Luke 6:37-38 NIV
[37] “Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. [38] Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you .” …
If you have a problem with it take it up with the one that said it.
I don’t wish Hell on anyone.
I hope he finds Grace before he passes on.
If he doesn’t, enjoy Hell.
What a lovely journey. Manson to Hell.
The 45 year old unborn baby of Sharon Tate’s should send down a little kick for his ass from heaven.
Now, that is a heart warming story.
See, that is where I have problems with Christianity. At least in Judaism, hatred of evil is a-OK. You literally do not have any power to “forgive” anyone of anything unless 1) they sinned against you directly and 2) they ask for forgiveness a few times, sincerely, describing what they are willing to do to make it up to you. To us, hating evil is good. It’s the best purpose of hate.
Manson is 82 years old. An age far older than those whose murders he orchestrated.
He got 60 more decades than Sharon Tate. And 40 more decades than Leno LaBianca.
He was sentenced to death for his involvement in the Tate/LaBianca murders.. That death sentence was transmitted to life in prison. His life is up. There should be nothing done to extend his life beyond basic food/hydration/typical antibiotics. No surgery or modern life saving techniques should be used to try to extend his life.
He did not try to save the lives of those he chose to be murdered.
Of course I mean 6 more decades than Sharon Tate, and 4 more decades than LaBianca.
I didn’t say he didn’t deserve punishment or that justice shouldn’t have served in the form of the death penalty.
That is human justice.
God’s justice is completely different and not for us to say.
Manson lived an evil life. He also had a horrible start in life and I suspect may be mentally ill. That doesn’t justify his actions at all, but may explain them, in part.
The best is when the worst is redeemed.
We call out sin in the Hope of restoration. Warning them is in the Hope of their conversion. Deciding their ultimate fate is judging.
