Jesus tells a parable about a ruler.
Luke 19
It could be that the ruler in the story represents Jesus himself as Lord. In which case, it would seem he would be calling for the death of those who do not follow him....ie evildoers.
26 He replied, ‘I tell you that everyone who has will be given more; but the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 27 And these enemies of mine who were unwilling for me to rule over them, bring them here and slay them in front of me.’”
It's not Jesus, but Paul writes that the wages of sin is death.
It's not really a direct ratio kind of parable.
He is telling them it will be later and benefits those with faith.
And yes, he's going to kill a lot of people who are against him.
Paul's writing in Romans have nothing to do with violence.
