How Kings Should Rule
Dec 20, 2007
Political elections are in the news these days, and each candidate is setting forth his or her agenda. So it is appropriate that we study the contrasting way in which God views "the elect."
It begins with the Dominion Mandate first recorded in Gen. 1:28, where God gave man dominion over the earth and told him to "subdue it." This is expanded further in Psalm 8:6,
"Thou dost make him to rule over the works of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet."
How was a king chosen?
Kings came into power a number of different ways. In many cultures, the right to rule was considered part of the king's blood. When a king died, his eldest son would become king. This is called hereditary succession. If the king didn't have an eldest son, then his brother or another male relative may be appointed king. Sometimes kings came into power through assassination or by conquering lands in war.
Of course, no king could rule without the support of his nobles and lords. In many ways, the king was elected by these powerful men. In some countries there was a council that chose the king such as the Witan council in Anglo-Saxon England.
