God’s law is a plan and prescription for dominion in all of life.

Pretending to be God, they have taken upon themselves the punishing of evil doers, defining right and wrong, judge, jury, and executioner and, after all, being God is very, very serious business. Especially in a world of heretics and cruel memers. HOW DARE YOU?!?! But unlike God, the left have no fixed word of truth…
YHVH, through Torah, is the source of all definition, meaning, purpose, truth, life, law, and authority. Satan, through humanism (man as the determiner of right and wrong), is the source of obfuscation, meaninglessness, purposelessness, false witness, death, lawlessness, and tyranny. In other words, sin creates alienation from life. Alienists are people who hate YHVH and…

Within God’s Law, relationships are easy. Initiating them is easy and keeping them healthy is easy. Why? When everyone knows and obeys God’s Law there is harmony and peace.

Exhortation from David Chilton to the Church: “We must stop acting as if we are forever destined to be a sub-culture. We are destined for dominion; we should straighten up and start acting like it.

“Every attempt to pass, or every passing of fiat laws, of false measurements, in any area of life or thought, is an attempt to play God, it is an attempt to bypass work as the means of productivity and its eventual result is slavery and disaster.

A denial of hierarchy and Biblical law, as Tom Shipley has shown, leads to an egalitarianism where men and woman are supposed to be equal. Only they are not.

“No society in a fallen world can exist without fear as an aspect of government. Without the fear of God, the fear of the state prevails.

Christianity may be rightly understood as an Exchange Co-operative. Christ offers to bear our sins in exchange for our bearing His righteousness. We are then to turn around and offer to bear other’s burdens in exchange for ours in some measure. We are made such that our burdens are custom designed for just us and…
False weights, monetary and commercial, are, first, called injustice, and an abomination in the sight of God and hateful to Him. Second, a nation with just measures has the promise of a long life, whereas the implication is that God’s judgment is on those who falsify weights and measures in any and every area. Third,…

His mind was the result of many centuries of careful cultivation in a carefully constructed Christian culture through carefully contracted marriages and the careful raising of godly children.

from God’s curse on disobedience? Is there any substitute for obedience to Biblical Law? How about good will? Any one can agree to that. Maybe positive thinking? Norman Vincent Peale thought so.

God’s law defines good and evil and gives us the rules for relationships. The definition of love is to put God’s law into action, to enforce His laws within the jurisdictions we are responsible for. Wisdom is understanding how, when, and which laws to apply to a particular situation. But isn’t the law a tutor…
Gods law, as the character of Christ, is the mediator of all relationships to bring life, healing, and a harmony of interests to them all. Where God’s law is not followed, for whatever reason, then rifts grow and wounds fester and relationships are broken. In cases of offense there is first the offender and the…
People can be very upfront about their presuppositions, or what they tell themselves their presuppositions are.

WE WORSHIP WHAT WE FEAR “That which we most fear, we worship as our God. For fear is an act of worship.

Does chasing blessings get you blessings? Does running from curses save you from curses? The world thinks so. Sadly, so do many Christians. But Scripture teaches otherwise.

God the Lord is bringing judgment upon the nations
“We are moving now as never before in history into a time of world wide judgment, God the Lord is bringing judgment upon the nations, and we shall see that judgment for a generation or more perhaps in one sphere after another, in the life of the church, for judgment begins at the house of God. As those whose faith is weak as water depart from among us, we will see it in the state which is teetering on the brink of moral and financial bankruptcy, we will see it in every economic area, we will see it and are beginning to see it all over the world now in the weather, we are seeing it in heightened activities, earthquakes, volcanoes and more.
God is going to bring this generation to its knees. It is a time of unequaled opportunity for us. Men’s hearts will fail them for fear, and if we proclaim the undiluted word of God, the lord God of hosts will use us to reap the greatest harvest in all of church history. I believe that and I am living and working in terms of that. May God prosper you as you serve Him to that end.”

The battle of the definition of Christ is underway again. Is Christ the incarnation of the Mosaic Law or is He a statist humanist (Whom we define as we go along)? There are those who, in a vain attempt to justify studied ignorance of God’s Law, pit the summary of God’s Law against the nitty…

How to apply God’s LawWord to the economic crisis we face.Christians are tempted to fall into depression and despair along with the world as we face hard economic times. But we live under a different set of rules than do those who reject the written or the walking Torah of YHWH. We live by these three rules of economics:
1. Deut. 28:1-14 If we obey YHWH’s directives, regulations, ordinances, rules, laws, statutes, and judgments, being thoroughly bridled to His way in every thought, word, and deed, then we will be blessed and prospered in every way imaginable. But we know we fall short, even as saved people, so what can we do? Look to Galatians 6:2. If we will bear one another’s burdens, within the bounds of His LawWord, then we will have fulfilled the Law of Christ and thus become eligible for those promises. This is the law of substitution. See Charles Williams (of the Inklings) for more on this long unappreciated truth.
2. Malachi 3:10 We must tithe according to His LawWord. This includes the disposition of our tithe:
a) to the Levites (that is those who teach and labor in correct understanding of YHWH’s LawWord),
b) to the poor, widows, orphans, sick, and strangers in our land and
c) for the celebration of YHWH’s feast days which would require us to reform our calendar (you will know you are on the right track when you have a new moon sabbath).
When we do this we are assured, as a matter of actually testing YHWH Himself (the only time we are allowed to so test him) that he will bless us, regardless of the current economic climate, to the point of heaped up, pressed down, and overflowing riches.
3. Matthew 6:33 If we will seek His Kingdom and the rule of His Law as our first priority, He will make it His concern to add to us all the good things that ungodly people normally seek as a priority.
4. We seek to apply the rule to cancel all debts every Sabbath year. It is reflected in our day in bankruptcy laws.
5. Money is, within the context of Biblical Law, a way to keep score of how well you bear one another’s burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ.
Greater clarification on all these does entail a study of Biblical Law. The best teacher available to us for this purpose is R.J. Rushdoony. His books and audio lessons are widely available and easily accessible. See: www.pocketcollege.com

