Taxation

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/12

Taxation is not morally neutral. From David’s census to modern tax policy, Scripture and history warn that the power to tax can become the power to destroy liberty. When taxation moves beyond justice and becomes a tool to confiscate property or reshape society, it crosses into theft something God plainly forbids (Exod. 20:15). The answer, however, is not revolt but repentance. Bad government reflects bad morality. Real change begins with the people, returning to faith and righteousness only

The Pure in Heart

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/11

The sixth Beatitude, “Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God,” confronts us with an apparent impossibility, since Scripture makes clear that the human heart is naturally corrupt and incapable of purifying itself; yet Christ does not mock us with an unattainable promise, but offers what He Himself gives. Purity of heart is not achieved by moral effort or self-discipline, for no man can change his own nature, but is granted by God when He gives a new heart through Jesus Christ. The

Honest Work

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/11

Paul is clear: Christians must learn to practice honest work so that they are not unfruitful or idle (Titus 3:14). The church cared for the truly needy, but it never excused refusal to work. Responsibility and diligence are marks of faith lived out. Work matters to God. Honest labor honors Him; dishonest or idle living offends Him. Christians are called to be workers whose lives give credit to Christ and His church. The question is personal: does your work honor God or offend Him?

The Second Commandment (Remastered)

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/11

You can carve an idol out of your hopes. God sets the terms of approach not you. When man designs the way to God, he ends up dictating the morality too. That's Hinduism. That's humanism. That's every parent "just praying" instead of applying godly discipline. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. Stubbornness is idolatry. The only lawful approach is Christ, who kept every jot and tittle of the Law-Word.

Easy Chair No. 165, March 10, 1988 - Pragmatism

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/10

Rushdoony and Scott examine pragmatism, the American form of existentialism, which defines truth by what “works” rather than by God or eternal standards. Pragmatism dominates education, politics, business, law, and even religion, leading to consumer-oriented, self-centered thinking, situation ethics, and the erosion of merit, permanence, and moral restraint. It fosters a society focused on immediate gain, social conformity, and personal advantage, while undermining truth, craftsmanship, and

The False Focus

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/10

When church life becomes about managing people, filling pews, or meeting personal expectations, something vital is lost. Worship turns into pressure, and faith shifts from honoring God to fixing others. That false focus makes it harder not easier to come before the Lord. Christ’s church exists first for God’s Kingdom and His righteousness (Matt. 6:33). When faith is reduced to “what it does for me,” the center moves from God to man. The question that exposes everything remains: What is

The Recovery of Memory

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/10

Rushdoony argues that memory personal and cultural is essential to being fully human: when memory collapses (as in senility), a person can remain socially polished yet be stripped of identity, continuity, and direction. He extends that to cultures: history is “social memory,” and when a society becomes present-obsessed and contemptuous of the past, it heads toward cultural senility barbarism because “people who have no past have no future.” He warns that modern humanistic education and media

Restitution

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/09

In “Restitution,” Rushdoony argues that restitution stands at the very heart of Biblical justice, grounding both God’s law and Christ’s atoning work in the principle that wrongs must be made right. Scripture consistently requires offenders to restore what was taken often multiple times over so that crime does not pay, a standard fulfilled perfectly in Christ’s obedience and sacrificial death as restitution before God for His people. Where restitution governs, justice is stable and meaningful;

Man's Sole Purpose

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/09

When civilizations lose hope, they fall back on the same lie: “Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die.” It’s an ancient slogan of despair, echoing from Babylon to Rome and still heard today. It reduces life to pleasure because it expects nothing beyond death. Paul answers with truth: Christ is risen, victory is real, and our labor is not in vain (1 Cor. 15:57–58). Man was not made for death, but for eternal life. Our purpose is to serve and glorify God and to enjoy Him forever.

Promoted, Then Nearly Killed: The Biblical Cost of...

