"The petition of 'come quickly Lord Jesus' is not a plea that the petitioner may be removed from history; it is a militant expression of the hope that God will avenge even today. For John the final and visible return of Christ in power and judgment is far from an unprecedented event but rather it is the final, ultimate, and physical climax to a series of divine comings that are a trademark of Christ’s kingdom of power."
- Robert Hoyle, Pactum research associate

The manuscripts for both our books for this academic year have been completed. The publishers are working hard on finalizing the covers and prefaces are being written as we speak.

Both Rev McAtee's polemic work against R2K as well as the first-ever English translation of Bavinck's Christian Philosophy of Science will, God willing, be released early in 2023.

"What we need is a social order based not in the sovereignty of the state and not in the individual, but in divinely-ordained socio-covenantal units. What we need is subsidiarity in the spirit of the judicial reform brought about by Moses and Jethro in Exodus 18—where the socio-political order is restructured with 'rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens' (verse 21). It is only through a harmonious interplay between all of the basic units of that social order that the groundwork can be laid for the formation of a truly Christian state—a state that is not propositional, but the reflection of an organically developed national life rooted in a covenantal family, clan and community life."

"Yes, the modern world is a mess. But to ruin yourself in an overeager 'last stand' form of combat will only accomplish the extinguishing of your won soul. Flee from bitterness. Cultivate the courage to walk against the grain. Do not neglect a balanced diet and a good night’s rest. Arm the children you do have with skill."

- Pactum researcher Robert Hoyle's timely warning against reactionary pitfalls, especially when it comes to cultivating the agrarian life.
"And indeed, truth be told, Scott’s god is Enlightenment pluralism and Scott is doing his damnedest to make sure his god reigns. Of course this clearly communicates that Scott’s Christ and my Christ are different Christs." - Pactum Institute research fellow, Bret McAtee

Like some of Pactum's own researchers, our friend and ally in the fight for Christ's kingdom, Thomas Achord, has now also become a victim of the Leftist Inquisition. Imprecatory prayers against God's enemies are in order.
Read his story here: https://medium.com/@thomasachord/my-story-43e8238dbfdd


A fundraiser has been set up to help his family. The Pactum Institute would like to encourage anyone able to help out the Achord family in their time of need to do so, thereby glorifying God by supporting a worthy cause:

In a post on our social media pages last week, we encouraged anyone able to support Thomas Achord financially to do so. We did so based on his initial testimony. However, it has just come to our attention that mr Achord has now released a second statement which contradicts his first. For the sake of transparency, we want to encourage anyone considering a donation to the Achord family to read this final statement as well.

"So today, when we celebrate the Feast of St Nicholas, let us not only be of good cheer, but may we feast upon meals which are good for maintaining high testosterone levels. And as we gather in our families to feast this evening, may we not neglect to propose a toast to the great St Nicholas."

"What is needed is a strengthening and consolidating of man’s mind unto true religion. This will only come about via ardent pursuit of the truth. Of all the sciences, theology deals with truth in its most pure form. It is time that it reclaimed its title as queen of the sciences. It must do this unflinchingly; not disguising itself as offering worldly benefits to its disciples. The truth is worthy to be sought by its own merit."

- Robert Hoyle (research associate)
