An Examination of the Lexicology of Theocracy

Me: “I believe that the Bible should be our foundation for discerning how we ought to influence government.” Someone-else: “You are advocating a theocratic utopia!” Me: “Ummmm… No.” The above exchange is all too common, unfortunately, to be more than slightly humorous to me.

Noah Webster and His 1828 Dictionary

Noah Webster and His 1828 Dictionary “No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.” “All the miseries and evils which men suffer from vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery and war, proceed [...]

Importance of Understanding What a Biblical Nation Is

Here is an article that I wrote for Liberty’s Light. Why should we even care about the Bible’s view of government’s responsibilities? Why should we care how it limits it? Why should we care what it requires of it? Why should we care that no nation on earth today obeys it? Why should we care [...]
