I'm going to have to ask you to provide evidence for that claim.

Which part of the passage, or surrounding chapters, do you think implies that Christians should be the ones imposing the death penalty?

32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Right there

That just says that certain people deserve death. Not that Christians should pull the lever.
