Justice is based on God’s written law, back through the New Testament to Moses; written Law; and the content and authority of that written Law is rooted back to Him who is the final reality. Thus, neither church nor state were equal to, let alone above, that Law. The base for law is not divided, and no one has the right to place anything, including king, state or church, above the contents of God’s Law.
– Francis A. Schaeffer, from A Christian Manifesto, 1981
