Killers

       In HP and the Prisoner of Azkaban there is a part where Sirius and Remus are about to kill Peter but Harry stops them because "I don't reckon my dad would've wanted his best friends to become killers - just for you." All evil has consequences, even when the motives seem good and to kill someone who cannot defend himself is wrong. Jesus is extremely merciful even when we don't deserve his mercy and when we follow in his example good things will happen. Perhaps not as drastic as Peter later saving Harry's life but if that person turns around, the joy we will feel because of his healing is much purer and fuller than any elation over death.
