Being punished for a crime that has already been fully paid for is unjust.

Then open up all the prisons because the prisons are filled with people who have violated one or more of the ten commandments.

Per your logic, the punishment has been fully paid and society has no moral right to incarcerate anyone for anything.

Have you actually thought about your position, or are you just spewing out liberal talking points that you heard somewhere when you were young and stupid?

PapNew’s mistake is conflating “crime” with “sin”. Whether something is criminal is a societal question - and the punishment for the crime is also a societal question.

The Bible teaches that “the wages of sin is death”, meaning unrepentant sin. Christ did not absolve every sinner of every sin, but rather created a means for the sinner to repent and thereby avoid eternal damnation for the criminal’s soul.

Salvation does not absolve the need to pay one’s debt to society - even if that debt is deadly.

I have said nothing of the sort - just the opposite. Go back and read my posts on this thread and quit wasting my time.
