Your preaching would be illegal during the eyes of the Catholic run England, hence why you protestantism, Baptist, all you spun-off were dejected out of the England. Washington, Jefferson saw how Catholic Government control, had made witch spectacles of watching women burn & Irish men burn & be gutted right in front of little children. If this is the society you want, well megadeath it will be.

That's a very good point:1. From a biblical perspective, if capital punishment is done away with for certain crimes, do we still consider these vile acts crimes? And if so, what should the civil penalty be?2. If we mortal human beings, with flawed wisdom, are the ones to decide what the civil penalty is, then what makes it just? If we decide that grand theft auto deserves the death penalty, why would that be wrong? If we fine a child rapist $50 would that be right?

Adultery takes two. Where was the man? God's law requires that both be punished. Jesus says "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" means that the adulteresses were many and adulterers were those stone throwing men. Jesus was pointing out the unjust law. He will destroy death but never the death penalty, God does not change. It was not His law they were attempting to minister. I think you need to get your facts straight...connect the dots. Man is not the lawgiver.

What is the punishment for Treason against your own country? Most countries that I know death. The same result against God's kingdom! If you want to commit Treason against God, then your punishable by death. It is as simple as that, why can't people get that across their lukewarm minds?

junkkaddress does not know Jesus Christ very well if at all, so how can he judge what is anti-Christian? Please remember that Jesus is the author of the "Law of Moses". Junk-buddy is trying to quote from John chapter 8 and is trying to use it as evidence that Jesus didn't affirm stoning. Sadly it only proves his ignorance of Gd's laws, provision, Love and especially his Holiness. If Jesus would have approved of this stoning he would have become an accomplice to rebellion and lawlessness.

Theonomists are antichristian. Jesus says "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" implying that none is without sin, thus he destroys any death penalty for religious purposes. But these Satan worshipers claim to be Christian and teach that Christians should put idolaters to death?!?!! There is a special place in hell for such Calvinist loons.

If Man Law tells us to do something that is contradictory to God's Law, should we obey? Peter thought Not, for it is better to obey God than man. The fact the Rom 13 says that the govt. is God's minister should tell you that they are to uphold God's laws. When they don't they are disobeying God and breaking His laws. Hence, we have turned away from God's laws and have been obeying the state's laws which have departed from the foundations of Biblical law. |
