A good word from Melanie Weldon-Soiset from God’s Politics on the abhorrent practice of the death penalty. I’ve dropped in a wonderful statement below, but have a read of the original.
The death penalty also denies the transformative power of the gospel. If we as Christians believe that the Holy Spirit can restore even the worst of sinners (2 Corinthians 5:17), then who are we to deny anyone the chance to become a new creation in Christ?
