156 Crime & Punishment

On this episode, we began to discuss crime from a Biblical view. A listener asked: is it ok for the government to pay criminals “peace money” in order to keep the peace and keep crime down? And we discussed: Are all sins crimes, and are all crimes sin? What is the cause of crime? What modern ideas cause confusion about crime and punishment? What are the ramifications of shifting blame from the criminal to society? Listen as Pastor/Dr. Murphy discusses this topic and answers other listener questions.
