“Our duty, therefore, is to reclaim one area of life after another for Christ, not through revolution but regeneration. Now, the point at which we must obey God rather than the state, rather than man, is where the state seeks to usurp the powers of Christ’s kingdom, to control the church, to destroy the life of the church, to render the church no more than an agency of state, and of course, this is the current move in this country.”

— R. J. Rushdoony
