In a crisis situation, like Hurricane Katrina for example, or a famine, or pestilence, what would the magistrates role be? How is he to care for his citizens and provide for their welfare, based upon biblical principles?
If I may speak frankly, in another Katrina situation the best thing for the magistrate to do is to stay the h*ll out of the way. The govt compounded the problem exponentially.
