The Whole World Is Watching
The following is my email sent to Hugh Hewitt a short time ago:
Hugh, I have to reluctantly disagree with your comment on last night’s show that civil disobedience is not called for here.
When the laws of men are in direct conflict with the higher moral law of God – and they clearly are here – a Christian’s duty is clear. He must stand for God’s law no matter what the consequences, even if that means civil disobedience. Peacefully, yes. Prayerfully, yes. Reluctantly and as a last resort, yes.
But stand he must.
The Christians in ancient Rome interposed themselves between gladiators and their victims, and died for their trouble. Pagan Rome became Christian as a result. We must do no less.
