Today.

So, you know, it's not often you hear these terms, theocracy and libertarian welded together in the same philosophy.

But it would make sense.

It's coherent what you're saying.

If you think about the Jews at the time of, I don't know, the time of the New Testament, the first century.

Yeah, I mean, the code of law was effectively the Bible, the Old Testament.

And that was massively less invasive than the full gamut of local, state, and federal government today.

I have to go to a break in two minutes, but here's a question for you when you're talking about bringing these two things, the state and religion, faith, together again, bringing them back together.

The founding fathers were quite concerned about the possibility of state power to pollute the integrity of the Christian faith.

And that was the primary motive behind the concept of the separation of church and state.

It wasn't remotely what the secularists had in mind.

They wanted a Christian nation, but they didn't want the polluting political powers to corrupt the church as the Crown had done with the established Church of England.

Right, exactly.

Which is the case that you see today.

But tell me, if you're bringing these two forces together, how do you keep the integrity of the Christian faith from being polluted by politicians, by the state?

Just hold on, Pastor Wilson.

I'm going to come back to you in just two minutes to explore these themes further.

When inflation jumps, when you hear the national debt is over $38 trillion, as it is now, it's just increased by $1 trillion, do you ever think maybe now would be a good time to buy some gold?

Whether as a hedge against inflation, peace of mind during global instability, or just for sensible diversification, Birch Gold Group believes every American should own physical gold.
