As demonstrated in Part 1, doing as Jesus would do requires we consult Yahweh’s1 triune moral law (His commandments, statutes, and judgments2) as the principle means for determining the answer to this extremely important question: He that saith he abideth in him [Jesus] ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. (1 John […]

“What would Jesus do?” has become a mantra among contemporary Christians. It’s a great question, but only when answered by the Biblical standard.

Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God … and without law. (2 Chronicles 15:3) Anarchy is defined, in part, as “a state of society without … law.”1 Therefore, to understand anarchy, we must first understand what constitutes law and who determines what is and what is not law.

The answer is found in a comparison of two constitutions, one (the Fundamental Agreement of New Haven, Connecticut) that celebrated its 375th anniversary […]

[T]he law is ignored and justice is never upheld. For the wicked surround the righteous; therefore, justice comes out perverted.
