Re: Hitler And God

What you don't understand is that my statement and yours are basically logically equivalent. [/ QUOTE ] No, they aren't. This is exactly what I meant when I said that you don't understand spiritual laws. For the forgiveness of sins, blood must be shed.

[/ QUOTE ] It's interesting to think of the death penalty in this context. bible=stoning US= hanging, lethal injection, gas chamber, electric chair I think Utah had/has firing squad as an option for the death penalty, probably I think from this biblical concept and the mormon influence.

Re: Hitler And God
Wow. Unbelievable. My statement had nothing to do with the death penalty and everything to do with the sacrifice of life required for the redemption of sins. You are misrepresenting what the Bible actually says.

[/ QUOTE ] I'm not really making a claim I'm just saying that the old testament says someting along the lines of that you can't be forgiven without the shedding of blood or something, so apparently when you got killed for breaking the law your blood was shed and you paid the penalty to even the books so to speak. On the other hand in america when the state puts you to death they do it without the shedding of blood so that in death you still owe, kinda like once you are guilty of a crime you are a criminal forever in america, even if you pay your penalty the slate is not wiped clean you are still a dirty criminal the rest of your life.
