Biblical Civil
Government Versus the Beast; and, the Basis for Christian Resistance
by Greg Price
(This is the best modern testimony for the biblical principles of civil
magistracy -- which were so prominent during the height of the second
Reformation -- that we have seen. Price documents the teachings of many of the
major Reformers (and some of the church fathers) and in an easy reading manner
simplifies what can at times become a very complex subject. This particular
Reformation message, proclaiming Christ's Kingship over the nations [and the
practical outworking of the same], has been buried from the view of the general
public for some time now, but is once again being brought to light in this very
helpful introductory book. A sobering appendix has been added [written by a friend
of the covenanted Reformation] which shows why it is unlawful for a Christian
to swear any oath to uphold and defend the U.S. Constitution. This appendix
also compares the points of difference between classic [or historic] Reformed
teaching and modern Reformed teaching regarding magistracy and religion.
Special attention is payed to the OPC, the PCA and the RPCNA and the changes
that these groups have made to second Reformation confessional standards
[concerning matters related to the civil magistrate]. Statements by B.B.
Warfield are also contrasted to the older Reformed views. You won't find a
better easy-to-read and easy to understand introduction to this important topic
-- a topic which impacts directly on every Christian's testimony for the crown rights
of King Jesus!)
Biblical
Civil Government Versus the Beast and the Basis for Christian Civil Resistance
by Greg Price (FREE MP3, shorter version
as a sermon of the book above)
Pornography, the
Anabaptists, and Doug Wilson's Civil Antinomianism (1997) by
Reg Barrow (Pointed but irenic, Barrow
decisively refutes the view of Doug Wilson (cf. "Cyberporn: A Case
Study" [Credenda/Agenda, vol. 7, no. 5, p. 11]), many modern
Theonomists and the civil libertarians, that the production and distribution of
pornography is not a crime (and thus not subject to negative penal sanctions by
the civil magistrate). Barrow demonstrates that Wilson's view of civil
government (which logically results in such a monstrous conclusion) is actually
a overly strict view of the regulative principle. This
"hyper-regulativism" (denying lawful inferences, or what Samuel
Rutherford calls "logical consequence") is then wrongly applied to
the civil magistrate, rather than to worship (when rightly interpreted). He
also points out the link between Wilson's view and the principles of the
Anabaptists, Libertines and other antiestablishmentarian forces. With an
impressive array of historical citations (primarily John Calvin, George
Gillespie, Samuel Rutherford, and the Westminster Confession of Faith), and a
cogent analysis and application of relevant Scripture passages, Barrow shows
clearly that Wilson's view of civil government "gives birth to
illegitimate offspring in the case of pornography, contradicting as it does
common sense (the light of nature), our reformed fathers in the faith, and the
express commands and approved examples of Scripture. In short, it is anything
but the 'classical Protestant' position, and anything but biblical." This
item is also available as a bound photocopy for $1.99 [US funds]) and is
appendix "B" excerpted from Saul in the Cave
of Adullam: A Testimony Against the Fashionable Sub-Calvinism of Doug Wilson
(Editor of Credenda/Agenda

When Is
Civil Government So Constituted that Christians Can Swear Allegiance To It?
A Presbyterian
Political Manifesto by Michael Wagner (Using citations from great Presbyterians of the past [such as
Rutherford, Gillespie and Knox], as well as the thoughts of modern day
Reformers and Reconstructionists, Wagner demonstrates how the impossibility of
neutrality in civil matters leads inescapably to established religion. He then
builds the Biblical case for establishmentarianism and deals with some of the
hard questions regarding religious liberty and toleration (in such a state).
This book contains a great bibliography and is, in our opinion, the best short
work introducing the subject of civil establishments. Wagner has almost
completed his work on his Doctorate in political science at a major Canadian University.)

