Böcker av Chris Hume

Christ, not the state, is King. He is the ruler of kings on the earth (Revelation 1:5), and as such, he sets the rules for civil governments. Those civil rulers who reject Christ set themselves "against the Lord and against his anointed" (Psalm 2:2). But Christ is not mocked, and whatever a man sows, so shall he reap. Civil rulers can be sure their statist sins will find them out, and they would do well to repent speedily lest Christ be angry, and they perish in the way (cf. Psalm 2:12). In Seven Statist Sins, Chris Hume provides seven indictments against the civil government of the United States. In so doing, he provides a path for repentance necessary to see blessing in the land. Endorsements for Seven Statist Sins: Rev. Dr. Joseph Boot: "Chris Hume has a delivered a refreshingly direct, accessible and practical discussion of the prevailing statist mentality in the West, clearly calling out the sins that have so easily entangled our age. This is no despairing jeremiad, however; Chris displays a confident assurance in the present reign and ultimate triumph of the Lord Jesus Christ and His kingdom over all the earth, acknowledging that even if America continues to slide into apostasy, God will raise up other nations to follow after His law word, so that the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. A powerful antidote to modern evangelicalism's pious political 'neutrality' and concomitant retreatist defeatism." Dr. Kenneth L. Gentry, Jr.: "I am delighted to endorse Chris Hume's Seven Statist Sins. As the title suggests, the author has distilled the essence of the sinful character of statism. This book promotes a Christian worldview analysis of important political and cultural issues that conservative Christians desperately need today. I highly commend this work to the thinking, concerned Christian." Luke Saint: "As American patriots, our love for the Founding Fathers and the Constitution must not blur our vision as to the problems facing our nation. In Seven Statist Sins, Chris Hume demonstrates that, as well-intentioned as they might have been, our fathers were playing with humanist fire - a very real problem that the framers' cultural children (conservatives) continue to perpetuate. No, the remedies to our nation's sins are not to be found in the Enlightenment, or Philadelphia, or Rome, or Greece; they are found only in the Bible. This book is an appeal to an unshakable foundation: Christ, the Cornerstone, as the only true Author of the liberty of a nation. All else is sinking sand." Ron Kronz: "Chris Hume unapologetically takes on the socially acceptable idols of our day, even those embraced within the culture of Christianity. And he does not take counsel from the idolaters about how they would like their little gods to be treated. He takes the Bible and smashes them." Matt Kenitzer: "The church needs this book. We need to see the implications of what we've done and what is happening. The practicality of what has been written, as it stands on the Word of God, will be a valuable resource for generations to come for those who want to honor Christ in all of life." John Bingaman: "I can always count on Chris to follow through. In his book, Vote Christian, he makes his case without equivocating. In Essential Service he doesn't mince words about the wisdom of church shutdowns during government hysteria. In this latest work, Seven Statist Sins, Chris again leaves no doubt about where he stands regarding the civil government's so-called authority to do much of what it does. What's more, he leads his readers through Scripture to back up his contentions. This useful little book helps clarify the malaise many feel when trying to digest today's news. Too bad he stopped at seven."
