“Our contest is not only whether we ourselves shall be free, but whether there shall be left to mankind an asylum on earth for civil and religious liberty.”
Samuel Adams
Here is a historical fact.
It is Calvinists more than any other expression of Christianity who have drawn the tightest connection between being spiritually free and insisting on being free in the civil realm. The Calvinists, throughout history, have reasoned that no man who has been spiritually set free from his sins should in any way live under tyrants who would seize the civil freedom of those spiritually set free.
You are no Calvinists if in this climate you are content to wear the chains of those tyrants who would take your civil liberty and enslave you again to the sins of some Christ-hating tyrant. And have no doubt, the squashing of our civil and religious liberty is exactly what this fake Wuhan narrative is all about. We are now being ruled by tyrants whose hatred for all those who would raise the banner of liberty is off the charts.
Given the docility of the modern Reformed Church in America one is forced to ask, “Are there any historical Calvinists left?”
Throughout history the last people that Sovereign Tyrants wanted in their Kingdoms were Calvinists. These Christ-hating tyrants would harry and harass Calvinists out of their Kingdom since the Potentates knew that Calvinists could not be broke to the chains the elite sought to place upon their subjects. Tyrants knew that their desire to enslave their people would never succeed if a strong Calvinist minority existed in their kingdom. Roman Catholics they could enslave. Lutherans they could enslave. Anabaptists they could enslave. But the Calvinists were a people that tyrants knew they would be broken if they sought to break their Calvinists to their bondage.
Doubt me?
Ask Mary Queen of Scots how well she did in breaking John Knox. Ask Catherine de Medici and the Duke of Guise how well they did putting the harness of oppression on Admiral Coligny and the Huguenots. Ask Charles I how well it went with enslaving Oliver Cromwell and the Roundheads. Ask the Roman Catholic Spaniards how well the Dutch Calvinists took to be enslaved. Ask the English Parliament and King George III how well it went trying to enslave the colonial Calvinists. Ask Abraham Lincoln and the Jacobin North about how easy it was to enslave the Calvinist South. Ask the English how easy it was for their Mighty Empire to put down the Boer Reformed in the Boer Wars.
Calvinists have always demanded their civil freedom and any denial of that demand led to either utter destruction for Tyrants or deep wounds inflicted on their Kingdoms as the price paid to crush Calvinists.
So, having said all this where are the Calvinists in America raising a hue and cry about our Governor Tyrants seeking to enslave us by this whole phony Wuhan narrative? Instead of raising Knox like battle cries modern Calvinists have become the biggest Tyrant arse kissers going (yes R2K, I’m looking at you… AGAIN).
What has happened to Calvinism that it has become so tame?