The

The
Appellation from the Sentence Pronounced by the Bishops and Clergy: Addressed
to the Nobility and Estates of Scotland (1558) by John Knox (Mason states that this Appeal "is
the most important... of Knox's political writings," [in the Introduction to his compilation of Knox's
political writings titled On Rebellion]. It shows in a conclusive
manner that Knox wanted a CIVIL ESTABLISHMENT of the Reformed religion, which
was careful to "disapprove, detest, oppose and remove all false worship
and all monuments of idolatry" [cf. Westminster Larger Catechism #108]. It
also clearly demonstrates that Knox believed in and promoted the continuing
binding validity of the moral equity found in Old Testament case laws and the
penal sanctions attached to them, including the death penalty. Kevin Reed, in a
editor's note, introducing this piece in his newly published Selected
Writing of John Knox, also points out that
"the Westminster Confession provides a distinct echo of Knox, when it
states that the magistrate "hath authority, and it is his duty, to take
order, that unity and peace be preserved in the church, that the truth of God
be kept pure and entire, that all blasphemies and heresies be suppressed, all
corruptions and abuses in worship and discipline prevented or reformed, and all
the ordinances of God duly settled, administered, and observed" [Ch. 23:3,
original wording]. One secular historian once described Knox as "Calvin
with a sword," making one wonder if he had not just been reading this very
book. For "[w]here Calvin merely permitted disobedience to an ungodly
ruler or immoral law, Knox championed armed rebellion -- a type of Calvinism
that made religious revolution in Scotland possible" [Christian
History, Issue 46, p. 35]. This is the best
of the best; don't miss it! Extracted from: Selected Writings of John
Knox: Public Epistles, Treatises, and Expositions to the Year 1559.)
What Is A Moral
Person? How God Views the Church and the Nations by David Scott,
John Cunningham, and George Smeaton (A clear and concise summary of
the biblical doctrine of the moral person; i.e. that God regards churches and
nations as moral entities separate from the individual members of which they
are composed. No Christian can afford not to understand this vital teaching! In
many ways this is a crux of the Covenanter position, underlying as it does upon
the issues of separation, civil government, the Covenants, eschatology, etc.)
Reformation
Civil Government by Reg Barrow
(This is Barrow's letter to the editor of the Christian Renewal
magazine. In it he challenges their review of Michael Wagner's Presbyterian
Political Manifesto [a free etext of
Wagner's work is listed below]. Barrow provides some good introductory insights
into historic, Calvinistic thought regarding civil government -- citing
Reformers and Confessions often. He also applies some of these teachings to the
present situation. Barrow is not afraid to name names when it comes to apostate
and antichristian political parties, as will become clear as you read his
stirring concluding rebuke.)
Of the
Samaritans, and of the Non Compelling of Heathens; How the Covenant Bindeth Us.
by Samuel Rutherford
Whether it
be lawful, just, and expedient, that the taking of the Solemn League and
Covenant be enjoined by the Parliament upon all persons in the kingdom under a
considerable penalty by George Gillespie (CHAPTER XVI. of "A Treatise of Miscellany Questions," pp.
85-88 from The Works of George Gillespie volume 2, Still Waters
Revival Books reprint. Includes "Nine particulars to be remembered for the
right deducing and stating the matter of fact. - The grounds and reasons of
such an ordinance and appointment may be eleven. - Four objections answered. -
How this ordinance would not be tyranny over men's consciences. - The covenant
is no temporary obligation. - If such an ordinance to the army be scandalum
acceptum, then the not making of it is scandalum
datum.)

