FAMILY


V. The Family: The Nursery of Global Reconciliation

For from Zion will go forth the Law
Even the Word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
And He will judge between many peoples
And render decisions for mighty, distant nations.
And each of them will sit under his
Vine and under his fig tree,
With no one to make them afraid.
For the LORD of hosts has spoken.

Micah 4:2-4

From the days of Thomas Jefferson to the modern-day "Jesus Seminar," arm-chair theologians have crafted theories about what Jesus "really" said. And if there's one thing that Jesus truly, inescapably said, it is that we should call God "Father."

"Of whom every family in heaven and earth is named . . . " (Ephesians 3:15).

Human beings are created in the Image of God, and family-ness is basic to being human. Broken homes mean broken people.

If we learn to accept and obey the authority of our parents, we learn to accept authority in every sphere. We become productive, stress-free, confident.

Then He went down to Nazareth with his parents and was obedient to them.
And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men
. (Luke 2:51-52)

In the Garden of Eden there was the Family. There was no priesthood, no State.

All human beings are created in families. Patriarchy is an inescapable concept. If the Christian pater does not train his family in the Ways of Peace, he will be oppressed by a “paternalistic” State.

The Institutions of Church and State are unBiblical. They reflect rebellion against God's Law.

The whole history of man as recorded in the Bible is the history of sinful rebellion against society as created in the Garden of Eden, and the construction of institutions based on coercion and violence. It is the history of Politics vs. Patriarchy.

Not Priesthood, nor Statecraft: The Family is God's Central Institution.

Training Ground for Morality, Forgiveness, Self-Discipline, Competence.

Obedience through the Family eliminates tyranny, protects property.

Institutions such as Church and State were formed in rebellion, not faith.
