For he is the minister of God to you for good. But if you do that which is evil, be afraid; for he bears not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath on him that does evil. Romans 13:4

One objective of MoscowID.net has been to demonstrate that Doug Wilson is a lawless man who gives no regard to man’s law or God’s and I believe that in the last eleven months we have established that he consistently defies Scripture and Idaho code. For example, we have shown that he brags about committing acts of high-profile theft; he deceives the public — regularly — (so does his denomination); he markets himself an expert on education while he edits fraudulent textbooks; he mocks justice; he bears false witness to the court to defend rapists & pedophiles; he sends rapists on missionary journeys; he persecutes the saints; he throws sheep to wolves and prays the wolf may devour more sheep; he affirms the essential necessity of rape for those who do not subscribe to his worldview; he is a racist, a misogynist, a totalitarian, a jackass, and a hypocrite. And not being facetious, we have barely scratched the surface. Pastor Douglas Wilson of Christ Church, Moscow, embodies every essential attribute of the beast described in Scripture as well as antichrist, but his single-most defining trait is his lawlessness. He recognizes no authority over him — including his own written standards. He exudes lawlessness. It animates him from head to toe. And for one more example to illustrate this point, consider that Natalie Greenfield had to petition the state for relief when Doug Wilson tried blackmailing her into silence by threatening to publish her childhood diaries, in violation of state law and a court order, which Mr. Wilson knew existed. The state of Idaho had to protect Natalie from the tender mercies her former pastor, who is wicked (Prov. 12:10).

According to Scripture, God has ordained the civil magistrate to protect society, and our local police & sheriff’s departments represent the magistrate’s teeth. These brave men & women are the lone wall of defense between lawful order and anarchy. Without them, our society would disintegrate into chaos in moments. If the court did not have an armed wing in the police to enforce its decrees, men such as Doug Wilson would run wild. And yes, some cops are dirty. No doubt about. Consider, for example, Michael Slager, who murdered a man while on duty and then planted his Taser near the body of his victim to frame him. If Doug Wilson was a cop, he would be Michael Slager. Unfortunately, Slager is not eligible for the death penalty, which is too bad. His violation of the public trust is simply unconscionable. So, yes, some cops are corrupt — but not all. Not even close. Indeed, call me naïve but I wave to the police when I see cruisers on the road. I count them my friends.

Consider the Dallas Police Department. On July 7, five heroic officers from the Dallas Police Department charged a sniper to protect their fellow citizens from harm, and in a cruel stroke of irony those citizens were exercising their First Amendment right to protest against police brutality. When I saw these men sacrifice their lives, the thought of blogging about Moscow sewage rubbed me the wrong way. So I decided to stay offline until all five officers were laid to rest.

On Sunday, July 17, I had a post in the queue and we planned to resume blogging — but then three peace officers in Baton Rouge were shot to death, while on duty, in response to a call. As with Dallas, a lone assassin ambushed them in retaliation for perceived police brutality, and as with Dallas, I resolved to stay offline until these heroes were buried. Yesterday, the last of the three, Baton Rouge Police Officer Montrell Jackson (bottom right), was laid to rest.

So I apologize to those who have contacted me. I needed downtime and disabled everything. I also ask readers to indulge me as I veer slightly off point for tonight and perhaps tomorrow, to tie up some loose ends that emerged with these awful shootings. After that, we can zip up our hazmat suits and jump back into the cesspool of Christ Church, Moscow, where one day soon I pray God’s deacon arrests that lawless animal who uses the Christian ministry as cover for his criminal activity.
