Ministering our people out of the Egyptian police state society they have gotten themselves into through their own iniquities, wickedness, idolatries, and vain philosophies, and back to the “old paths” of God’s natural order that has always been co-opted, corrupted, perverted, plundered, and destroyed, by Pharaohs, Caesars, all the political regimes throughout history, and all those who have always shamefully forsaken their Lord and worshiped these men.
“Cast away, each of you, the detestable things of your eyes, and do not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am the Lord your God” (Ezekiel 20:7).

- Common Objections Raised by Statists Against the Kingdom of God: A Christian Anarchist FAQ by Leaving Egypt MinistriesIn this article, we have compiled arguments from real debates we have engaged in to try and show the common objections that the statists of the world raise against the anarchist Gospel of God’s Kingdom, in hopes that such a format may provide a useful insight into the typical claims experienced by Christian Anarchists as they defend the Kingdom of God from the false converts of the world.
- The Wrongful Conflation of Politics and Religion by “Christian” Nationalists by Obadiah D. MorrisThe idea that “politics and religion” are two separate realms of a man is a false dichotomy. However, when men attempt to break out of it by becoming statists who engage in the politics of the world, they only show that they don’t understand the sense in which politics and religion are inseparable ideas.
- The False Dichotomy of “Politics and Religion”: On the Politics of Christianity and the False Religion of Statismby Obadiah D. MorrisWhen men arbitrarily divide “politics” and “religion” into separate realms, Christianity ceases to be seen as the political ethic of another Kingdom and is instead reduced to a merely private “religious” affair, which then allows men to believe they can engage in the statist politics of this world. If religion were understood as an actual practice of serving others, they wouldn’t be involved in statist politics or the institutional “churches.”
- On Repenting from Statism, Refusing Socialist Benefits, and Trusting in God’s Provisionby Obadiah D. MorrisJust as a people who prepare themselves to seek God’s Kingdom must repent of the statist ideology of the world, so they must also repent of receiving the socialist benefits of these kingdoms, which is to covet their neighbor’s property and bring themselves into tax bondage for this sin. Godly men must repent of such covetous practices and build a charitable network of assistance for men instead.
- The False Dichotomy of the Statist Kingdom-Seeker and the Apathetic Anti-Statist: On Seeking God’s Kingdom Apart From the Politics of the World by Obadiah D. MorrisOne major false dichotomy in political theology is the idea that all those who reject worldly politics are slothful to seeking the Kingdom of God, while the only people who care about it will involve themselves in the politics of the world. This idea is completely false. The only true Kingdom-seekers are anti-statists, and statists are not seeking God’s Kingdom at all.
- In Search of the Remnant: On Finding God’s Kingdom People Through Evangelism of the Gospelby Obadiah D. MorrisOnce we have become ideologically motivated to the anarchist Kingdom-politics of God, the great abolitionist plan of seeking God’s Kingdom eventually necessitates that we find other men to build with through real, on-the-ground evangelism that casts a wide net that works to find the sheep who hear the Lord’s voice and are ready to gather with you to serve each other and love their neighbors.
- The False Dichotomy of Heavenly Salvation and Earthly Liberation: The Gospel of Jesus Christ Against the False Gospels of Statists by Obadiah D. MorrisBy failing to understand the political nature of gospels and making the salvation of the Lord into a purely heavenly and afterlife matter, men have been able to engage a false dichotomy where God’s Kingdom is not seen as a literal one to replace man’s kingdoms and where the latter are seen as necessary to salvation on earth. In the process, they have bought into the false gospels of statism.
- On the Myth of a “Statist Theocracy” Versus a “Non-Theocratic State”: Further Thoughts on Anarcho-Theocracyby Obadiah D. MorrisWhen it is not understood that all social systems are theocratic or religion and that the true political spectrum is anarcho-theocracy to statist-theocracy, then it becomes possible to give support to the false dichotomy that one can have a “Christian” State or a “secular” State, when both these are just the myths that God’s true theocracy is statist or that non-theocratic statism is possible repeated.
- On the Myth of the “God-Ordained State” vs. the “Evil State”by Obadiah D. MorrisThe prevailing idea in Christianity is that the “true purpose” of the State is to act as God’s “ordained” institution for justice and law in society. A false dichotomy is then created where the State fulfills this role or is an “ungodly state.” The truth is that all States are ungodly and evil and that their only “ordained” purpose is bringing judgment upon the sinners who set them up.
