The Church as Nation
Until then, you might look here:
Peter has a wise footnote about how long it took 'pro-state' people to enable the state to conquer other jurisdictions. "the End of Protestantism'. He proposes marriage courts as a start.
Hoppe has some valuable comments in Economy, Society, and History' Various religions, competing legal systems. Statism as result of Protestantism is remarkable, so I remark.
Berman has 3 points at least. 21 (iirc) types of laws, 1000 year budgets for cathedrals, and Roman Catholic church as first state (from ERH).
Barzun 'From Dawn to Decadence' limns the triumph of monarchialism as law-pronouncer.All these are a result on Christ as King, not.
Teller's 'Public Stoning' does not see the church as lawgiver over non-members, but that if/as/when she is a nation of good law, people will grab us (on of The Twelve) and want be join our nation.Ofcourse, what most miss is that GodTrinity ALREADY is omnipotent, and'Surely the Lord has made all things for Himself, even the wicked for the day of calamity (evil). So, whether we say it or not, He judges, and we, by prayer etc. are with Him.
Love in King Jesus,
Chuck
