The Death Penalty: A Biblical World View - Episode 76

Is the death penalty biblical? In this episode of Life After Sunday, we dive deep into one of the most debated moral questions of our time — capital punishment — and look at it through a biblical worldview. We trace the origins of the death penalty all the way back to the Code of Hammurabi, explore how it was applied under Mosaic Law, and discuss what Jesus meant when He said, “I did not come to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it” (Matthew 5:17). From “eye for an eye” justice to the grace shown on the cross, this conversation challenges modern ideas about justice, mercy, and redemption. Is the death penalty consistent with God’s character? How should Christians view crime and punishment today? Whether you’re a believer wrestling with these questions or a man trying to better understand how faith shapes justice, this episode will give you the context, Scripture, and perspective you need. 👉 Subscribe for more conversations on faith, masculinity, culture, and truth. ✝️ Life After Sunday — because faith doesn’t end when the service does.