2026/10/09

At seventeen, Joseph was given the robe of rule, and before he opened his mouth his brothers said, "Let us slay him." Jacob was not playing favourites: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah had broken the commandments one by one, and no father building an inheritance for his children's children could hand it to the wicked. But the robe was never just a gift. It was a burden Joseph could not take off, the cost of ruling among men who hate you, and it is the pattern of Christ, who rules in the midst of

2026/10/08

This talk argues we need a “map” to understand philosophy: the ancient world didn’t start with God at the top it started with the state as the “highest good,” treated truth as a tool of rulers (even the “right” to lie), and saw reality as one continuous chain where men could become “divine.” That worldview swings between totalitarianism (the One) and anarchism (the Many). The Christian breakthrough, he says, was the Trinity one God, three Persons giving a foundation for unity without tyranny

Blessed are the Merciful

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/08

The fifth Beatitude, “Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy,” teaches that true mercy is neither sentimental softness nor indulgence toward evil, but a grace born out of personal repentance and forgiveness. Mercy is not forgiving wrongs done to others something that costs us nothing nor is it a denial of justice or a blurring of the distinction between good and evil; rather, it is the costly act of forgiving those who have wronged us, returning good for evil, and extending to

Whom the Lord Loveth

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/08

Scripture teaches that God’s discipline is not cruelty but care. The Hebrew paquadh means both “to visit” and “to chasten” to punish and to care. Like a kite, we only rise when there is restraint. Without it, we crash. Our age confuses freedom with the absence of limits, but true freedom is found in obedience. “Whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth” (Heb. 12:6). God’s restraints are not bondage they are love in action, guiding us to soar rather than fall.

Pruning

Jesus reminds us that fruitful branches are pruned not punished so they may bear more fruit (John 15:2). Discipline is not a sign of rejection, but of love. Undisciplined growth weakens; pruning strengthens. God knows where we need correction and growth. His pruning is purposeful, gracious, and necessary. Submit to His hand, and the result will be greater fruitfulness not loss.

Injustice in the Name of Justice

2026/10/07

In “Injustice in the Name of Justice,” Rushdoony contends that modern society loudly proclaims justice while systematically denying its very foundation by rejecting God as Lawgiver, leaving justice as a hollow façade for humanistic power. When the state identifies its own will with justice, legality replaces morality, and coercion forced abortions, suppression of religious speech, and state control of the church is justified as righteousness. Rushdoony warns that many churches aid this

Who Are the Debtors of America?

In America, the poor carry the least debt because they are generally considered bad credit risks, the middle class holds moderate debt primarily for homes, farms, and small businesses, while the rich borrow most easily and carry the highest proportion of personal debt; corporations are actually the largest debtors outside the government, funding expansions, acquisitions, and operations, and on top of this, the enormous debts of cities, states, and the federal government create a system of

The Implications of Modern Philosophy: The Will To...

CR101 Radio - Podcast Network ·

2026/10/06

Rushdoony argues that when modern philosophy narrows reality to inner experience excluding God and “things-in-themselves” it produces a “will to fiction” that reshapes art, literature, politics, and daily life: earlier figures like Rubens still worked as disciplined, reality-tethered artisans and businessmen, but modern “artists” increasingly treat imagination as truth and self-mythologize, illustrated by Thoreau’s largely staged Walden, Whitman’s carefully constructed “common man” persona

The Truth and the Lie

2026/10/06

Jesus declared, “I am the truth” (John 14:6). To know Him is to live in reality, not imagination or compromise. There is no middle ground between truth and lies neutrality itself becomes a lie. Truth often demands sacrifice; lies promise advantage. But the real cost of a lie is what it does to the one who lives by it. To follow Christ is to choose truth, whatever the price and to reject the lie, however tempting.

The Dream of Reason

This position paper argues that the Enlightenment’s exaltation of human reason has produced a recurring and destructive dream: the creation of a perfectly rational, planned society ruled by philosopher-kings, with the Turkish Empire presented as an early and revealing model of this ideal. Admired by Western romantics and humanists for its supposed order and rationality, the Ottoman system subordinated all people rulers and subjects alike to the state, treating human life as expendable in

Few topics generate more heat and less light than the question of women's roles in the church and family — but what does Scripture actually say when freed from both feminist ideology and culturally accumulated assumptions?
