Description
The Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrates: A Proper Resistance to Tyranny and a Repudiation of Unlimited Obedience to Civil Government In times of turmoil, it is essential to understand the principles of resistance to tyranny. This book provides a hopeful blueprint for freedom, drawing on history and the Word of God. Pastor Matthew Trewhella explores the doctrine of the lesser magistrates, a historic tool that offers proven guidelines for legitimate resistance to unjust or immoral laws. The doctrine, practiced by Christian men throughout Western Civilization, teaches that when a superior authority makes an unjust law, the lower authority has the right and duty to refuse obedience. This book examines the doctrine's application in modern times, providing a framework for Americans to resist the Federal government's attempts to trample their Constitution and liberty. By understanding the doctrine of the lesser magistrates, readers can learn how to rein in lawless acts by government and restore justice in their nation.
