177. Statist Slavery, Biblical Servitude, and Leviticus 25

About this episode

Chris Hume contrasts statist slavery with biblical servitude and examines Leviticus 25 in the context of the modern prison system.

In this episode of The Lancaster Patriot Podcast , Chris Hume contrasts statist slavery with biblical servitude and looks at a section of Leviticus 25. The ugly truth is that the United States has the fourth-highest incarceration rate on earth (behind only El Salvador, Cuba, and Rwanda), nearly 2 million souls locked in cages, a 70+% recidivism rate, and a system that turns petty offenders into lifetime wards of the state — all funded by your taxes. Most damning of all: the modern prison-industrial complex is the direct antithesis of the biblical law concerning servants. While man-made law locks men up for years with no path to restitution and no hope of restoration, God’s Law offers a different path.
