JOHN KNOX vs. BILL CLINTON



John Knox writes:

2. No manifest idolater, nor notorious transgressor of God�s holy precepts, ought to be promoted to any public regiment [government], honour, or dignity, in any realm, province, or city that has subjected itself to the blessed evangel.

3. Neither can oath nor promise bind any such people to obey and maintain tyrants against God and against his truth known.

4. But if either rashly they have promoted any manifestly wicked, or yet ignorantly have chosen such a one, as after declares himself unworthy of regiment above the people of God (and such be all idolaters and cruel persecutors), most justly may the same men depose and punish, that unadvisedly before they did nominate, appoint and elect.

BIBLICAL CIVIL GOVERNMENT VERSUS THE BEAST; & THE BASIS FOR CIVIL RESISTANCE
by Greg Price (1996)

Reformation resistance to unlawful civil rulers proclaimed, explained and defended! This is the best modern testimony for the biblical principles of civil magistracy -- which were so prominent during both great Reformations -- that we have seen. Price documents the teachings of Scripture, many of the major Reformers and some of the early church fathers -- in an easy-reading manner which simplifies what can at times become a very complex subject. You won�t find a better 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! One appendix deals with specific points of backsliding from Reformation attainments regarding civil rule; proving how groups like the OPC, PCA, RPCNA, etc. have altered the original Westminster Confession of Faith. �Price also manages to present his... thesis without a strident tone� (The Christian Statesman).
