Christianity is about Christ, who saves the world from sin, disorder, wrong, injustice, and oppression. The law is a God-ordained means to combat those evils in a fallen world.

“Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God’s wrath on the wrongdoer.” Romans 13:1-4

Creation Ministries International (CMI) asked Judge Alberto Boetti about the importance of biblical creation, and the need to defend it in the face of the evolutionary ideas saturating society. Alberto said:

“I’ve come to realize it is essential. I think of myself as very rational, and I can’t accept something which is contradicted by actual evidence. I’m confident that the Bible isn’t disproved by science. It simply isn’t accepted by people holding incompatible philosophies.

JUDGE ALBERTO Boetti, LL.M., graduated cum laude from the University of Turin (Italian: Università degli Studi di Torino). He entered the Italian judicial bench in 2002. He has worked in many sectors of the legal system but specializes mainly in criminal law. He is currently Judge of the Criminal Investigation Magistrate Section of the Court of Cuneo in northwest Italy.

The Bible is the inerrant word of God. For resources to help you defend God’s Word, I recommend two excellent organisations. http://www.answersingenesis.org and http://www.creation.com.
