The topics at hand seems to be the Christ, the cross, and the mercy of God.
The topic was the death penalty. And, if you came to my ~~evangelical~~ church you would find that our deacons and our pastor, when talking about the death penalty, remind us to remember that Jesus was sentenced to death and he suffered in death and he was tortured-- So, what we have seen in this countries recent history is nothing new. People can be so cruel to each other and some of it is injustice even we can recognize. Yet even this sin which must be the worst imaginable may be forgiven.
what is important in evangelical churches (which apparently, if one is to go by your comments, is something other than the Christ, the cross, and the mercy of God)
Where are you getting this from?
