It's not in the Bible. He was Archbishop of Constantinople (300ad). Some 700 sermons and 246 letters by John Chrysostom survive, plus biblical commentaries, moral discourses, and theological treatises.
A long winded false prophet is still a false prophet. Only a murderer would say to viciously beat your enemies instead of praying for them and trying to bring them to the truth.
The way I read this is that the threat of violence for transgressions can be an effective deterrent. i.e.: Jesus and the moneylenders.
He's not calling for their murder btw. He's saying make it absolutely unacceptable in your society to blaspheme, and the problem will HAVE TO go away. Public shaming works. Shunning works. He isn't wrong.
I'm not saying there aren't better ways, but his advice is quick and efficient, and is a great example how Christianity isn't a 'lay down and die' when oppressed religion, as much of it has been cucked into today.
No, don't tell him that! I bet this guy thinks disciplining your children is unchristian too because you're being mean to them which means you do not love them. We must all be like passive feminized hippy-Jesus his talmud overlords cooked up as a subversion: "Listen, goy, disregard what the Church stance is and what the Church fathers said throughout the years. When you're interpreting Scripture, make sure to listen to your feels and base it off the anti-christian masonic culture we promote. Did I mention the Church fathers were antisemites?"