Vindiciae Magistratus: or, the Divine Institution and Right of the Civil
Magistrate Vindicated (1773)
The title continues: "Wherein are properly stated and ascertained, the
true nature and extent of the moral power of civil society and magistracy,
legislative and executive. The just instituted authority of magistrates. The
inviolableness of just human laws and constitutions in general, and
particularly those of Scotland. The natural and unalienable rights of
individuals in, or with respect to civil society. And the true causes from
which a moral relation flows, and upon which a moral obligation is founded,
etc. Against the truly factious and immoral doctrine of John Thomson (Burger
Associate) minister of the gospel at Donaghclony in Ireland... maintained in
his pretended confutation of the principles of the Reformed Presbytery, in a
pamphlet entitled The Presbyterian Covenanter displayed in his political
Principles, and the Imposter detected. To which is subjoined by way
of appendix, A vindication of the constitution of the Reformed Presbytery, and
of the character, ministerial mission and authority of the Rev. Mr. John
M'Millan Senior, deceased, from the groundless cavils of Mr. W.W. and Seceders.
By his son. The whole being humbly offered as an apologetical representation
and defence of the principles of the said Presbytery, and of their people,
commonly known by the names of Old Dissenters, Cameronians, etc. against the
injurious charges and false imputations cast upon them, first by the
established church of Scotland, and then by the Secession." Goold, in his The
Reformed Presbyterian Church in Scotland: Its Origin and History 1680-1876, writes of Thorburn and this book, "He was a
man of studious habits, and his 'Vindiciae Magistratus,' in defence of the principles
of his Church against the attacks of the Secession, thought lacking the popular
style of the writings of some of his brethren, was not inferior to any of them
in thorough grasp of the truth, and power of argument. Lord Kames characterized
it as the 'best defences of Whig principles;' and the late Rev. Dr. A. M'Leod,
of New York, himself a man of distinguished ability, declared that he was more
indebted to Mr. Thorburn, of Pentland, than to any other man living or
dead." Upon his death Erskine said, "And he is gone! one of our
greatest divines." Goold also notes of Thorburn that "a large amount
of work developed on him in connection with the preparation of the 'Judicial
Act' (i.e. The Act, Declaration and Testimony for the Whole of Our
Covenanted Reformation--RB), so large that
he had to be freed for some time from his work as a preacher." He
"was the theologian of his Church; and in 1785 he was unanimously
appointed to be Tutor in Divinity to the students of the Church." This has
been called one of the best books ever written on the biblical view of the
civil magistrate -- don't miss it! 236 pages.

Reformation Politics Versus the Beast(1997)
An excellent summary of Price's latest book Biblical Civil Government Versus
the Beast; and, the Basis for Civil Resistance. Here Price lays out
the biblical and historical basis for the most highly developed aspects of
Reformation thought regarding civil government. He explains the biblical view
of civil magistracy and applies it to the present situation, showing why most
modern civil rulers are tyrants and thus should not be given conscientious
submission (according to Romans 13:1-7). Price's list of how modern rulers
habitually violate each of the ten commandments should prove illuminating, as
well as his citations from the searing indictments against wicked rulers given
from famous Reformed leaders of the past. This book also discusses tactics of
Christian resistance, while answering the question: Should Christians hold
office or vote in the present circumstances? This highly controversial cassette
will certainly seem shocking to those who are not familiar with Reformation
thought on this topic -- but it is faithful to Scripture, the original
confessions of the Reformation and the testimony of the covenanting martyrs
(who gave their lives resisting the civil beast and proclaiming Christ's
absolute Kingship over the nations).

opinion that Ages has done an excellent job in making various Reformed works
available on CD, so much so that we also distribute a number of their CDs at
discounts. Thus, please don't make more out of our publishing this comment than
is warranted, as this is a comment we received from one of our customers and it
expresses his opinion. As for Ages' work, we rejoice whenever the truth is
published, whether through others or through SWRB (as we play only a very small
part in the revival of classic Reformation, Puritan and Covenanter thought that
is now taking place worldwide through God's marvelous grace). The publication
of the best Reformers and Puritans of the past is one of the greatest needs of
our time, as this extends the blessings that come through faithful preachers
and authors into our day and into the future. Lord willing, the growth in the
publishing of faithful works from the past will help stem the tide of the great
declension and unfaithfulness which we are now witnessing all around us, even
(sadly) among many churches that still call themselves "Presbyterian"
and/or "Reformed." So please pray together with us that our Lord will
multiple the number of faithful publishers and publications, and that He will
give many the heart to stand for the truth no matter the consequences (as He
has done for our faithful forefathers, who resisted Satan and sin unto blood

Puritan and Reformation CD libraries are an invaluable source for the study of
the history and theology of classic Reformation theology. The collection is
remarkable not only for depth of content, but also for the rarity of many of
the works. Most seminary libraries will not have even a percentage of the works
available on these CD-ROMs. I cannot imagine anyone working in Reformation /
historical theology that would not want to use the Puritan and Reformed
libraries!"

