Re: BY THIS STANDARD-Greg L. Bahnsen

The Christian anarchy is the individual submitting to the rulership of Christ alone. We obey earthly government to keep peace while among them. BUT in areas we deem are under God's authority, we must obey God, and not men, being willing to face whatever repercussions that might bring. We call others to come under the same rulership of Christ, and live above the authorities of this world, even "theonomic" authorities of this world, like the one advocated by Esaias in this thread. The born again Christian has the Holy Spirit to guide them directly. We don't need Esaias, Rushdoony, or any other fallen human being ruling over us as God's representative. God Himself is in us.

If Rushdoony, and these other theonomists, had the Holy Spirit, they'd need not rely on human coercion through religious government, or political agenda.
