Fifth Sunday after Epiphany

Pastor Josh Harp

In a mixed community we do not desire a theocracy; rather, we oppose it with all our might,

for two cogent reasons: (1) Wherever such church rule was established, it always ended in

tyranny and the corruption of a people. (2) The church lacks the gifts required for giving

laws for civil society that evince intimate knowledge and understanding of civil life.
