@trentreznorisgod69 No, in ancient Israel, foreigners and aliens could worship their false gods in private. The Israelites could not because they were part of the Covenant. Theonomy allows for a covenantal distinction between Israel and modern Christian states.In modern times, we could excommunicate a person from a Church for not worshiping Jesus, but the state would not have the power to execute.

the institutes of biblical law is an amazin book and i had the opportunity to read it and write on it this year

At least this guy's honest. He is taking the WHOLE of the Bible, not just the parts that are easier, and this is why Christianity is as bad as Islam. If you take the whole Bible, you inevitably come to the same conclusions as Rushdoony. It's only a matter of time before there are Christian terrorists and suicide bombers on the same scale as Islam. Religion is DANGEROUS, not merely silly and deluded.

@jcr4runner That statement contains more knowledge than you realise.

The beard is the mark of the Jew...and Jews will look to sacrifice goyim...this is their duty? New World Order baptized in rivers of blood, non-jewish blood.

Yes and some of us break the first 4 of the 10 commandments and would deserve the death penalty. For now, we have that right to not worship their god legally. I hope to keep it.

And so do you. All Christians -- in fact all people -- believe in God's Law whenever it suits them. A true "theonomist' is one who accepts and tries to obey God's law even when he doesn't like it or fully understand the reason for it.

But he favored the death penalty for those who violated Mosaic laws.

This comment shows you have not even the slightest idea of what Rushdoony taught. He did not advocate that Christians should try to seize political power or that dominion is advanced by killing people. He taught regeneration of individuals through faith in Jesus Christ and then applying the Law of God as a standard of reformation on the grassroots level.What is frightening is when socialists, communists and atheists seize power, not when Christians work for democratic, peaceful reformation.

This man is beyond frightening. Thank God he never acquired even a fraction of the theocratic power he sought. If he had, then many of us would have been murdered. |
