Pro Rege means "for the King" (in Latin). The object of this blog is to proclaim political, educational, economic, and historical principles in the light of God the King's Word. My hope is that readers will be educated and edified with a biblical worldview of various subjects.
My name is Matt, plain and simple, and I encourage you to post your comments as you wish. Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I can't. I just ask you to make your thoughts known in a thoughtful way without swearing or personal attacks. If you do start doing this, it will be a sign that you cannot articulate your thoughts in a logical way, since you are attacking the arguer, not the argument. This is also known as the ad hominem error.
The name Althusius comes from a Calvinist political thinker who was born in Germany in 1557. He was instrumental in formulating Calvinist political thought, in particular, sphere sovereignty. This is the idea that each branch (sphere) of human life--family, church, and government--is independent of the others and has its own jurisdiction. The church should not control the state; the state should not control the church, etc. He also advanced the view, as did Calvin, that when a ruler goes against the law of his country or the law of God, all his commands are void.
Above all, I encourage you to spread knowledge with those around you.
And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the , that in all things He may have the preeminence.
(Collossians 1:18, NKJV,)

Thanks, Sloaneus. Sorry for indirectly breaking up what I'm sure was a very serious conversation.
