The Old Testament Law was unequal. It typically commanded voluntary socialism. We must not put our American pragmatism into the Old Testament text. For the church to be an invisible player in the downfall of society would represent God a noble mystical spirit in the sky. God created real material objects and historical observant authority. Every evil represents not the spirit of Satan that causes suffering.It is corrupt men who redefine Gods government established by law. God judges evil by, every grand scheme devised in the wicked heart of man.It is not a moral universe of two opposing truths that cannot be reconciled. Immorality is the misuse of the law. Real leaders who exercise abusive authority over the powerless. It is not mediated by the willingness to gifts or withhold. Personal morality is judged if the law establishes righteousness or injustice. I don't follow a religious leader merely describes the law as if he remains a financial adviser. The leader is not a financial adviser but an relentless advocate. He is responsible to carefully make moral judgements on redefined law.
