A Biblical Parable Illuminates Today’s No Kings Protests
Historical accounts of the Crucifixion reveal a tragic betrayal when religious leaders rejected their true King for the secular authority of Caesar. Settling for a pagan ruler who lacked respect for sacred traditions ultimately led to the destruction of their own institutions and heritage.
By prioritizing temporal power over eternal truth, these leaders embraced a deceptive order that eventually dispersed their people. This cycle repeats whenever citizens look to fallible, ordinary men for the salvation that only a divine sovereign can provide.
Liberty Check
- Secular authorities often demand the total allegiance that belongs only to our Creator.
- The rule of law is subverted when political leaders act like monarchs above the Constitution.
- Moral failings are frequently glorified by those who seek power over constitutional principles.
The modern Left often demands the same kind of absolute monarch the ancient priests sought—one who favors their agenda while ignoring legal constraints. True liberty is only preserved when we recognize that no earthly executive possesses the final authority over the human soul.
“Shall I crucify your King?”
“The chief priests answered, ‘We have no king but Caesar.’”
History proves that every dictator and temporary lord fades away, while the principles of divine law remain steadfast. We must remain vigilant against any movement that seeks to replace our constitutional order with the whims of a secular elite.
The Constitution must be defended.
