Forgiving Murderers

stop wasting my time i have provided three verses, not just one.

If 1 Peter 4:1 supports the death penalty for more than just murder, then the verse contradicts your stance, robbie.

If you think that it supports capital punishment for anything other than murder then
that is your assertion, not mine, I find no evidence for it.

THE BIBLE, IN THE CHRISTIAN EPOCH, TO MY KNOWLEDGE, DOES NOT SPECIFY CAPITAL PUNISHMENT FOR ANY CRIME OTHER THAN MURDER AND IT DOES SO INDIRECTLY.

This means the Bible does not forbid capital punishment for crimes other than murder. Just as - you say - it does not forbid capital punishment for murder. This undermines your stance, robbie.

You cited it, robbie. It does not only mention "a murderer", it also mentions "a thief" and "an evildoer" and "a busybody in other people’s matters"

You cited Romans 13:1-4 on page 4 too. It does not support your stance either.

The mention of other "wrongdoers" in the same verse means the verse does not support your stance.

Romans 13:1-4 does not mention murder. It only mentions a "wrongdoer". That's two out of your three verses that do not support your claims.

You said "I QUOTED THREE VERSES WHICH MENTIONED THAT THE BIBLE WRITERS CONSIDERED MURDER AS BEING PUNISHABLE BY DEATH" but it turns out they don't substantiate your stance. They're on page 4. Go back and have a look.
