FWIW,

It's a leap to say that God's laws for *personal* holiness should also be the laws for the *state's* holiness.

One reason is that you'd have to say that the *state* should enfource laws against (say) coveting.

So, you'll not get to "theonomy" from his specific claims here on personal sanctification.
