[Vision2020] Correction

Andreas,

Great question.

When the Church is ruling lawfully, then the magistrate will be judging 
Biblically and the non-believing members of society will be acting 
Biblically. The three situations will be working together and the need 
to ‘put to death heretics’ will have passed.

If this sounds too good to be true it’s not. This is what the Bible 
describes as the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. Right now the Church has a 
long way to go. It can’t even agree on wither or not the 10 
commandments should be followed! I guess the 10 commandments will be 
displayed in the public square when they are followed in the Church.

Lemeno, Doug!

This is an interesting thread. Tell me, Doug: do you believe that
church authorities have a lawful right (if ruling lawfully) to put to
death people espousing heretical doctrines?
