Actually, a THEOCRATIC representative republic is best, and that is what every true Christian should be working toward.
"The kingdoms is of this world are now the kingdom of our Lord and Christ" - Revelation 11:15.
"Jesus Christ, the ruler of of the kings of the earth" - Rev. 1:5
"Now therefore, O kings, be wise; be warned, O rulers of the earth.
Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
for his wrath is quickly kindled. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
- Psalm 2:10-12
Of course, I am quite confident that Hatch, Noll, or Marsden would never dream of considering such a thing as the Lordship of Christ in THAT regard.
