[CS-FSLUG] My Brother, My Enemy

[Fred A. Miller]

How is it that so many professing Christians can be so blind to the
divine principles of liberty? How is it that they can be so quick to
turn against their brethren who choose to stand and fight for those
divine principles of liberty? I believe the answer is because, 1) they
are truly ignorant of the divine principles of liberty, and/or, 2) they
are statists at heart.

1) They are ignorant of the divine principles of liberty

Without courageous preachers and teachers expounding, explaining,
exegeting, extrapolating, and elucidating the Biblical Natural Law
principles of liberty, Christians (as with anyone else) become quickly
dulled and unschooled in liberty principles. The great examples of
Abram, Gideon, Samson, David, Daniel, the three Hebrew children, John
the Baptist, Simon Peter, etc., are spiritualized away without the
principles behind those acts of faith and resistance being the least bit
taught, and without any practical application to the modern day. This
kind of preaching leaves men totally ignorant and unprepared to
understand and deal with modern acts of tyranny when they occur. And
this is exactly what is happening in the pulpits and churches of modern
America. But it gets even worse than that.

Not only are Christian ministers deliberately not teaching the divine
principles of liberty, they are aggressively misinforming their
congregations with erroneous teachings of Scripture relative to freedom
principles. And nowhere is this more evident than in the way the vast
majority of ministers are teaching Romans 13. This brings me to the
second point.
