God's law — Lamb's Reign Writings

Protectionism is in clear opposition to the liberty prescribed in God’s law regarding international trade. God allowed His people to trade freely with other nations (Deut 2:2-7), even if they were enemies. Civil rulers were never given the right to interfere with the free enterprise of individuals and their trade agreements. Their role is limited to punishing wrongdoers (Rom 13:4). When people are left to trade freely according to God’s will and design, things go generally well for both parties of a trade. Through free trade, we have seen prosperity reach the most impoverished countries, the spread of Christian culture and ideas, and a restrain on war. Free trade is a blessing and gift from God.

The Lockdowns are not Lawful or Loving

We as God’s people have an incredible opening to teach the nations about the beauty of Christ and the soundness of his law through this coronavirus ordeal. The more this heavy-handed statism manifests itself through the coronavirus lockdowns, the more this false kingdom is being exposed as being devoid of all moral substance.

Blue-Colored Glasses

The reason is simple. These police apologists wear blue-colored glasses in which a man with a badge can do no wrong and they have already made up their mind. When faced with contrary evidence, these otherwise rational individuals will twist facts and give an endless line of excuses. They esteem a certain class of men to the point they are unable to see any wrong in them, even when the evidence is hard and numerous.

God's Law And The Minimum Wage

The minimum wage is usually not thought of as a mechanism that oppresses the poor. Taking its intended purpose at face value (i.e. help low-skilled workers earn more income) would lead us to think the exact opposite. But that is exactly what the minimum wage accomplishes. It is a man made law that oppresses the poor by cutting off low-skilled workers from getting an entry-level job. God’s word teaches that all men were endowed with the right to work (Gen 1:28) and receive payment for the labor they do for others (Lev 19:13; Deut 24:15; Matt 10:10; Luke 10:7; 1 Tim 5:18). Any man made law that prohibits two individuals from making a mutual agreement in trading labor for wages is unjust and has negative consequences.

God's Law, Economics, And Healthcare For The Poor

America’s healthcare system as we know it today is a great mess; all because we refuse to follow God’s law which is simple, easy to follow, and not burdensome (Deut 30:11; John 5:3). Mankind saw that society was sick and instead of trusting in God for direction, we turned to the State as the answer to all our medical needs. The result has been harmful--exorbitant prices, restricted access, and lower quality.
