God, Law & Liberty

David explains why and how “the law of sin” beguiled him and beguiles other Christians into thinking they are pursuing righteousness in their political and legal advocacy

Are Christians Even Pursuing in Law the Righteousness that “Exalteth a Nation” (KJV)?

This short episode passes on what David wrote coming out of his study and prayer time this morning. It is for any who might find fear, worry, or doubt creeping into their thinking about something — anything, really. Maybe even the outcome of the upcoming elections? He see lots of that in the Tennessee part of the so-called Bible-belt right now. It is based, ironically, on the beauty of Christ underlying Romans 8:7 (KJV) “[T]he carnal mind is ENMITY AGAINST GOD: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

David's  reflection this morning on the law of sin’s enmity against God, even in Believers, and what Christians are tempted to believe/disbelieve about Christ

What Weapon Christians Actually Choose for Their Warfare?

Today David explains why law, rightly understood, becomes a beautiful form of art when rightly applied to politics, law, and public policy advocacy. He also shows how Christians have been taken captive by what he calls the "dark arts" of law. Which one will you be taking into the voting booth?

David explains that law is either a form of art full of light and beauty or one full of ugly darkness. One or the other is always carried into the voting booth.

The Beauty of a Christian View of Law

Today's episode has two parts. In the first, David uses Abraham Kuyper's description of the four worldview that can apply to politics and law and David summarizes the fifth, nihilism. In the second part, David explains the nature of the worldview capitulation being made by many Catholics and Evangelicals in law and public policy. It not only explains why he expects little "gospel fruitfulness" to come from that sphere, but it may help listeners evaluate candidates for the upcoming election cycle.

David explains the five fundamental worldviews (life-systems) and why he thinks nihilism rather than the glory of Christ informs much of Christian political and legal thought and advocacy.
