additionally the fact remains that akmapuke like bin laden needs a good killin'
more over their really isnt a way to say "he needs a good killin' and still be speaking in perfect christian love. so I am sorry i am a frail human. I look forward to the day when I am as perfected as larry boy.
As far as any understanding of the orriginal question is concerned, it is impossible to make any claim of understanding God's view of the matter. His ways remain above our ways. and lets not forget, the death penalty was carried out by God upon 2 people who simply lied to Peter.
and lastly akmapuke still needs a good killin'

Now boys, lets discuss this thang without taking it to a personal level.
LB does have valid points and so do you Ferd.
I think both human nature and our spirit man would agree that our enemies need to be destroyed. But I think one would try to do it with love the other with a physical weapon.
Yes the bible does indeed say we should pray for our enemies, but does it tell us what to pray? Is pray'n that God changes your enemy to ashes in order? Or should we pray that the enemies soul can be saved and his status changed from enemy to brother?
