Is it possible for a person to be a great, just leader that can maintain a safe and healthy country and still act as a good christian?
Punishing wrong doers and especially the act of war supposedly go against christian values and the act of forgiveness. However, in order to maintain a strong empire in many situations it is necessary to enforce such things as capitol punishment, and bring about the death of many people.
So is it possible to be a "Christian King"
or is that just an oxymoron?