- On the Myth of a “Christian State” or a “Secular State” by Obadiah D. MorrisOne of the main ways that statists of all stripes are able to imagine that they can engage in statism without it contradicting their claims of being “religious” or “atheistic” is by maintaining a false dichotomy where the State is either “Christian” or “secular.” By tearing down this dichotomy, we can show that the “Christian statist” and the “secular statist” are mythical creatures.
- The Misappropriation of Isaiah 6:8 by Statists: On the Mutual Exclusivity of Military Service and Prophetic Callingby Obadiah D. MorrisOf a handful of scriptures that statists desperately seek to make a case for their wicked service and support for worldly empires as a Biblical one, one commonly corrupted one is for men to reference Isaiah’s answering of his God-given mission as supposedly akin to the devilish mission of joining the militaries or police force of human government.
- The Biblical Prophets’ Rebuke of Statism: The Minor Prophets Against the Political Order of Manby Obadiah D. MorrisThe whole ministry of the Biblical prophets was one of rebuking the corrupt and unjust order that was being perpetuated by human rulers and the religious establishment that has always been in bed with the state rulers, all who have set themselves up against God. In this segment, we cover the books of the minor prophets first as a defense of this clear thesis.
- On the “Problem of Evil” and the Sin of Human Civil Governmentby Obadiah D. MorrisIt is commonly argued by self-called atheists that the existence of evils like sickness or political tyranny either disproves the existence of God or must just show that He is an arbitrary tyrant who doesn’t care about the prevalence of evil in our world. However, most of the evils in our world are a result of man’s open sin, which God has punished. They are not things that have come upon us undeservedly.
- Themes of the Biblical Prophets: On Political Injustices, Warnings of Judgment, Pleas for Repentance, Divine Justice, Waking up to Sin and Bondage, and Deliverance From Captivityby Obadiah D. MorrisSome of the main themes of the Biblical prophets present us with a picture of the various phases of the political cycle that mankind has always been on, where statism corrupts a society, invites God’s judgment, and eventually destroys a people to teach them how to repent — all of which present a Christian Anarchist case for seeking God’s Kingdom instead.
- A Few Failed Prooftexts of “Christian” Nationalism: On Psalm 33:12, the Great Commission, and the Dominion Mandateby Obadiah D. MorrisOften through small things like lazily conflating the word “nations” in the Bible to mean “State,” so-called “Christian Nationalists” work to use the Great Commission and other scriptures like Psalm 33:12 to try and build a case for their worldly political agenda. These, however, are prooftexts for Christian Anarchism, not statism.
- The Persecution of the Prophets as Proof of Their Preaching of Repentance and Judgment for the Sin of Statismby Obadiah D. MorrisBy showing that the prophets were persecuted by political rulers, the “religious” establishment elites, and the people themselves, for their warnings of judgment upon the sinful political orders of the day and all the injustices inherent to them, we can strengthen the case the ministry of the prophets was necessarily a political one that confronted and condemned the sins of statism.
- Taking God’s Word of Rebuke and Warning of Judgment to the Rulersby Obadiah D. MorrisIn order to show that the divine mission given to the prophets was necessarily to rebuke statism and call people to repent from the idolatry and evils involved in supporting the man-made kingdoms of the world, we must also show that the prophets were directly confronting state rulers with this message of repentance and judgment.
- The Corrupt Political Setting of the Prophets: Statist Injustices as a Cause for Judgmentby Obadiah D. MorrisIn this series’ attempt to show that the prophets were necessarily rebuking statist societies, this article attempts to lay out the political scene that the prophets were preaching upon, so as to show that the corruptions and perversions of justice they had come upon, which could not be disconnected from the political systems of the day, were the cause for judgment.
- The Warning Against Trusting in Human Rulers in the Prophets: A Biblical Lesson on the Sin of Statismby Obadiah D. MorrisThe prophets make it abundantly clear that trusting in worldly systems of human government and their militaries, as idolatrous men still do today, is against the counsel of the Lord and a rejection of His Kingship. In this article, we begin to further the case that statism is the essence of sin and rebellion against God, and therefore a forbidden philosophy for the Christian to hold.
- On God’s Use of State Rulers in the Prophetsby Obadiah D. MorrisThe failure to understand God’s use of state rulers as judgment against a people who have turned from the Lord as their King and ruler, which is particularly prominent in the books of the prophets, has had far reaching effects on the political theology of men today, who have adopted many of statist fallacies for not realizing the sense in which the State might be called “ordained” by God.
