I totally disagree with the Pope on this issue.  "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth"; there are those who must pay the ultimate price for their sins against mankind.  Those such as the ISIS demons; you have to kill them.  There is no rehabilitation possible because they are satan's own.

That's not the death penalty though, that's war MG

And ISIS members have converted to Christianity.

This is what I struggle with concerning the death penalty.

God wants all to be saved.

When one is executed, then one has had their chance to be saved ended by other men in the name of justice.

I think it is commendable to want them to have the opportunity to repent until God takes their life, and if we can, as christians do so, we should, for this is eternity we are talking about.

 

 

That is definitely something to consider.  I often think about such things but I just don't know yet other than I support the death penalty for certain crimes.  That might change, depending.

I do not think that anyone's life ends before they have had their chance to turn to Jesus, whether their lives are ended by man or natural causes. 

That said, Im also torn about the death penalty. When arizona voted to reinstate the death penalty, I was all for it. I was not saved back then either. In recent years, I have been uncertain about the death penalty. If I had to vote again on the issue, I think I would have voted against it. 

This is my personal choice. I dont view others with disdain for wanting the death penalty. My views against it were reinforced by my bro in laws murder. I found that I did not want his murderer to face the death penalty. It is enough that he is incarcerated for life, where he cant hurt anyone else.

Again the False Prophet- otherwise known as Pope Francis trying to Impose the Anti-Christ  political agenda  by presenting a Non-Biblical statement to deceitfully to pose as Bible Scripture.

 The translation was --- THOU SHALL NOT COMMIT MURDER.  Not thou shalt not kill

My first thought was --hmm.....why are some of his "friends" about to commit murder and the plan is so they don't receive the Capital punishment /death penalty?

Pope Francis is NOT the False Prophet.  Let's not get ahead of ourselves, okay?

Yes, I know.  But I spoke of ISIS not as soldiers on the battlefield but as captured fighters being tried for war crimes.

What's not possible?  Stop defending a false teacher and a false prophet.

That's why I said I don't think his call to end the death penalty will work.
