What Happens When “Little Children Walk in the Light?”

We saw last week that the two irreplaceable factors for me to live as a Spirit-led believer who is “living by faith” are 1.) living as a little child who 2.) walks in the light with my brothers and sisters about my sin. It takes God’s divine revelation in my heart in order to see this truth experientially. This is, as we saw last week, ginosko (experiential) knowledge, and not simply eido (intellectual) knowledge.  However, I firmly believe that once He has this for…

“Obey God” vs. “Daddy’s Got It”

In our previous posting we emphasized an amazing truth of which much of the church is unaware—we are all ADDICTED to the forbidden fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil! When Adam ate of that fruit in the Garden, the whole human race was dramatically and permanently altered. We, as Adam’s future descendants who were “in him,” moved permanently away from simply trusting that everything God told us was true, right, and unquestioningly obeyed. Instead, in that act of independence…

Shaking Our Unrecognized Addiction

We concluded our last blog posting by recognizing our addiction to the forbidden fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil In the Garden of Eden. That addiction grips us all, because we all very naturally are driven to be “good” and not “bad,” “right” and not “wrong,” in the particular life system we have chosen to adopt. That may be Christianity, Islam (Sharia Law), Marxism, the law of my gang, or just “what is right for me.”  However, just as…

Sharpening the Other Edge of the Sword

Our investigation of the Ship of the Kingdom has been a study of the revealed Law of God for us on the earth—as expressed through God’s three, ordained institutions of family, church and civil government. However, John tells us “For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ” (John 1:17).   In other words, this verse tells us that just keeping the Law of God, even perfectly, is NOT the Truth of God. God’s Law and God’s Truth are…

Sailing the Ship of the Kingdom into Port

In about 600 B.C., God spoke through the prophet Jeremiah with what I am sure appeared to his people, the Jews, words that were incomprehensible and mind-blowing: “But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.   No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man…

Making Sense of the Rantings of a Crazy Person

“Andrews, your blog postings are sounding more and more like the rantings of a crazy person. Why should I waste my time even opening this drivel? Certainly anyone who floats the idea that our U.S. Constitution violates the biblical pattern for civil government and needs to be changed after 250 years, needs to be written off and ignored.” I understand this feeling completely, because I once had it myself—over the whole idea of a theocracy vs. pluralism! Obviously, the U.S. is a religiously pluralistic…

Do We Need a New Constitution?

It is a shock to many to discover that our Constitution so blatantly and purposefully violates the two most basic tenets of God’s biblical model for a biblical civil government, the Hebrew Republic. Those violated tenets are the first two we discussed last week: 1.)  the unity of God, and 2.) the spiritual unity of the citizens. As we investigate these ideas, keep in mind that I believe our current Constitution is the most insightful, complete and powerful governing document ever written by man—but…

A Biblical Civil Government – in Living Color!

We have been discussing the source of our United States Constitution, and we saw last week that, according to 19th century biblical scholar E.C. Wines, that source was the Hebrew Republic. It functioned from about 1450 B.C. until about 1050 B.C. In his book, The Roots of the American Republic, written in 1863. Wines presents 17 foundation stones that were intrinsic in God’s design for the civil government of His people  We will look with some detail at the first four of these and…

“What Does a Biblical Civil Government Look Like?”

Last week we looked at three lies Satan has used, very effectively over the last 150 years, to sidetrack, neutralize, and even destroy one of the three weapons God has given us by which we are to rule over the earth—the Civil Government. Those three Satanic lies are Marxism, Evolution and Escapist Theology.  We can add Islam to that list as well. Islam is an even more ancient lie, and is violently at odds with these other three, but the old adage, “the enemies…

“Politics is a Dirty Business – Christians Don’t Get Involved!”

Today, we will begin our investigation of our least recognized, utilized, and certainly the most vilified of our three weapons—the Civil Government. The title of today’s posting is what I heard regularly in my church-growing-up experience to explain our complete disengagement from politics We have already discussed two of the three major weapons God has given us to fulfill our commission to rule over the earth—the Family and the Church. We concluded last week’s posting on how the church equips us to rule by…

“Robert’s Blog” is a forum to investigate and then discuss the significance of both God’s law and God’s grace (the gospel). Who are these two fraternal twins, how do they relate to one another and how do they then work together to accomplish God’s ultimate intention for my life and in His world? All comers jump in; the water’s fine.
