Rushdoony: the Biblical smorgasbord

Sunday, May 31, 2015
    Trinity Sunday
Meditation:
    They say to the seers, “See no more visions!” and to the prophets, “Give us no more visions of what is right! Tell us pleasant things, prophesy illusions. Leave this way, get off this path, and stop confronting us with the Holy One of Israel!”
    —Isaiah 30:10-11 (NIV)
Quotation:
    Theology belongs in the pulpit, the school, the work-place, the family, and everywhere. Society as a whole is weakened when theology is neglected. Without a systematic application of theology, too often people approach the Bible with a smorgasbord mentality, picking and choosing that which pleases them.
    ... Rousas J. Rushdoony (1916-2001), Systematic Theology, v. I, Ross House Books, 2003, v.1, p. xv (see the book)
