Mere Christendom - Douglas Wilson - Bog

"Francis Schaeffer once said that if there are no absolutes by which to judge society, then society becomes absolute. The last few decades have shown how prophetic he was. We are often warned by the media and even by Evangelical leaders that Christian nationalism and theocracy are grave dangers to our Christian witness, all while we get cancelled for explaining that boys are not girls and that we should not kill babies. In this short book, Douglas Wilson takes aim at the fundamental assumption of secularism: the idea that government can be morally and religiously neutral, extending tolerance to everyone and persecuting no one. Every nation has its religion, and the only question is whether we have a true religion that rewards the righteousness or a false one that punishes it. This book is not a call to reestablish state churches or to return to the problems of medieval Christendom. Instead, it is a call to get serious about the evils of our current secular society and it makes a scriptural case for publicly Christian governments and nations"--
