I thought this was an honest look at a major problem in our Country and Church. I also noted that there were problems with others in the past concerning civil antinomianism. The sources might be questionable but the facts are, we are in trouble. I believe antinomianism is a bigger problem than most are willing to accept.
This isn't necessarily about being a Theocracy or the topic of Theonomy nor is it about politics even though those are issues. I want to keep this topic on why the Church is losing its balance and why the Civil is doing the same thing. Some would accuse me of being a Transformationalist. As I understand the term, I am not a transformationalist being someone who is looking for the eschatological end of His Kingdom here on earth. But I do believe that the Gospel does transform Society as it should. That is if the Law of God is not dichotomized nor divorced from the Gospel. Many today seem to want to do that. Why is God's Law being opposed and what can we do about it?
God's law is being opposed by the Church and the Civil realm. I understand why it might be done by the civil realm but..... by the Church? The Church is to loudly proclaim the Gospel and Kingdom of God. We are to proclaim what Acts 17 and Phil 2 say about every man everywhere.
Act 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
Act 17:31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
Php 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Php 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
Php 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Php 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
