A Christian Manifesto
Looking at the creeping erosion of morality and justice in the western world, Francis Schaeffer calls for Christians to change the course of history by returning to biblical truth and by allowing Christ to be Lord in all of life.
"A Christian Manifesto is literally a call for Christians to change the course of history--by returning to biblical Truth and by allowing Christ to be Lord in all of life. To do this, Schaeffer says, will involve a head-on confrontation with the false view that material or energy shaped by chance, is the final reality.
Schaeffer's provocative conclusion is that when the state directly defies the absolute law of God, its authority becomes illegitimate. In this case, the Christian is bound to resist the state by whatever means necessary--through direct legal and political action, and possibly through massive demonstrations of civil disobedience.