We often think of education in terms of the 3 R’s – Reading, wRiting, and aRithmetic. But, of course, there are 4 R’s. The most important is Religion – passing the Christian faith on to our children. Here is how Dr. RJ Rushdoony put it:
The goal of our humanistic statist education is the goal of the fall, of Satan. It is the goal of Genesis 3:5. Whereas the goal of Christian education is summed up by Moses and our Lord, Moses says in Deuteronomy 10:12-13, “And now Israel, what doth the Lord require of thee but to fear the Lord, to walk in all his ways and to love Him and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul.” And our Lord tells us in Matthew 22:37-40: “Thou shalt love thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment and the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” These words give us the purpose of life as God requires it, they do not give us a world wherein we can be neutral either in regard to man or our neighbor. The purpose of education can be no different because education is preparation for life. We include or we exclude in terms of that goal, certain things, because we are governed by our faiths. As humanists we exclude God as irrelevant, as Christians we see Him as the starting point of all wisdom and learning, and to exclude God, to exclude the Bible from education, is not neutrality, it is warfare.
Every curriculum is an affirmation of faith; it tells us what we believe is essential for life, what we believe a child needs in order to face this world and become a conqueror therein. Humanistic education does not see Christ as essential, but as a road block. It claims to be neutral but there is nothing neutral about it, only warfare against our faith. Any education apart from Jesus Christ is for us, mis-education and it produces not education nor an educated man but a new race of barbarians who are today busily destroying their civilization. It is our duty through our schools to create a new one, a God-centered one. We are told in Proverbs 8:35-36 “For who so findeth me, findeth life, and shall obtain favor of the Lord. But he who sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul. All they that hate me, love death.” Humanistic education is the institutionalized love of death. Christian education, because it serves Him who said I am the way, the truth, and the life, is the love of life.

I hope to get that project going soon with your help.

The Bible is a book of marching orders. And we don’t take well to orders. We want gifts from God, not orders. And we keep praying to God, not for orders, but for gifts. We have the whole thing reversed. We do not say, Here am I oh Lord, send me, what are your orders for me this day? No, we thumb through the Bible to find a happy word for the day.
To shift our responsibility for the conquest for all things for Christ our King from ourselves to institutions is to warp our mandate. It is doing pastors an injustice if we expect them to do our work. They are to teach us, they are to instruct us in the word of God but we are to do the marching. They are the sergeants training the troops.
So the church must serve us educate us, and guide us. But God judges us primarily and we cannot hide in the church on Judgment Day. It won’t work. We are the Royal Priesthood, the empowered people of Chirst. Our education therefore must be Biblical. The Bible is God’s Command-Word. We must reestablish the relationship between reading and the Bible, between faith and action, and between faith and victory. Because as John tells us, “This is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith.” This is our calling.

Numbers 15
37-41 And YHVH spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue: And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of YHVH, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring: That ye may remember, and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God. I am YHVH your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: I am YHVH your God.

Deuteronomy 6:1-9
1 These are the commands, decrees and laws YHVH your God directed me to teach you to observe in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess, 2 so that you, your children and their children after them may fear YHVH your God as long as you live by keeping all his decrees and commands that I give you, and so that you may enjoy long life. 3 Hear, O Israel, and be careful to obey so that it may go well with you and that you may increase greatly in a land flowing with milk and honey, just as YHVH, the God of your fathers, promised you.
4 Hear, O Israel: YHVH our God, YHVH is one. 5 Love YHVH your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. 8 Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 9 Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
Okay, here is how you can obey the command to write them on the doorframes of your house: just print out the 10 Commandments Sheet for Door Posts and cut out the four copies and staple them to the various door frames. Cover with packing tape to have them last longer.
You can also upload the graphic at the right to your Costco photo account and get 4 x 6 copies printed out for just 13 cents each. They look just great and proclaim that “as for me and my house, we will serve YHVH!”

Rushdoony says in so many words that the long term answer is to produce a complete Christian culture – a reformation of culture that provides a true alternative to the institutionalized love of death culture of the public schools and humanism, a culture where everything is oriented around Christ and His LawWord. This cultural reformation…
Why the controversy over the 10 Commandments? God's Ten Commandments Do they still apply? What do they mean? Do they trump man's laws? Was Jesus Christ the walking, talking, embodiment of God's Law?
