"If the legal authorities proved the charges and carried out the sentence according to the requirements of the Law then it would be considered an execution, not a murder. Get a dictionary"

Only a cruel and stupid person would consider it the execution of a criminal. I call a murder a murder. It is a heinous, despicable, and sub-human act carried out by savages. The human race (at least in western secular culture) has moved beyond such savagery.

"Just because Jesus did not act as a judge". Of course he acted as a judge. He set her free and enjoined her to "sin no more." You don't think that was a judgment????

He could have said: go turn yourself in to the authorities for execution. He could have turned to the crowd and said: "Justice requires that this woman be buried in the ground and stoned until her brains are strewn across the sand." Will someone find a "legal authority"?? Has anyone seen greg or e??

"As far as condemning the rich man for watching a man starve to death while he ate and drank I think God is completely justified to judge the man accordingly."

Just for the record...the passage says no such thing. It does not say where or when Lazarus died or what he died from. It says that he was a diseased beggar. It says practically nothing about the rich man except that he wore nice clothing and died about the same time as Lazarus. It is possible that he contracted the same disease the shiftiness beggar had by coming too close to the wretched mendicant. Perhaps one of his servants brought the disease back from the gate. This would explain the odd occurrence of his death coming on the heels of the passing of the diseased beggar.