- On Statism and Christianity, the False Church, and Building the Kingdom of Godby Zachary GomezIn a modern Christianity that can barely be called as much due to the infection of statism that has spread like cancer through professing believers today, there is a widespread belief that we should be doing nothing more than going to church, when what Christians should really be doing is seeking God’s Kingdom. Even worse, men have been made to believe they can participate in worldly kingdoms.
- On the Neglect of the Biblical Prophets and Their Teachings In Modern Christianityby Obadiah D. MorrisIt is evident today, in both Christianity and outside it, that men are not very well-acquainted with the Biblical prophets — hence why they are not able to understand the political bondage we are in today as a result of the sin of trusting in human government and the divine judgment upon that sin, and still continue believing that this institution can save us from the evils it has brought.
- A Biblical Epistemology in a Humanistic World: The Economic and Moral Law of Liberty as the Laws of Godby Obadiah D. MorrisThough it’s common in our “secular” age to ask for the logic or reasoning behind the case for a free society, men of God should be comfortable accepting the social laws of our world—our cause and effect universe—purely for coming from the mouth of God. We know that blessings come upon those who seek God’s Kingdom and curses befall those who set up man-made political systems because “thus saith the Lord.”
- Encountering Resistance While Preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom of Godby Obadiah D. MorrisAs anyone knows who has ever preached the true Gospel of the Kingdom of God, which is another Kingdom altogether from the false man-made political systems of the world, one is bound to encounter resistance both from the general public and the vast majority of professing Christians, both who buy into the false religion of statism. We must prepare for it as we seek God’s Kingdom.
- Leaving Behind the Statist Political Philosophy of the Worldby Obadiah D. MorrisIn order to pursue the abolitionist cause and seek the Kingdom of God, men will have to abandon the statist philosophies and practices of the world, which apologized for the existence of human civil government and partook in their rituals like voting. They will have to renew their minds and abandon all the old fallacies they have heard about being “a citizen of two kingdoms” and seek God’s Kingdom alone.
- On Political Bondage and Bringing the Gospel to the People and the Rulersby Obadiah D. MorrisThe Gospel of the Kingdom of God—that Jesus has reconciled us to God and came to liberate us from the dominion of man over man and shares His Kingship with no other man—must be preached to both the people who have gotten themselves into bondage and the people who rule over them. This article contains a message at the end that you could send to a politician that you might have access to.
- Prayers of Deliverance From Bondage: An Analysis of Biblical Prayer and the Prevalence of Seeking Salvation From Enemiesby Obadiah D. MorrisThough the prayers of most people today are probably much more oriented toward their personal lives or obtaining worldly luxuries, the prayers of men in the Bible were often way more focused on the political bondage we’re living under, repentance for the sins of idolatry that led to the captivity, and praying to God for salvation from our enemies.
- Article Series on “Statism and Adultery”by Leaving Egypt MinistriesThis article series covers the Biblical use of the terms adultery and whoredom and such and shows how they are largely used as a metaphor to explain a people who lust after human kings and rulers to protect them, just as the so-called “Christians” in America today we see no problem with supporting presidents, “the troops,” and police.
- Article Series on “Statism and Salvation”by Leaving Egypt MinistriesThe is an article series that points out how Biblical salvation has very much to do with God liberating His people from the bondage of statism and how statism is a competing, God-forsaking theory of salvation that brings bondage rather than deliverance.
- Article Series on the “Temptation of Egypt”by Leaving Egypt MinistriesThis is a 5-part article series covering the artificial prosperity of statist societies that entice men into accepting their bondage for perceived comforts, benefits, and privileges of these Egyptian societies, rather than seeking the Kingdom of God as the only truly peaceful, prosperous, and enduring society.
- Article Series on “Allegiance to God Alone“by Leaving Egypt MinistriesThis is an article series on allegiance to God alone, which shows that all those who follow the Lord must repent from any notion of serving or pledging allegiance to the man-made kingdoms of the world and seek the Kingdom of God alone at the exclusion of all other false kings and kingdoms.
- Article Series on Anarcho-Theocracyby Leaving Egypt MinistriesThis is our 6-part series on the anarchistic nature of the Kingdom of God, the politics of those who seek it, how it relates to the false religion of statism, where it sits on a political spectrum, and what the results are for the choices that men must make between these rival theocratic orders.
