“Our preaching does not stop with the law. That would lead to wounding without binding up, striking down and not healing, killing and not making alive, driving down to hell and not bringing back up, humbling and not exalting. Therefore, we must also preach grace and the promise of forgiveness - this is the means by which faith is awakened and properly taught. Without this word of grace, the law, contrition, penitence, and everything else are done and taught in vain.” MeanDoeDoneLawHealingHellGraceAliveTaughtPromiseDown AndKillingDrivingVainPreachingAwakenedBindingHumblingPenitenceContrition Author:Martin Luther

“My basic approach is to recognize that mainstream legal theories of contract have been muddied by unlibertarian and positivistic conceptions of law and rights. Questions about what rights are "alienable" or not, loose talk about how promises should be "binding," etc., highlight the need for clarity in this area. In my view, to sort these issues out one needs a very clear and consistent understanding of the nature of property rights and ownership.” NeedsShouldHas BeensLawUnderstandingViewsIssuesClearRightsTheoryPromiseApproachAreasPropertyClarityConsistentEtcConceptionContractsMainstreamOwnershipProperty RightsBindingHighlights Author:Stephan Kinsella
