> Death Penalty
There is 1 question in this category.
The Old Testament says that those who disobey parents should be put to death. How can I explain this? We do not do this today. Why is this commandment no longer in effect? Is it because Christ saved the adulterous woman from stoning, and so put an end to the death penalty? But at the same time, the Church supports the death penalty for murderers. Why death penalty for one and not the other, if both are mentioned in Old Testament?
