Natural Law and Civil Government

It is a primary feature of all fallen systems of thought to separate man's reasoning process from the Word of God.  Fallen man seeks truth, right, and law apart from God's word, on the assumption that these are accessible to him without reference to God.  This program has dominated the church's approach to civil law for almost  a millenium and is still evident in conservative attempts at curbing the nations slide into chaos.  A biblical approach to knowledge seeks it from God, and makes God's word the centerpiece of truth, right, and law.  This is the only approach worthy of the calling  we have in Christ, and is alone an effective solution.