- Prosperity and the Kingdom of Godby Obadiah D. MorrisFor many Christians today, there is a strong aversion to earthly prosperity at all. This is in part due to a view of salvation and the gospel that shuns any earthly hopes to focus only on the spiritual and eternal. But we cannot ignore the many Biblical promises of real blessings of prosperity for those who seek God’s Kingdom. God wants us to prosper.
- The Ideological Drive for God’s Kingdomby Obadiah D. MorrisOur God-given purpose on this earth is to seek the Kingdom of God and live freely. But we have gone into captivity to men for our sin of idolatry and sloth to His ways. In order to take back our inheritance from the strangers who plunder it and begin to seek divine liberation from this Egyptian bondage, we must become radical and ideological for the Abolitionist cause.
- On the Peace and Security of God’s Liberty, and the False Dichotomy of “Dangerous Liberty” or “Peaceful Slavery”by Obadiah D. MorrisIt has been said that men choose between a “dangerous liberty” or a “peaceful slavery,” suggesting that it is better to have a State than to have an anarchist society. This is a false dichotomy. Political rule isn’t peaceful, and Liberty isn’t dangerous.
- Providential Political Economy: On God’s Law of Liberty in the Economics of Frederic Bastiat by Obadiah D. MorrisIt is not emphasized enough just how much the political economy of Frederic Bastiat was in keeping with God’s word and Spirit, when it cannot even be legitimately separated from the theological foundation on which he stood it upon. Arguably, what is needed today is a return of defending Liberty on the basis of it being God’s natural order, as opposed to the sandy “secular” foundation it stands on today.
- On Finding God Through Social Disorder: The Injustices and Evils of Political Societies as Judgment and Divine Correction for the Idolatry and Whoredom of Statism by Obadiah D. MorrisWhether a people are delivered by God from political bondage for repenting of their worldly ideology that upholds the existence of worldly rulers, or whether they are in bondage due to this sin of supporting them and suffering under the ramifications for their decision, God means both liberty and slavery to be a sign that men have either follow after Him or chased after false gods.
- On the Adulterated Message of Biblical Adultery By False Pastors by Obadiah D. MorrisDespite the prophets using the metaphor of adulterers, prostitutes, and whores to describe a people like the majority of men in our world who idolize human government and their soldiers and police, few Christians have any grasp of this concept. This ignorance isn’t helped by the false pastors of the world who are statist adulterers themselves.
- Christarchism: On the Lord as Our Only Kingby Obadiah D. MorrisMen can either choose to make the Lord their King and live freely in a stateless society that He rules over, or they can make men their kings and live in a statist plunder society that dominates them and makes people into slaves. All true Christians must decidedly be anarchists as far as the kingdoms of men go.
- Recovering the Kingdom-Seeking Mindset Among Christians — A Book Review of Paradise Restored by David Chiltonby Obadiah D. MorrisDavid Chilton’s book Paradise Restored is highly motivating work on eschatology that holds a lot of hope for turning men back toward working on the Kingdom of God and getting them out of the doom and gloom worldview that has sent them into despair. It is just what men need to be inspired into action who have been led to believe our situation down below is hopeless.
- State Rulers As Teachers of the Whoredom of Statismby Obadiah D. MorrisThe philosophy of statism is ideological whoredom, where both rulers and supporters engage in an adulterous relationship with political power. While the average man doesn’t need much help prostituting himself out to political power in his own distrust in the Lord, the rulers themselves also teach this statist harlotry in order to seduce others into political idolatry in order to secure their power.
- Repenting for the Adultery of Statism: On God’s Use of Political Evils to Turn Men Away From Egyptian Bondageby Obadiah D. MorrisWhen men whore themselves out to the statists of the world for protection and welfare, they find themselves living in bondage to human rulers for this sin of political adultery. When the inevitable evils of these men expand and the consequences of their whoredom become great enough, God hopes that men will see the need to repent and return to Him as their King.
- The Political Plunder Conspiracy as Documented in the Bibleby Obadiah D. MorrisThe conspiracy to plunder humanity by evil men who work through the kingdoms of this world to hatch their plots against us and legitimize them under the name of “the law” is well-documented in Scripture. Indeed, one has not yet realized the depth of the global conspiracy unless they have seen this Biblical-spiritual component.
