Re: Should christians believe in the death penalty
One things is for sure. Moses allowed divorce for far more loose reasons than in the New Testament, but Jesus said that was due to the hardness of the people's hearts. No one COULD have a changed heart back then without regeneration as we have it today. Perhaps the death penalty can be viewed the same way. People COULD NOT have a changed heart before the cross, which is why death penalty existed under Mosaic Law. Who knows if a murderer might be saved and changed today?
