Let Men Be Free: A Christian Vision for Ordered Liberty
In Let Men Be Free, Brandon James Crawford advocates for a system of biblically-ordered liberty, balancing public order and personal freedom as prescribed by Scripture. He challenges both secularism and theocratic extremes, proposing a governance model where a free church fulfills its biblical mandate to make disciples, while a free state secures the rights of all citizens. Crawford outlines Christ’s Universal Kingdom, the historical relationship between God's people and governance, and the biblical basis for human rights. He concludes with the vision of Christ’s ultimate reign, calling readers to thoughtful engagement in the intersection of faith and politics.
