LDS Alert: Some states are considering suspending the holy ordinance of the death penalty because it is too expensive: Death Penalty Too Expensive
God knows capital punishment better than life: “Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed.” I know there are some benevolent and philanthropic people in these times who think that capital punishment ought to be abolished. Yet I think the Lord knows better than they.” Joseph Fielding Smith, Answers to Gospel Questions, vol. 1, p. 189
The Lord’s Law of Necro-Neighborism: “This is loving our neighbour as ourselves; if he needs help, help him; and if he wants salvation and it is necessary to spill his blood on the earth in order that he may be saved, spill it.” Brigham Young, JD 4:220
There will be Blood (in Utah)! “hence in Utah, when the Latter-day Saints, in their capacity as citizens of the state have made the laws, condemned criminals, subject to capital punishment, are permitted to choose their mode of execution either by being hung or shot, the latter mode, of course, resulting in the shedding of their blood, thus meeting the requirements of the law of God…” B. H. Roberts, A Comprehensive History of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, vol. 4, p. 138
Prison Ward Bishop’s Note: After each inmate’s execution, please submit their name to be baptized while they’re dead. Another example of the Lord’s doctrines (Death Penalty and Baptimsm for the Dead) fitting together in bosom burning ways.
Recommendations: Ask your Bishop to send all tithing money to the U.S. federal death penalty fund. You can also become a volunteer executioner at a nearby prison and thus help the government get sinners to heaven less expensively (get online training at below link). The Lord is depending on you to keep this morbid practice alive and affordable for evil people that have no other way of reaching celestial glory.
