Jesus replied, No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.
Well yes. You cannot run on your laurels in Christian faith. Rear view steering is a huge fail. You have to keep your heading at Christ. But how does this relate to wise ways to run a government. I believe history has shown that the Constantine model won’t work. Jesus Himself personally physically present is needed to make a “Christian” government do anything like the right thing. Otherwise it will soon decay into men’s intrigues.
Well, ancient Israel and Judah always had prophets advising them. If the government ignored the prophet, they walked right into disaster; if they heeded the prophet, they returned to prosperity and security.
So, what was the point of Christ’s first coming?
