certainly Jesus never says anything about executing people. I go to church, I'm a Christian. I think it’s interesting that so many political Christians support the death penalty when Jesus Christ never says a single, slight word about putting people to death, never even slightly. I don't know where they're coming from as Christians. I don't understand.Some Christians believe that Romans 13 teaches that capital punishment is one of the options that civil magistrates may use to punish evildoers. Specifically v. 4 which says,
4For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing.http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?se ... version=31;
