About

We are a group of Christians dedicated to the gospel of Jesus Christ as set out by Jesus, the Apostles, the early church and then defended by Augustine, many medieval Christians, Luther, Calvin, Edwards and the Puritans, some of the Fundamentalists, and many modern Reformed and Evangelical people. The odd part? We are also convinced, both from political theory and from the Bible, that Anarchy is that which will bring a semblance of order to earthly society. We do not believe that the state works or that it is Biblical and, as such, we tout freedom from state. We have but one king and that is Christ.

An Update

(1)  We’re a member site of Liberty Web Alliance now.  They’re the group that brings you CopBlock.org and other valuable sites.  You can see the introductory interview that r0thbard conducted with me here: Interview with r0thbard.

I’m excited to continue the expansion of network, not because I like feeling like I’m part of a collective mind (like that has any value as a dictator of truth claim) but because cognitive friendship is a valuable asset in a time when our general understanding of things is seriously questioned by 95% of our peers.

It makes me realize that, yes, this is worth continuing.

(2)  We’re working through where we should go next.  We’ve made the sweeping position statements (here, here, here, and here) that I think are necessary to make.  We have some outstanding questions that I think we’ll spend some time answering over the next few weeks and we have the major pestering questions that Christians tend to hole up in and then refuse to listen to anything we say until we’ve answered them.  Since those questions revolve mainly around proof texts I think that what we’re going to do is intermittently address the texts.

My pastor is working through 1st Peter right now and I know how he is going to interpret 1st Peter 2 when it comes around so that may be where I start.  I have confidence that I’m going to receive more than a few in-my-face comments after that sermon so I’d like to have a prepared defense.

Anyway, if any of you follow us out there, that’s the plan.  Enjoy.
