Foundations of Moral Government

Samuel Rutherford's Lex, Rex in Modern English with Commentary
  • Foreword by John Frame
  • By Michael A. Milton
$29.00
Product Description

Liberty isn't lost in a moment. It fades--quietly--when truth is forgotten.


In The Foundations of Moral Government, Michael A. Milton retrieves a burning coal from the altar of Christian political thought: Samuel Rutherford's Lex, Rex. Once banned and nearly buried, this seventeenth-century defense of liberty under God is here restored with clarity, care, and pastoral urgency.


This is not a book of nostalgia--it is a call to memory. Rutherford's cry, "The law is king," challenged tyrants and stirred the conscience of nations. Today, as cultures drift and governments swell, his voice echoes still. With theological depth and literary grace, Milton invites readers to rediscover the moral architecture that made freedom possible--and to rebuild what modernity has quietly dismantled.


More than commentary, this book is a plea for mercy and a prayer for renewal. It is for those who believe ideas still matter, that conscience must have a compass, and that the kingdoms of this world are not beyond the reach of the King of Kings.
