A lot of people's comments are off the mark: At the heart of Christianity is confession of sin and a willingness to commit one's sin to God. Helen does not support the release of death row prisoners. She cares more about whether this soul recognizes its own sin. This is what God values ​​most. She is very serious about this issue. Jesus did not give up prostitutes, tax collectors, or even the death row prisoners who went to the cross with him. What Jesus wanted was their repentance. Everyone is guilty. If you don’t know your own sins, no matter what status you are, you are just a death row, and you will eventually face the final death.
