Re: Should christians believe in the death penalty

Well here we run into many contradictions in the bible.

To kill or not to kill.

Kill

Exodus 32:27
Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side ... and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.

Numbers 15:35
And the Lord said unto Moses, The man [who was found picking up sticks on the sabbath] shall be surely put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones.

1 Samuel 15:2-3
Thus saith the Lord of hosts ... go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare him not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass. Exodus 20:13, Deuteronomy 5:17

Thou shalt not kill.

Exod.20
[13] Thou shalt not kill.

Mark 10:19, Luke 18:20
Do not kill.

Matthew 19:18
Thou shalt do no murder.
