In the contemporary political sphere it is quite common to hear everyone talk about their rights. Since the Enlightenment era there has been a special focus placed on the concept of man’s rights. We see this taking form in the US Constitution which enumerates many of man’s rights that, in the authors’ perceptions, were inherent to all persons. So there is a right to free speech, a right to practice religion, etc. In the present day this has “evolved” to mean that we have a “right” to all kinds of things that are criminal and degenerate.
But the question we should ask ourselves is: What about God’s rights? Does the creator of the universe have any rights that His creatures are obliged to respect? When going about building a civilization, what should be placed at the foundation: God’s rights or our rights?
These are some of the questions we’ll explore on this blog.
