive ra[pists and allow them top keep raping, robbers to keep robbing, and murdereres to keep murdering. Your job is to lead people out of crime before they encounter the sword of the government, not to tell...

    death penalty for or against?

    (whirlwind;30060) Revenge belongs to God but He asked us to send them (murderers and rapists) to Him. Justice belongs to us, keeping that criminal from harming another belongs to us....it is our duty as human beings.If the murderers and rapists had "forgiveness, mercy, and compassion" there...

    death penalty for or against?

    N2thelight every single verse you pulled supporting the death penalty has come from the old testament law.which Jesus improved in his life. Mat 5:17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them."and how did he improve it...

    death penalty for or against?

    (kriss;29917) You can not compare the two apples and oranges one is killing of the inocent and was never and has never been allowedthe other is the sending the guilty to God and God himself said that should be the penalty as I said you are taking it completely out of context Kriss if you had...

    death penalty for or against?

    (Dunamite;29894) Paul tells us the purpose of the law. It was a teacher and a tool. The law had to teach us what sin was. Sins need punishment because God is righteous and holy. The punishment was death because it is a fitting punishment for killing someone, especially if you are perfect as God...

    death penalty for or against?

    (Peacebewithyou;29873) I'm pretty sure when they execute someone it's been "planned" in advance. Great post Dunamite. I'm with you on all points. I was just about to say that.in fact you would probably even agree with me that it is murder.
