09/30/2022 – “God has ordained the state as a delegated authority; it is not autonomous. The state is to be an agent of justice, to restrain evil by punishing the wrongdoer, and to protect the good in society. When it does the reverse, it has no proper authority. It is then a usurped authority and as such it becomes lawless and is tyranny.” Francis Schaeffer

Church Leadership – Francis Schaeffer bio – A Christian warrior within the one impregnable body of Christ. Soli Deo Gloria! “To whom much is given, much will be expected.” Luke 12:48. Pray and reach out to lost souls, so that they too might have a Savior to die for. To die to this world so that we are resurrected in His kingdom, our eternal home.

If I had to list the most impactful books in my life, outside of the Bible, Francis Schaeffer’s “How Then Shall We Live” would rank right up there in the top tier. He essentially presented the history of Western Civilization from a Christian Worldview perspective. God is sovereign!
Soli Deo Gloria!
