Jesus Christ: The Buttality Of Jesus Death

Perhaps the strongest belief that euthanasia is wrong comes from those who follow the words of the Bible and believe that every aspect of life belongs to God. The Old Testament records an incident involving King Saul of Israel, who became seriously wounded on the battlefield. Fearing the advancing enemy, Saul took his own sword and tried to fall against it. He cried to a soldier, “Come and put me out of my misery for I am in terrible pain but life lingers on.” The soldier acted in accordance with the wishes of the king and killed him. The soldier then brought some of Saul’s armor to David and said, “I killed him, for I knew he couldn’t live.” David ordered the soldier put to death (Eareckson, 111).

Why couldn't I see that my sins could not be covered up and swept away? My first sin only multiplied and resulted in the murder of a warrior that faithfully served my kingdom while I committed adultery with his wife. The Prophet Nathan finally showed me my sins, and even to this day I repent them. It was that day, while I wept in sorrow that The Lord spoke though Nathan and told me that my sins would bring evil to my house, and result in the death of my first son by Bathsheba. The Lord is merciful and great in forgiving me of my sins, but I regret that my sins have caused so much pain and suffering for the family that I love.

'; Since the first time the Mariner confessed his crime to the Hermit at an inconsistent hour God reminds the Mariner of the sin he has committed by piercing his heart with agonizing pain. He tells the Wedding Guest that, until he tells his story, 'The heart within me burns. '; This is God's way of expressing his anger to the Mariner for the curse he put on his crew when he killed the Albatross. God makes sure that the Mariner has and will fell agony, that the agony will always return, and that the agony will return at an unsure hour each day which causes the Mariner to relive his tale and to live in agony for the rest of his life. The Mariner is granted relief from his agony by telling his tale which releases his agony for a short while.

It was only when Jesus a truly innocent being could be sacrificed could the link between god and people be restored .Death is evil powerfulness weapon against mankind by Jesus dying and rising from the dead conquered death and in a mater of words liberated from death and now leads the way for us to over come evil.

However, time and time again we see man rejecting God, and in this passage that is again what we see happening. Jesus carried our burdens and yet we scorned and mocked him. This passage truly displays the hatred that dwells within man. Humanity had no reason to hate Jesus, yet the hatred of the Pharisees was able to fill all the people with such despise that they would cheer for his death. This passage also displays God’s unconditional grace.

The Use of Capital Punishment to Eliminate Repeat Offenders Capital punishment is the only way to eliminate repeat offenders, to deter potential murderers and is the ultimate retribution. “When I think of all the sweet, innocent people who suffer extreme pain and who die every day in this country, then the outpouring of sympathy for cold-blooded killers enrages me. Where is your sympathy for the good, the kind and the innocent? This fixation on murderers is a sickness, a putrefaction of the soul. It's the equivalent of someone spending all day mooning and cooing over a handful of human feces, sick and abnormal.” – Charley Reese (columnist).

Suffering as Christ Did Some people may agree with this statement because Jesus suffered immense torture, death and cruelty. We know this because in Mark’s Gospel there is the story of Jesus’ crucifixion where he got mocked, beat and stripped him. Jesus suffered and was made to carry his cross people shouted abuse at him and laughed at him questioning his power. Just before Jesus died he shouted “My God, My God, why did you abandon me?” People today it could be said are not willing to suffer such cruelty and torture. They are afraid to stand up fro what is right.

The Greater Sin in The Scarlet Letter In essence, there were three main sins committed in The Scarlet Letter, the sins of Hester, the Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale, and Roger Chillingworth. Roger Chillingworth committed the greatest sin because he let himself be ruled by hatred and the consuming desire for vengeance. The overpowering vengeance and hatred felt by Chillingworth caused his life to be centered on demeaning Dimmesdale and tormenting him until the end of time. Both Hester Prynne and Arthur Dimmesdale committed sins for which they were deeply remorseful, Roger Chillingworth, however, committed the greater sin because he felt no guilt. Unknowingly, Hester Prynne sailed from Europe to the Americas betrayed and tricked.