- Conspiracy: Theory and Scriptureby Obadiah D. MorrisNotwithstanding its use as a pejorative that is intended to dismiss those who see through the political scheming in our world, conspiracy theory is a legitimate lens in which to view the world and its systems. We are ruled by evil men who plot against us and prey upon us. The Bible documents it.
- Liberation From Egyptian Bondage Through Repentance From the Statist Belief in False Gods by Obadiah D. MorrisMen go into bondage to human rulers due to sin, and are likewise liberated from this bondage when they repent from these sins. For the sinful ideology of statism, God allows human rulers to come upon people as a curse. But those who repent from this worldly philosophy are blessed with liberty.
- Christians Must Be Anarchists: On God’s Command to Have No Other Gods by Obadiah D. MorrisThe divine command to have no other gods than the Lord was nothing less than a commandment to not chase after the false gods of human government. Those who champion and vote for these false gods are therefore in disagreement with the commands of God, which can only be fulfilled by opposing human rulers.
- The Evils of Political Prostitution: On the Violence of Statist Adulteryby Obadiah D. MorrisThose who whore themselves out to human governments aren’t merely adulterers to the Lord through some innocent idolatry for men. Rather, they are inevitably lusting after power, violence, bloodshed, injustice, corruption, and criminality, and all the other things that these political systems necessarily entail and perpetuate.
- The Price Men Pay For Cheating on God With Human Government: On Statist Adultery and Slaveryby Obadiah D. MorrisWhen men cheat on God with States and go whoring after militaries to protect them, they must expect to go into bondage to these men as a consequence for this adultery. The price men pay for prostituting themselves out to human rulers and lusting over them is to live in captivity to them.
- The Whoredom, Harlotry, Adultery, and Prostitution of Statismby Obadiah D. MorrisThough Christians might often think of terms like adultery and whoredom to mean nothing more than spousal infidelity and sexual promiscuity, scripture often employs these terms in a metaphorical way to refer to the idolatry and sin of statism, where people cheat on God with human rulers and their political systems.
- Intersections in Anarchist and Christian Thought: A Book Review of “Anarchy and Christianity” by Jacques Ellulby Obadiah D. MorrisThis is a book review of Jacques Ellul’s 1988 work titled “Anarchy and Christianity.”
- The Price We Pay for Trusting in Salvation Through Statism: Domination by Men as Divine Justice for Rejecting God’s Protection by Obadiah D. MorrisWhen men believe that human governments are needed for protection from enemies, rather than trusting in God as their Savior, they will inevitably discover that the opposite results, and, as a punishment from God himself, will find themselves ruled by tyrants who hate them and plunder them for all their worth.
- The False Salvation of the State: How Trusting in Human Rulers For Protection Forsakes the Lord as Your Saviorby Obadiah D. MorrisSince God’s salvation is very much about protecting His people from real-world enemies and freeing them from systems of Egyptian bondage, it is clear that trusting in the kingdoms of this world for protection, as men do anytime they claim human civil government is necessary to social order, is to abandon God’s salvation to trust in men as one’s “saviors.”
- God’s Salvation as Freedom From Statismby Obadiah D. MorrisThe popular idea of salvation in Christianity today is an almost purely otherworldly concept of the destination of our eternal soul in heaven, stripped of all hope for divine deliverance from our this-worldly enemies. If we look at God’s word, however, we see endless examples of God literally and physically saving His people from statist oppressors.
- The State As God’s “Servant” — For Judgment Upon a Statist Peopleby Obadiah D. MorrisWithout understanding what it means that human rulers can be “ordained” by God as His “servants,” people are likely to believe that human governments “serve” God in a positive sense of bringing “law and order” to society, when in fact they “serve” God by bringing lawlessness and disorder to a society as a form of judgment against statist sinners.
- Totalitarianism Begins in a Wicked Heartby Obadiah D. MorrisTo buy into statist ideologies like socialism cannot be explained as mere economic ignorance, but more so that men are lost in sin. This is true of its malevolent practitioners as much as the lay advocates of such ideas. To explain this sin problem as mere economic ignorance is deficient. The spiritual deception that underlies these ideologies requires not more economic education, but for men to turn back to God.
- Are We To Follow the Ungodly Masses? On Leaving Egypt While Others Stay Behindby Obadiah D. MorrisOne thing that keeps people participating in the systems of this world is the idea that other people are going to do it anyway and, therefore, we should do the same. This is nothing but worldly temptation. God’s people should be walking out of Egypt even if others demand to stay behind believing they can salvage their false and failing kingdoms.
