Devout Christians commit murder, rape, and robbery?

There are plenty of murderers and rapists who have found Christ and have been redeemed. You seem to think that earthly deeds are what do so. Redemption is a free gift. Anyone, even murderers can accept it.

Duane's going around committing felonies after being redeemed.

And it seems to me that, having been redeemed, he would extend the same sort of mercy to others on the lam from Mexican justice that he himself asks. No, he was perfectly OK with sending bail skips back to Mexico right up to the moment he skipped. The parable of the indebted servants comes to mind.

You seem to think that earthly deeds are what do so.

Not being a Christian, I merely expect Christians to walk the walk as well as talk the talk, or else it's just more hot air in a world oversupplied with same.
