I'm a Christian as Biblically defined. Postmillennialist. Theonomic-Reconstructionist (not a Christian Nationalist). Presuppositionalist in apologetics.
@andy_schreiber@TJSumpter No theonomist has a problem with WCF 19:4 or WCF 20:1, which only speaks of the abrogation of the ceremonial law, NOT the judicial law.
@andy_schreiber@TJSumpter So in your view, "natural law" is different from the law in scripture? Again, how does it differ, and where is it found, the Psalms? But the Psalms are scripture?
David Reece: Natural law as an alternative to theonomy is easy to defeat, if you know what your opponent is talking about.
Most natural law proponents will not very clearly define their view.
When they do, they either:
(1) agree with theonomy that the propositional revelation of the Triune God (Scripture) is the lone standard for doctrine and practice (including for the civil power), or(2) disagree with theonomy that the propositional revelation of the Triune God (Scripture) is the lone standard for doctrine and practice (including for the civil power).
If they disagree, then they reject Sola Scriptura and the term โnatural lawโ provides a useful distinguisher from theonomy.
If they agree, then we hold to the same position. What are we talking about? I propose we not use the term โnatural lawโ since it is less clear, and instead talk about the general equity of the civil laws of Israel. In other words, โtheonomyโ...

Here it is. Read it and weep. What a total and complete cave by Trump. As far as I can see, none of his imperatives at the beginning of the war are contained in the MOU. Billions will be given and sanctions lifted so they can rebuild their war and terrorist machine again. And the people of Iran will continue to be under these butcher's tyranny.

If this is true and Shapiro is right, Trump just caved, and any justification for this war was entirely bogus. It will also guarantee the loss of Congress and his impeachment. If the MAGA base doesn't abandon ship after this, I suppose it never will.

@ClaireFosterPHD@GOP_is_Gutless There is no such idiom as "folded like a potato." There is "folded like a sack of potatoes." Your 169 IQ didn't remember that?
