You're a fool if you think men will not corrupt a theonomic government.

The Christian anarchist believes in Christian sovereignty, that Christians might be governed by Christ alone. We should have our own voluntary communities, by laws, committees, and elders. None beholden to any civil government.

Now, the governments of this world refuse to grant such sovereignty. So, we refuse as much participation in their system as possible, but obey certain ordinances that do not hinder us just to keep peace.

Christian anarchists envision sovereign Christian communities. Much like this one, but sovereign. Until that is possible, this is the closest the Christian anarchist vision can be realized.

In other words, a collection of independent theonomic city states.

I guess you like your eggs scrambled.

I've become bored with this discussion. I'm focusing my energies on finishing my book, and spending my time building my family into a theonomic power-house. Change isn't achieved by arguing on an internet backwater with prog-commie cbd salesmen who are already demographically irrelevant to begin with.

Theonomic? No. That's for ancient Israel. Christian anarchist bylaws would reflect manners demonstrating one's love for God, and one's neighbor as one's self. Those who do not live for God and violate community bylaws are not executed. They are disfellowshiped, shunned, excommunicated. Cut off from the community.

It isn't grounded in OT law. It's grounded in NT teaching.
