Deterrence.

The whole theory of deterrence is wrong.

Punishment is a deterrent to crime.
Divine punishment is a deterrent to sin.

God is not a punisher of men and women.

We judge God by human standards.
God judges no one.

But this does not mean that God condones violence or crime.
He understands the motives and the reasons for the crime.

He forgives us.

We assume that there is judgment and punishment because this is the way of the world.

But it is not God's way.

All are forgiven.

None will perish.
