This guy is just a crazy idiot. Neither Satan, god, or his neighbor's dog are to blame. They should have just shot berkowitz on sight without jail or a trial. It would have preserved everyone's dignity and taken away from the ego boasting of his bullshit christians who pretend to save him.
Likewise, we could never be as a shining light on a hill if our value system was built on the delayed or deferred justice that the phrase "judge not" has come to be understood as inferring. "Lest you be judged" implies a humanistic value system corresponding to imperfect moral agents. Not the suspension of all rational thought.
the idea that christian values are possibly displaced by humanistic and secular ideals that you frame the issue in terms of being merciful or merciless? My kingdom is not of this world doesn't mean that we should suspend our capacity to build a just society.
If you believe in society's right to punish (and, by implication, judge) an individual, you acknowledge that society has a responsibility in raising its children to the standards it has set for itself. Therefore, it is hypocritical to kill in the name of justice/mercy But, it is also hypocritical to ask for forgiveness from society or its members because an outcast has found jesus in prison. Why don't you hold up someone that is worthy of respect and/or veneration? Are you so caught up with
@x2stepprogramx There is nothing more wicked than a self-righteous Pharasee who thinks they're good enough for God.You might be "good" in the world's standards and in your own eyes, but before God you are filthy and abominable because of your sin, so was David Berkowitz.ALL HAVE SINEND and come short of the glory of God.ALL PEOPLE deseve the divine judgement of God.Only in Jesus Christ was the payment for sin satisified and only by turning from sin and trustin him can we be justified before God.
Ephesians Chapter 2:8,9 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast.
Only through faith in Jesus Christ can you come to God.

@x2stepprogramx Good deeds will not save you:
Ephesians Chapter 2:8,9 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast.
Only through faith in Jesus Christ can you come to God.
