However, to the contrary, in ancient Biblical times, if a person continued in an obvious sin he was righteously taken out of society (Dt. 21:18-21). Then society would be left to manage its own problems without the hindrance and liability of those enjoying and practicing sin. By administering in this way--in reverence of God, they escaped the pending judgment (execution of vengeance) of God on the entire people. Beware: "Purge out therefore the old leaven" (I Cor. 5:7). This righteous isolation principle (disciplinary segregation) was also harmlessly established in the early church through disassociation.
Notwithstanding, since our government has drifted further from Biblical influence, it has diluted, if not done away and reversed beneficial, salutary and constructive social correction. Civil authority no longer has the sensitivity to discipline society righteously. Criminals who repeat their crimes are set free time after time. You do not even hear of anyone being indicted for adultery anymore--they condone and legalize it now! Furthermore, on the other hand, the courts have turned to pacify the cries and nourish the desires of the rebellious and subversive, advancing an illegitimate overthrow of the nation. It has gotten so bad that it has gone to the other extreme; fickle government, without justifiable intent, has forced children to attend schools in areas they do not wish to go to--legalistic and unrighteous, enforced non-segregation is imposed to meet the self-serving demands of the minorities. This defeats and opposes the desires and longing of the heirs, and further desovereignizes the nation. (When I mention "heirs," I am referring to the descendants of the French and English, who conquered and established this country.)
Other forms of false religion promulgated through rebellious civil law reform have been planted through an adverse response. Some commendable forms of cultural and racial segregation have been reversed or opposed, and impious, whimsical, legalistic--repelling grace, reasonableness and social fidelity--laws have been imposed so as to embezzle the rights of the heir and favor the anti-heir or non-heir (the minorities or non-Anglo Saxons). Civil law should not protrude beyond its limits so as to extort the natural and cultural existence rights and inheritance of the heirs.
For instruction and guidance in this area of philosophy (segregation) we need true and pure, divine authority: The Old Testament gives us guidelines (I Tim. 1:8-11). Marital segregation was instituted among the tribes within the race of Israel (Nu. 36:5-13). (In order to understand what is Biblically acceptable concerning the close relative law of marriage, you must realize that God's commandments were given in dispensations. From the beginning, Adam and Eve were the progenitors of the whole earth. Thus, hypothetically, through regeneration, the earth could not have been filled with people without one of their sons having sex with one of their daughters. The close relative law was not in effect at that time. Even later on, as the world passed, what was once permitted in Jacob's time was incriminated in Lv. 18:18. As time continued, God's laws were increased and written. Eventually and finally, the New Testament books were written. So, even with a brief recalling, the marriage between cousins may seem surprisingly close today; however, it did not violate the close relative law of Lv. 18:6- 18). Nevertheless, and relative to the point, these laws and commandments (Nu. 36:5-13) protected the inheritance of the people of Israel. From this, it can be deduced that a righteous nation should protect the inheritance of its people even to the extent of intratribal segregation. The USA should therefore reverse and construe the law back to protect its heirs first, and as before, restore, and even advance their inheritance further than it was in the good times before the overthrow!
