Luther against polygyny

[FollowingHim]

Thought I would share this wonderful read of the history of the Munster Rebellion from the great Murray N. Rothbard - https://mises.org/library/messianic-communism-protestant-reform

Now that is fascinating reading.

Time constraints limited my reading, but will get back to it soon enough.

Amazing how history repeats itself. The spirit of separation carried over into the various Baptist and Anabaptists movements into the US. The concept of separation of church and state came from these groups, and men like George Mason influenced Jefferson.

As a modern day separatist, I am very wary of reconstructionist types calling for statist/theocratic policies in the "name of Christ".

More on this topic another day....time constraints.

Just do your best to understand YHWH and what He wishes you to do today. You'll always be wrong in some areas, often because of subjectivism, because if you were perfectly right you'd have no further learning to do, and you'll be learning all your life. But He sees the heart. If you believe something to be sin, yet do it, it is sin for you even if you were actually wrong about it - likewise, sins in ignorance are less serious. So simply obey Him as best you understand Him today, and strive to understand Him even better tomorrow.

...and ask-pray for greater understanding, direction - and revelation or clearer revelation of His Will

Exactly, we keep learning with an honest and open heart. That requires daily prayer and choosing. Lukewarm is more dangerous than cold because we can get and stay self deceived. Lukewarm is like hell that leads to death. Attitude is huge

I’ve tried using this link, but apparently it’s too old. Does anyone know where this article can be found now?
