For the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz death camp, Bob Enyart talks to one of his favorite interview subjects, Dominic Enyart, about the 18-year-old's visit on his own to New York City's Holocaust Museum. Dom's observations, those of a teenage American Christian, bring a thoroughly biblical perspective to this horror lifted right off the pages of modern history.
Today's resource: God and the Death Penalty:
In this video, see that:
In the New Testament God directs the government to strike the criminal with terror, wrath and vengeance without mercy. Watch in amazement as you see that Jesus commanded the death penalty! And the Apostle Paul said he did not object to capital punishment. Then see other Bible characters directly affirm the death penalty!
The writings of Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and Paul in the Gospels, Acts, Romans and Revelation defend execution as does the author of Hebrews. Crime thrives because the criminal's "sentence... is not executed speedily" says the Bible. Learn the history of execution and why God first utterly forbade, and then strictly commanded, execution. In this video, find out why the Bible begins and ends with capital punishment issues and why God put the death penalty at the heart of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
