When Should Christians Resist Government?

Interesting piece by Al Croncrite today.

REBELLION AND WORLD GOVERNMENT... SHOULD WE RESIST?

Tyranny is a product of rebellion against God. Man was not created to govern himself and, as outlandish as that statement might seem to the intellectual humanists of our day, it is about to become glaringly apparent in the United States. Before the construction of our Constitution most, if not all, of the individual states codified a Christian litmus test for every political candidate. Unfortunately, our Constitution dispensed with that requirement instead mandating freedom of religion. This seemingly magnanimous gesture set the stage for the secular tyranny we must now endure. Reverend R. J. Rushdoony wrote “there can be no tolerance for the law-system of another religion. Toleration is a device used to introduce a new law-system as a prelude to a new intolerance...” Christians in the United States are beginning to feel that “new intolerance” in a big way.

That article was all over the place. A screed.

What is he advocating exactly?
