"For Groen van Prinsterer, the idea of neutrality is a myth. He writes in 1862 that:

'People apparently desire to neutralize the state, but in practice the state is surrendered to wholly non-neutral influences. If the Christian principle is not prevalent in our political life, then the anti-Christian principle will target everything that remains dear and sacred to our Christian nation.'

This also applies to education, and he considered the idea of a neutral education to be a practical impossibility. If children aren’t thoroughly provided with a Christian education, they will be indoctrinated by means of an anti-Christian one.

The education of a child in the ways of the Lord, Groen argues, 'might seem like an insignificant act in the eyes of the world,' but in doing so one instills in that child a 'faith that conquers the world [and] to conquer the world it is necessary to demolish every argument and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive in obedience to Christ'."

Our latest press statement:

"In addition to demanding that all governments cease implementing such mandates, the Pactum Institute calls upon all God-fearing lesser magistrates—governors, sheriffs, councilmen, representatives, community and family leaders and other office holders—to use their God-given authority to resist these diabolic measures from governments in those areas, spheres and realms where they legitimately govern."

"As ... the Reformed philosopher Gordon Clark observes, the traducian understanding of original sin is also taught by Christ in John 3:6, when Christ speaks of Nicodemus’s unregenerate soul as born of his parents. Clark notes that the Greek noun sarx (i.e. “flesh”) in relation to gennao (the Greek word for “birth”) clearly conveys this idea of a depraved soul in distinction from the corporeal body, which means that the propagation of the human species is not only corporeal, but spiritual and mental also."

Just a year ago, publishing an article defending familialism in an academic journal was unthinkable. But a year ago, the world hadn't yet been blessed with the Pactum Institute. In our latest research publication (published in the latest edition of the Journal for Christian Scholarship), dr. Schlebusch argues that

"the individualizing implications of the social contract inevitably leads to government tyranny since a society made up of
individuals, isolated from their natural and familial blood relations, is an ideal subject for government despotism. In this way, the social
ontology of the Enlightenment inevitably led to isolation from those natural familial relationships in which humans were designed to flourish as well as a consequent loss of true liberty In other
words, by virtue of its attempt to liberate the individual from the natural bonds established by blood and birth, it takes away the divinely-ordained creational structure in which humanity was designed to prosper and thrive, thereby enslaving it to the only authoritative social structure that remains, the state."

"The age to come in Christ has come and is now rolling back this present wicked age. The expectation is that this rolling back, while Spiritual in its most fundamental Kingdom expression, is a rolling back that is corporeal and tangible and so postmillennial at the same time. Real wicked men who are of their father the devil and who are chiefs in synagogues of Satan are brought down and God’s persecuted oppressed righteous are raised up." - Rev. Bret Mcatee (Research Fellow, Pactum Institute)

"Because Christ’s Lordship is universal, no aspect of human existence can remain neutral with regard to his rule. It is for this reason that Jesus noted in Mark 9:40 that 'he who is not against us, is for us.' It is for this reason that Scripture teaches us in I Corinthians 10:31 that 'whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.'

Every single thing that we think or do is either in opposition to or in service of Christ’s Kingdom." - Dr. Adi Schlebusch

The Southern Presbyterian theologian and philosopher Robert Lewis Dabney was undoubtedly one of the greatest intellectuals of all time.

"Disobedience to God’s Law amounts to disregarding Christ’s Lordship—something the saints of the Old Testament understood very clearly. After all, when the prophet Daniel refused to engage in idolatry, he expressly rooted his refusal in the divine Lordship of Jesus Christ." - Dr. Adi Schlebusch

"Few people realize that the New Testament actually emphasizes Christ’s Lordship just as much as His redemptive work with which it stands inseparably related. Luke 1:71-73 teaches that Jesus not only redeems his people from sin, but also from their enemies, so that we can serve Him without fear." - Dr. Adi Schlebusch

"It wasn’t therefore the fact that first-century Christians attended church, used the sacraments, read the Bible, did charity or sang hymns that the Roman authorities regarded as criminal. It was much rather the fact that they realized that the apostolic confession regarding the Lordship of Jesus Christ threatened their own political authority. If the apostles had simply spiritualized the gospel and proclaimed it to have no practical bearing upon the socio-political domain—they would never have been persecuted in the first place.

It was precisely the fact that both the Christians and Roman authorities of the first century realized that the resurrection of Christ has significant socio-political implications which led to the conflict between the two." - Dr. Adi Schlebusch

"In light of the Freedom Convoy’s resistance over the past few weeks the governments of Saskatchewan and Alberta are now ending vaccine mandates. The people are evidently not completely powerless in the face of government tyranny. These tremendous breakthroughs come even despite polls indicating that the majority of Canadians are still opposed to freedom. It just goes to show what a dedicated minority can achieve. As the theologian-philosopher R.J. Rushdoony once pointed out:

'no era of history has ever been governed by majorities, but only by dedicated minorities who have provided the direction to others'.”