- Article Series on God and Justiceby Leaving Egypt MinistriesHere is a ten-part series on God’s love of justice and liberty and His despise for the political plunder systems that men seek in their sin.
- Repentance of the Sin of Statism and Prayer for Restoration of Liberty Under Godby Obadiah D. MorrisWe have sinfully believed that we needed human rulers to lord over us and provide alleged “public goods” in order to have social order, and we have found ourselves justly living in captivity for this defiance of God’s commands. It’s time to repent of the political systems and seek the Kingdom of God as our only hope.
- God’s Judgment of the Unjust Political Plunderersby Obadiah D. MorrisThough the evil statist systems of the world function as a means of God’s judgment upon a sinful people who are foolish enough to set them up, they are nevertheless evil themselves and also come under judgment from God for their sins, which He once used to bring terror upon a people’s wicked works.
- On Squandering Our God-Given Liberty to the Kingdoms of Menby Obadiah D. MorrisGod made men to live freely under Him, not to be property of the State. Much to His dismay, however, our people have followed after the ways of men instead of the ways of the Lord, and we have found ourselves living in captivity to human rulers for our own iniquity and idolatry for human government.
- God Cares About Justice, Not “Religious” Rituals: The Institutional Church as a False Substitute for the Kingdom of Godby Obadiah D. MorrisThe institutions that go by the name of a “church” today are nothing more than distractions that keep people from seeking the Kingdom of God, which has everything to do with seeking justice, freedom, and actually serving one another in brotherly love, and very little to do with the rituals that men have mistake for “worship.”
- Biblical Liberty: An Anarchist Commentary on the Holy Scriptures, The Minor Prophets — Hoseaby Leaving Egypt MinistriesThis book on the prophet Hosea is the first in a series of books by Obadiah D. Morris to provide an anti-statist commentary on the Holy Scriptures.
- You Reap What You Sow: On the Predictable Evils of Statismby Obadiah D. MorrisThe Biblical truth that a people reap what they sow perfectly explains the Egyptian police state society we live under today, where sowing the wicked seeds of human civil government have done nothing but reap a predictably evil harvest. It’s time we repent from these evils and seek the Kingdom of God if we wish to turn back the curse of statism.
- On Sin and Bondage: How Man’s Rebellion Against God’s Kingship Leads to Political Slaveryby Obadiah D. MorrisGoing under human civil government to feed and protect you is a sin because it makes you an accomplice to the theft, murder, idolatry, and other violations of God’s law that these systems are based on. This sin is repaid with bondage, where men find themselves feeding a class of political parasites as a punishment for their refusal to be ruled by God.
- Forgetting God’s Justice: On the Statist Corruption of Man’s Mindby Obadiah D. MorrisMany Christians today neglect their responsibility to pursue justice on earth and focus more on personal salvation and the afterlife. Yet this very heavenly-minded abdication of responsibility is what has led to the great injustices of political rule that have come upon us today. They have forgotten that God desires us to seek justice, and have strayed from seeing it the longer these evils have continued.
- On God’s Love of Justice and Leaving the Bondage of Egyptby Obadiah D. MorrisIt is not too common in modern Christianity to hear anyone emphasize God’s love of justice and His sorrowful view of the injustices that we have made in our world. But God hates the political plunder systems we live under today, and He calls us to seek true justice as part of our general seeking of His kingdom.
- The Political Perversion of Justice as Divine Judgmentby Obadiah D. MorrisAs evil as the system of human government is, it is only a reflection of our own evils, where we have handed over our Godly responsibilities to the kingdoms of men. For this grave error, we are punished with great injustices that prevail all throughout society that act as divine judgment upon a backward people.
- The Perversion of Justice Under Statist Law Systemsby Obadiah D. MorrisWhenever men abdicate their godly responsibilities to one another and hand the administration of justice and law over to state rulers to monopolize and control it, these men are naturally able to turn it into an instrument of plunder, and the whole nature of law is perverted and turned into a weapon against the people they pretend to protect.
- It Is Not Possible to Serve God and the State: Or Why Police Officers Must Repentby Obadiah D. MorrisTrue followers of Christ must reject the State and its enforcement agents, who are regularly involved in oppressive and violent systems that contradict God’s principles. Mere verbal claims of faith are insufficient proof of one’s allegiance to God; genuine faith necessitates a transformation in behaviors, including a complete renunciation of roles that perpetrate systemic injustices. Repentance and a commitment to righteousness are essential for the servant of the Lord.
