The popular attitude of our generation -- both outside and inside the Christian church (which is a commentary in itself) -- is that the civil laws of the Mosaic revelation are outlandish, out-dated, and surely not morally acceptable for modern states. Those who, like "theonomists," do not repudiate the moral validity and use of the Mosaic judicial laws in contemporary political affairs have scorn heaped upon them as anachronistic fools or dangerous tyrants. Today even theologians who claim to be "Reformed" widely ridicule or emphatically reject the theonomic endorsement of the validity of Old Testament civil laws.[1]
