Los Fundamentos del Orden Social
Written by R.J. Rushdoony
Este en impresionante libro basado sobre estudios del autor realizados sobre los credos y concilios de la Iglesia Primitiva, Rushdoony dice que «El cristianismo no puede ser reducido al nivel de una religión misterio pagana, a la que básicamente solo le concierne la vida después de la muerte y aquí en esta vida las cosas personales.
Los fundamentos del orden social son, en efecto, en el aquí y ahora, pero también en la fe y la vida, y en lo que creemos con respecto a las cosas finales. En tanto que los hombres se han apartado del evangelio cristiano, han terminado construyendo un evangelio social y como han cambiado la ley de Dios por el antinomianismo, han suplantado a la ley-palabra de Dios y se han volcado a la palabra del hombre, al pietismo y a la verborrea piadosa.
La música de la Iglesia ahora a menudo celebra los sentimientos del hombre en lugar de celebrar a la Santísima Trinidad».
En este libro el autor afirma que el fundamento del verdadero orden social sólo puede ser en el Dios Trino y Su verdad y en la palabra escritural.
The Children Trap
Written by Robert Thoburn
Does the Bible have answers to the tough dilemmas that plague our nation’s schools?
The educational crisis in America has become so desperate that most “experts” agree we are “a nation at risk.” Academic standards are declining. SAT scores are declining. Teacher competency is declining. In fact, just about everything we do with our schools is declining . . .except the costs, the crime, the drug abuse and the immorality.
Tragically, most of the experts don’t have answers to these dilemmas.
But the Bible does.
In this volume of the groundbreaking Biblical Blueprints Series, Robert Thoburn outlines specifically what those answers are. He shows us just exactly what we can do to restore academic and moral excellence in our schools according to Scripture’s own plan.
The Bible tells us what to do: when, where, how, and why. It offers us a “blueprint” for educational reform. The Children Trap lays out that blueprint simply, practically, and understandably. It shows us how to reverse the decline and answer the dilemmas.

To make it simple, when God says “Widows’ – or any other weaker persons’ – lives, liberty, property, etc. matters,” you don’t dare talk back at Him with “All lives, liberty, property, etc. matters.” Because you talk back at Him like that, you are in trouble.

Chariots Of Prophetic Fire
Written by R.J. Rushdoony
There is a marked resemblance between our time and that of Elijah and Elisha. Theirs was a time of judgment; ours is as well. But there is a deeper resemblance. Their day was an age of syncretism, of radical compromise between the worship of the Lord and Baal worship. The two had been blended together to make one religion, so that a refusal to see the necessity for uncompromising religion marked Israel.
Israel rarely denied the Lord or professed open apostasy. Rather, it pursued a course of religious syncretism, using the name of the Lord but absorbing with their religion whatever faith was expedient for them. Thus, they were not open pagans, but pagans who practiced their unbelief under cover of the Lord’s name.
Syncretism is again our problem. Numerous forces, powers, and persons are accorded sovereignty over man. Today, Baal-worship is again prevalent in the name of the Lord. Humanistic statism is easily and readily submitted to by churchmen: children are placed in humanistic state schools, given into the hands of enemies of God, and people are only indignant if you condemn this practice. The major concern of most church members is not the Lord’s battles, nor the urgency to make a stand against compromise, but, “How can I best enjoy life?”
The similarity does not end there. Elijah and Elisha’s day was one of prosperity, a false prosperity that was largely the product of inflation. Our age, too, has been marked by an inflationary prosperity, and the loosening of moral and religious standards is one result. People want things, not qualities or virtues. This mindset demands more material wealth for men and diminishes the need for moral and educational performance and excellence. It is now a virtue to tolerate evil and to be intolerant of any material lack of man.
In Chariots of Prophetic Fire, R. J. Rushdoony challenges the Church of our day to resist compromise and the temptation of expediency, and realize that the power today does not lie in politics or governments but in God’s men of faith.

The Folly of the Modern Immigration Debate
The Folly of the Modern Immigration Debate
Written by
For most – if not all – defenders of immigration restrictions and control, the immigration restrictions are some abstract reality out there, and if “we just obey the law,” there would be no problems, and everything will be alright. What is always missed is that behind these abstract immigration laws they want to see enforced, there is an institutional arrangement, and that institutional arrangement is just as destructive to America as are the government schools. And certainly more destructive to America than any threat open borders could involve.
