<HEAD ON DESK>.... failure to effectively communicate.... I gather at this point Ken, you would never spank your child either.... no matter what how disobedient, wicked or how badly your child wrongs another person.... you won't spank him.
That is just a bad comparison to do that and make such an assumption, because even the Lord our God chastises us for correction. There is no teaching of chastising a person to death without correction in the new covenant.
Lord Jesus took the punishment for our sins so that when we do sin again we have Him as our advocate so that we do not have to face the curse of the law by being put to death for that disobedience. The Lord showed this love to us in His mercy and forgiveness and we are commanded to show this to others.
So which of the 10 Commandments or other Mosaic laws have you broken ? The penalty for breaking the 10 is to be put to death in the old covenant.............
