Say anything you like but he's right. If I could get to Charlie Chow I would have no problem putting him down then dealing with the repercussions. Lex Talonis baby 😘

The best political theology, Baptist and otherwise, recognizes a sharp distinction between the two modes of Christ's kingdom, though they are related. 1. Kingdom of the World. Christ's whole moral and natural law restrains wickedness and directly promotes temporal (not eternal) societal good and flourishing. Governments should ensure that Christian churches are free to practice the first table of the law (religious liberty) and should enforce lex talonis (eye for an eye) with respect to the second table of the law. The instrument given to the civil government is the sword, physical violence and coercion. It is not the responsibility of governments to determine orthodoxy or to legally incentivize church attendance. When God gives common grace to a nation, the kingdom of the world serves as a stable platform for the church. In this sense, the kingdom of the world can indirectly promote eternal good. When God judges a nation, however, it often persecutes the church, and God uses that persecution for her purification. The condition of a nation cannot hinder or advance Christ's redemptive kingdom because Christ will build His church through effectual calling, regardless. 2. Kingdom of Redemption. Christ's new covenant people are given the instrument of the Word of God to preach the law and the gospel for the conversion of the elect and the building up of Christ's churches for their eternal and heavenly good. The church defends orthodoxy by the sword of truth. Christ's churches are not built through coercion but freely by conversion. Orthodoxy is not maintained through coercion but by the persuasion of the Holy Spirit.

And forcing someone to endure the crime they commited is the closest you could come to "justice" (if we follow a 'lex talonis' way of thinking, instead of modern understanding of justice)

Blood debts do not imply lex talonis, just that there needs to be satisfactory resolution. Colin here is trying to play the "fellow victim who moved on" role, the effect of which is negated by his current alignment with the perpetrators. It honestly just adds to the fire.

Some of the Old Testament law is helpful here. Exodus 21 mentions that a wife who is even neglected- not given proper food, clothing, and marital rights- may be released from the marriage. And this is for a slave wife, who has fewer rights in ANE culture than a free woman. Since the OT laws are case law, we're able to take that as a benchmark to reason that under the Torah, spousal abuse was definitely grounds for divorce (as well as for Lex Talonis, which is covered elsewhere). Now obviously we have to read that in light of what Jesus says in Matthew 19- but Jesus' statement there does not render the OT Law any less the inspired Word of God; we're still allowed to use it to reason out the principles that God cares about- and those laws clearly show that God very much is concerned for women in abusive marriages. How to reconcile these, then? An abusive spouse is at absolute minimum immediately placed under Church discipline and subject to any applicable legal action. Depending on the circumstances, if they repentant, the marriage should be reconciled; but if it is clear that the behavior will continue, I do not think that the same God who taught with regards to Sabbath-breaking that "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath" will begrudge a divorce under these circumstances.

This is what modern fail to understand about lex talonis. Weight for weight, blind and in balance.

The Law is a lot more Lex Talonis than anything in the New Testament and has zero time for abominations.

Si vieron mi corto del capitulo sabrán que cuando aun eran legionarios de ultramarines lograron quitarle una de las naves clase gloriana a los portadores de la palabra, la purificaron y ahora es su nave insignia renombrándola como la lex talonis

Collateral damage Dana. Civilians are unfortunately a consequence of a conflict, as your government keeps telling us. Unfortunate but unavoidable. As Israel is administering punishment lex talonis, get back to us when Hamas and Hez are dropping 2000 on Israel with impunity.

@julie_kelly2 @TomFitton @barnes_law @America1stLegal @JP_Hustle1776 This is why the average American has complete and utter contempt for the Bar and the “justice” system in this country ! Corrupt judges, corrupt prosecutors, corrupt clerks…it never ends! Sir Edward Coke said “Law was the safest shield” but know he is turning in his grave! If the Rule of Law falls from internal corruption then Lex Talonis will rule!

This is just one example of how fluid these cases are (everywhere but just highlighting J6 case in DC) to demonstrate the highly unusual nature of Smith's requests related to Trump's trial. Chutkan delayed a trial that was already set in order to clear her docket for the Trump case. After she had to vacate Trump's trial, suddenly everyone was available again and Nester's trial moved UP from August 2024 to March 2024. The gamesmanship surrounding the effort to get Trump on trial as fast as possible is a wide-ranging effort that involves Jack Smith, Tanya Chutkan, Matthew Graves, and Dem judges on DC appellate court. It is now up to SCOTUS to stop this madness.

Why is that worse than the IDF killing thousands of civilians with bombs? Those who embark on mass murder should not be surprised when relatives of the dead resort to lex talonis.