"I
just received your CD collection. One bit of advice: you should instruct your
customers to take about 1 week off just to peruse the tables of contents for
these CD's, followed by another week off, in order to recover from the
state of shock in which they will find themselves.
In
all seriousness, this collection is almost impossible to describe. It has to be
seen to be believed. As a pastor, my library has just increased
dramatically.
As a Ph.D. student in Puritan and Post-Reformation studies, I have immediate
access to many of the same works for which I would normally need to access
through rare book rooms of theological libraries.
Thank
you for this labor of love. Thank you for making it accessible, both
financially and technologically. May the Lord richly bless you for this service
to his people."

"You
all are doing a wonderful service by making all these materials so readily
available. Having them on my hard drive is BETTER than having access to a
rare book library with all of them in hand... I have found the CD set
invaluable as a tool of scholarship. So once again I commend you brothers for making
it available."

"It's
been several weeks now since I received the CDs and have had some time to
digest some of them. All I can say is, "WOW!" This is truly a
library like no other, and has already paid great dividends not only in my own
personal worship and study, but in my teaching as well. I first balked at the
price, but after seeing the vastness of the material, I almost feel as though
I'm robbing you!
I
pray that the Lord will allow you to get these materials into the hands of as
many ministers as possible."

Full
SWRB CD comment from Dr. Moore:
This
collection of 62 CDs is a truly astounding accomplishment. There is nothing
like this available to the ordinary Christian on the whole face of the earth.
Now,
for the first time ever, ordinary Christians can have direct and near
effortless access to the very cream of Puritan and Reformed, as well as
Covenanter, literature.
These
books are often in fascinating first editions and many are electronically
linked and indexed for the first time. The ordinary Christian may here dig
into a simply staggering wealth of literature, from devotional and sermonic
material to technical and scholarly works. Even in the days of the Long Reformation
itself ordinary Christians didn't get to see this kind of library -- most
couldn't read for a start, and even those who could, would never have been able
to afford to buy even a hundredth part of the material on these CDs. Truly we
are without excuse!
And
the significance of this collection goes even beyond that. No longer do we have
to wait for modern Reformed publishing houses to predict that a particular
Reformation or Puritan book will be sufficiently popular to make it economical
to reprint, or to deem it "safe" enough to be let loose on the modern
evangelical church. Rather, we are now able to see for ourselves the whole
range of the Puritan and Reformed publishing enterprise, including views that
are usually suppressed by most modern devotees of "Puritan" piety!
Buy
these CDs while you can, and find out for yourself what the First and Second
Reformations were really all about! You'll be truly amazed, and, by God's
grace, will grow from being an ordinary Christian to being an extraordinary
one. What they used to say of the Puritan John Flavel's preaching, can be
said of these CDs: they are "hissing hot"!

"This
side of eternity I'll never be able to repay the favor you have done mankind by
bringing these... CDs together.
The
first week of reading I grew more as a Christian reading those rich, pure
Gospel Commentators than I have in 18 years of Christian life. After reading some of
the Puritan CDs I have to get the Reformation set if it kills me. A fire is
burning within me. These... CDs are liable to start a revival fire unseen in
any generation... the Gospel in its pure form is seen in these... CDs.
Sir,
I cant say enough. What a treasure! I'll never be able to repay you this side
of heaven, but when we get there I am sure you will see the rich fruits of your
labor. God bless you for not being money hungry but wanting to see Christians
grow in the Lord... I love you even though we have never met, you have
helped me in my Christian walk tremendously with these... CDs.
I
am not bragging on the flesh, I am just giving honor where honor is due. The
Holy Ghost will take these CDs and light a fire unseen and unheard of. God
bless you all at Still Waters."

"Thank
you so very much for the CDs.
I am amazed at the quality and quantity of
the literature...
I
cannot imagine any other single thing being done by any man or group of men in
the earth today that is of such extensive, present, and enduring value as
this CD work is.
God
be praised that he uses sickly and weak men to forward his kingdom, that the
work may not be mistaken to be wrought by the might of men, but by his Spirit.
His strength is perfected in weakness."
