Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a historical and theological exploration of religious liberty and its relationship to civil authority. By examining biblical texts and historical examples, the author analyzes the concept of "tares" within the context of both spiritual and earthly kingdoms. The book argues that while civil authorities have a duty to maintain order and punish civil crimes, the power to define and discipline religious beliefs lies solely with the Church. Through a nuanced discussion of biblical parables and historical figures, the author challenges the notion that civil authorities should enforce religious conformity. Instead, the book advocates for a peaceful coexistence between the Church and State, where each entity operates within its own sphere of influence. This separation, the author argues, allows for the flourishing of both religious freedom and civil peace. Ultimately, this book sheds light on the enduring tension between religious liberty and civil authority, offering valuable insights for navigating this complex issue in the present day.
