in the rush to condemn & hold mercy from the guilty, is it possible we have fallen short in our own willingness to be merciful at all ??
miss atkins is dying of brain cancer. if she hasn’t sought & received the forgiveness & mercy of GOD in Christ for her crimes or character. her life imprisonment is only a sad beginning to a terrifying eternal destiny.
perhaps we should hold off on our armchair meting out of punishment & pray that she won’t be another statistic swallowed up in hell.
