This week we interviewed Matt Trewhella, a pastor from Wisconsin that is a well-known proponent of the Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate. Here are some recommended links for further study: LesserMagistrate.com or DefyTyrants.com Mercy Seat Christian Church (262) 628-9169 Macabre Magdeburg Confession Appellation to the Nobles of Scotland by John Knox Resistance to Tyrants: Romans 13 and the Christian Duty to Oppose Wicked Rulers by Gordon Runyan Establishment and Limits of Civil Government by James M Wilson Scripture examples: Jeremiah 36 (nobles intervened on behalf of Jeremiah) Daniel 3 (3 Hebrew children) What can you do now? Contact your lesser magistrates! Write to them. Keep it short, make your point, don’t go over 1 page. You could even meet with your local officials! “We need to urge our local officials to honor God, and support them in that endeavor.”
