To attempt to study Scripture without studying its law is to deny it. To attempt to understand Western civilization apart from the impact of Biblical law within it and upon it is to seek a fictitious history and to reject twenty centuries and their progress. The Institutes of Biblical Law has as its purpose a reversal of the present trend. it is called "Institutes" in the older meaning of the that word, i.e., fundamental principles, here of law, because it is intended as a beginning, as an instituting consideration of that law which must govern society, and which shall govern society under God. To understand Biblical law, it is necessary to understand also certain basic characteristics of th...
Well into the twenty-first century, the United States remains one of the most highly religious industrial democracies on earth. Recent Gallup surveys suggest that 76 percent of Americans believe that the Bible is divinely inspired or the direct word of God. In Medieval America, Andrew M Koch and Paul H. Gates, Jr. offer a thoughtful examination of how this strong religious feeling, coupled with Christian doctrine, affects American political debates and collective practices and surveying the direct and indirect influence of religion and faith on American political culture. Koch and Gates open a more critical dialogue on the political influence of religion in American politics, showing that pe...
In terms of the daily lives of the world’s population, no institution is more central than the family. The society which sees the demise of the family does not survive.
Creation in Six Days offers an exegetical, literary, and theological defense of the traditional interpretation of the Genesis account of six-day creation. Jordan's account is primarily designed to answer any approach to the text of Genesis, such as the increasingly popular Framework Hypothesis, that pits the text's literary features against its historical and narrative sense. Beyond his exegetical critique of several prominent positions, Jordan offers a constructive reading of the early parts of Genesis and also seeks to uncover the assumptions which attract people to the Framework Interpretation and similar views. The explanation, he says, lies in the acceptance of many of the questionable assumptions of modern science on the part of most Christians today, coupled with the pervasiveness of a gnostic or nonhistorical attitude toward the Christian faith.
Ce livre de 530 pages est consacré au huitième commandement: Tu ne voleras pas. Cette parole du Décalogue est lue à travers l'enseignement de toute la Bible et appliquée à nos réalités. Ces vingt chapitres sont donc une lumière pour un temps de confusion - le nôtre - dans tous les domaines, dont celui de l'économie. On y découvre que la racine de nos maux est l'oubli de Dieu et de ses lois. L'oubli de la lumière divine - la Loi et l'Évangile - conduit les hommes et les nations au chaos révélateur de l'absence de Dieu et à son jugement. Comme le disait le Cardinal Pie: Si le Seigneur ne gouverne pas par Sa présence, Il gouvernera par Son absence . Cette absence se voit partout dans la vie sociale, mais surtout en ce qui concerne l'argent et l'économie, là où règne une confusion sans nom. À l'absence de Dieu, à ce néant conceptuel et pratique, peut répondre le renouveau d'un retour au Seigneur Dieu, à Jésus-Christ et à l'obéissance à ses lois: retour à un ordre qui rend la vie.
Faith and Action is the complete collection of the essays of R. J. Rushdoony written for the Chalcedon Report between 1965 and 2001 along with several transcripts of his recorded talks. The large volume The Roots of Reconstruction only contained his Chalcedon Report essays up until 1985, so most of the essays included in Faith & Action were unavailable to readers for many years until now. In order to make the author’s knowledge more accessible, this three-volume collection features some of the most extensive indexing we’ve ever done including a General Index, a History Index, a Scripture Index, a Works Cited Index, and a Chalcedon Report Directory. A total of 183 pages of indexing! This ...
