THESIS 45: THE STATE DOES NOT SERVE GOD SELF-CONSCIOUSLY


Nevertheless,[171] these same "ministers" -- kings and leaders of political (polis-centered) systems -- can also be identified with Satan himself.[172] The "State" is only an unwitting "minister."[173] By definition, it is impossible for a State (a system of institutionalized violence and revenge) to self-consciously obey God's Law and serve Christ.[174]
