On a Sunday night in Albuquerque, New Mexico, twenty-eight year old Steve Garcia got home from his ministerial class at a local church and shot two men to death. One had been renting a room from him. The words from the Bible's Book of Leviticus saying if a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable were fresh in his ears. And the section had indicated death for anyone caught in the act. "They must be put to death," Leviticus said, and Steve was obsessed. The police arrested him and he was charged with two counts of first-degree murder. His only defense was that God told him to do it. Before the trial, a devout Christian mailed a booklet called "Juror's Voting Guide for Serious Christians" to Christians in the area. Its premise: Christians who were members of a jury should vote based upon the law of God, not the law of man. By coincidence, all Steve's jurors are Christians. Will they base their decision on the law of God...or the law of man? Samuel A. Francis earned his Juris Doctor degree from the University of New Mexico Law School in 1966. Sunstone Press published his first two books "Good Behaviour" and "Criminal or Not."
