Max Kappeler, Christian Government—Its Scientific Evolution
SYNOPSIS: As we enter the 21st century, mankind is alive with the question: What constitutes the true government of man? Max Kappeler, in his book Christian Government (p. 10), states:
"Democracy will certainly fail unless democracy patterns theocracy. In order to gain a purer sense of democracy, we must first gain a scientific understanding of theocracy—the government of God, the reign of divine Science."
Joel Jessen presents an in-depth discussion of man's birthright to be governed by God, divine Principle. Divine government is based on divine laws, rights, duties, and divine justice.
