If the country we live in has the penalty of death to those who break laws then all we can do is pray for the mercy of those who are condemned. As for me and my house we will not advocate the putting to death of any human being. Those who commit crimes are all handed over to the mercy and judgement of God.

Is it in the realm of possibility that God would use being convicted and sentence to death as a means to bring some lost soul face to face with the reality that they do indeed need Jesus?
Could being put to death after obeying the gospel be a means to a sure salvation because they never got the chance to go back to their old ways?
Are we really showing mercy by letting them go free, when they might meet with death by going back to the old life style before they had a repented?