- Christians Don’t Need “Defense Departments,” We Have God Our Protectorby Obadiah D. MorrisMany who profess to be followers of the Lord have drawn illegitimate exceptions to their faith when it comes to worldly institutions. Thinking of the Lord as nothing more than their soul-saver, they find it acceptable to turn to human rulers and soldiers to protect them, when this is actually a rebellion against God. God’s true people should trust in the Lord as their “national defense.”
- Is Your Pastor a State-Trained Romans 13 Propagandist?by Obadiah D. MorrisThose who know just how much God hates statism are well aware of the anxious citation of Romans 13 by Christians to justify their own statolatry. This scripture has been historically manipulated to support tyranny. But did you know that church leaders have been trained by the government to use it as a weapon for gaining obedience from believers?
- Statism is Always Sinful, Not Just When It Inevitably Grows Out of Controlby Obadiah D. MorrisAll States are born in sin and rebellion to God. When the definition of statism is arbitrarily limited to include only those political systems that exceed some arbitrary bounds for what a State is “supposed to be” doing, they ignore the inherent sin-nature of these systems and seek to reform them to their alleged bounds, rather than repent from them altogether and seek the Kingdom of God.
- The Inevitable Decline of Egyptian Plunder Systems and the Necessity of Seeking the Kingdom of Godby Obadiah D. MorrisAlthough the prosperity of inflationist regimes may mask their underlying destruction and plunder for some time, all empires inevitably fall and come under judgment for their sin of theft, inflation, murder, and oppression. Those who want to survive the collapse must seek the Kingdom of God as the only alternative to the failing systems of men.
- The Seduction of Egyptian Statist Societies and the True Prosperity of the Kingdom of Godby Obadiah D. MorrisIt is easy for men to be lured into the illusion of prosperity under man’s political systems, given that inflationary regimes may appear to offer great prosperity for some time. Since true prosperity and economic stability requires patience and faith in God, many people end up forsaking God for the perceived prosperity of Egypts and Romes, under the delusion that these plunder regimes can last forever.
- Statism as a Lack of Faith in God: Why Men Remain in Egyptian Bondageby Obadiah D. MorrisThe Israelites’ longing to return to Egypt during their exodus parallels modern trust in the State. Those who lack faith in God turn back to human rulers to provide for them at the cost of their enslavement, and this lack of faith helps to empower the systems of man. Political bondage is made possible by men who believe socialist systems are the way to secure liberty and prosperity.
- Why Men Always Run Back to Egyptian Bondage: The Temptation of Worldly Prosperityby Obadiah D. MorrisThe temporary comforts of Egyptian-statist systems are usually sufficient to make men complacent to their bondage. Just as men before had failed to trust in God to provide for them, looking back to the alleged benefits of Egypt, so today they find it preferable to trust in States to deliver peace and prosperity than to put their faith in divine deliverance and providential provision, even though man’s systems are unsustainable.
- False Prosperity and Delusion in the American Empireby Obadiah D. MorrisHuman government operates as a parasitic entity that thrives on wealth extraction through taxation that ultimately destroys economies and societies. Despite appearing prosperous due to its global economic dominance and the status of the U.S. dollar, the system is built on unsustainable practices of plunder and debt. Though a false prosperity masks underlying destruction for now, which has kept men hopeful, the U.S. faces an inevitable day of reckoning.
- A Plea to God on a Cold January Dayby Obadiah D. MorrisSometimes the Spirit of the Lord has it that a long winded cry comes upon a man at the condition of political bondage which he lives under, and the longing to see the Kingdom of God appear.
- We Are Ruled By Wicked Plunderers, Not Well-Intentioned Foolsby Obadiah D. MorrisIt is foolish to think that political intervention stems from ignorance rather than malice. We are ruled by men who intentionally enact harmful policies to expand their power and enrich themselves, using deceptive narratives about the “common good” to do so. Understanding economics won’t change the actions of the men who rule over us, as their actions are driven by calculated exploitation. True change requires rejecting these inherently corrupt systems.
- On Building the Kingdom of God and Freeing the Slavesby Jim DavidsonAs the apostle James says, true Christianity is not just being a hearer of the word but a doer.
