Holy Bible

From The Austrian Economics Wiki, the global repository of classical-liberal thought

The Holy Bible is the Scripture of the Christian religion. It contains an Old Testament and a New Testament. The authors of some of its books, such as the epistle to the Hebrews, are unknown, although scholars have made some educated guesses. In some parts of the Bible, those acting on behalf of God act defiantly against the government[1] or against religious authorities. However, the Bible commands obedience to government in those situations in which to do so would not be inconsistent with God's commands.[2][3] Ludwig von Mises quotes or cites Scripture on thirty-two occasions throughout his writings.[4]
