You argue that there is a biblical support for your position, yet I too can quote scripture,
Whoever sheds man’s blood, by man his blood shall be shed. Gen. 9:6.
And will you profane Me among My people...killing people who should not die, and keeping people alive who should not live...?” Ezek. 13:19
As I said previously, it is not about prevention, but punishment meted out by society to advance the liberty of all.
We can agree to disagree, and I believe you are wrong. There are persons who by the heinous nature of their crimes have forfeited their rights. Most importantly their right to life, since they thought it acceptable to deprive another of their right to life. We as adults view the sexual abuse of children to be a heinous crime against those who have not the ability to defend themselves from such.
You sexually assault a 3 year old, and then bludgeon her to death indicates that there was an understanding that the first act was wrong and criminal and that the second act of murder was the acknowledgement in an attempt to hide that crime or make the witness against him unavailable to secure your continued freedom without having to face your fellow citizens for your actions.
I am willing to risk wrongful execution(s) for the innocent to claim some level of justice for the victim, and to help secure the liberty of all.
Yes and Jesus fulfilled the law (Matt 5:17) and that specific requirement by himself being condemned and punished on the cross FOR THE SINS OF THE WHOLE WORLD (John 1:29, 1 John 2:2).
Jesus has already been punished and has paid the full price for this man's heinous sins. If you don't believe that, then your argument is with Jesus and the Word of God, not with me.
