6.新教必须团结起来对抗世俗政府,否则基督教将灭绝,人类也将毁灭。
而当新教诞生、产生多个新教派之后,上帝的精神之剑也随之旁落了,每个教派都认为自己拥有它,但是在一盘散沙状态中,实际上谁也没有真正拥有它,精神之剑已经失去了原来的威力,无法对国家形成制约,于是国家不断的侵蚀的原本属于教会的权利,成为了一头失去控制的利维坦怪兽。
婚姻原本是基督教世界的圣事,神圣、庄严。因为上帝说男人离开父母后,将与女人结为一体,互相忠诚、永不分离。在教堂中牧师问男方你愿意娶她为妻吗?问女方你愿意嫁给他为妻吗?那是在上帝见证下的承诺与发誓,是无比的圣洁与神圣。一夫一妻、一男一女是上帝赐予人类爱情的结果,人类也以汗牛充栋的诗篇描写爱情的甜蜜、芬芳,婚姻就是这些甜蜜、芬芳爱情的结果,一男一女、一夫一妻的婚姻也是对爱情的讴歌,对忠诚的赞美。一男一女、一夫一妻的婚姻也是人类延续的必需,在爱的港湾中新一代幸福成长。一男一女、一夫一妻的婚姻也是社会稳定的要求,与一夫多妻、三妻四妾相比,它是最稳定的家庭结构。人类历史上重未有定义婚姻的法律,婚姻原本就是宗教领域的事,原本就是教会管辖的范围,一男一女、一夫一妻婚姻的圣洁神圣,同样是基督教世界独有的现象。非基督教世界认可的婚姻不只是一夫一妻,他们同样认可一夫四妻,或者三妻四妾的婚姻,及至嫔妃无数在他们眼里也认为是正常的。但是基督教世界神圣庄严的圣事,今天已经被联邦最高法院的五名法官轻易推翻,这五位法官取代圣经,重新定义了婚姻,他们将婚姻扩展到同性,轻易推翻上帝的话语。这是对宗教自由何等的践踏,这是对基督徒何等的污辱,对圣经何等的蔑视,可是整个美国新教会平时纷争不止、喋喋不休,此时却鸦雀无声、默然接受,可知美国社会的非基督教化、世俗化已经到了何等地步,教会已经萎缩弱化到何等程度,上帝精神之剑已经完全旁落,基督教会在美国政府面前已经毫无还手之力。

After the birth of Protestantism and the emergence of many new sects, the spiritual sword of God also dropped off. Each sect believed that they owned it, but no one really owned it in a status of disunity. The spiritual sword had lost its initial power and could not restrict the state. Hence, the state constantly eroded the rights originally belonging to the church and became a leviathan monster out of control.
Marriage was originally a sacrament in the Christian world, sacred and solemn because God says that after a man leaves his parents, he will bind with a woman, be loyal to each other, and never separate. In church, the pastor asked the man if he would marry a woman as his wife? Ask the woman if you would marry him as her husband? It’s a promise and oath under the witness of God. It’s incomparably hallowed and holy. Monogamy, one man and one woman, is the result of love given by God to humans. Humans also describe the sweetness and fragrance of love with voluminous poems. Marriage is the result of this sweet and fragrant love. The marriage of a man and a woman and monogamy is also the adoring of love and the glorifying of loyalty. A man and a woman, monogamous marriage is also necessary for the continuation of humans; in the harbor of love, the new generation grows up happily. A man and a woman, monogamous marriage is also the requirement of social stability. It is the most stable family structure compared with polygamy, with three wives and four concubines. There is no law to define marriage in human history. Marriage is originally a matter of religion and within the church’s jurisdiction. The sanctity of monogamous marriage is also a unique phenomenon in the Christian world. The marriage recognized by the non-Christian world is not only monogamy; they also recognize the marriage of a man having four wives or three wives and four concubines, and even countless concubines, which is normal in their eyes. However, the sacred and solemn sacraments in the Christian world have been easily overturned by five judges of the Federal Supreme Court of America today. These five judges replaced the Bible and redefined marriage. They extended marriage to homosexuality and easily reversed the word of God. What a trample on religious freedom! What an insult to Christians! And what contempt for the Bible! Although the Protestant church in the United States always quarreled and squabbled, at this time, they were as still as a mouse without a word and accepted mutely. We can see how far the American society has secularized and how far the church has shrunk. God’s spirit sword has been completely abandoned, and the Christian Church is powerless to fight back against the American government.
