I have to go vegetate in the veterinarian’s waiting room, but first let me post this Chalcedon editorial by Mark Rushdoony, from 2004:

Christ’s command to “Occupy until I come” (Luke 19:13) should have been the church’s watchword–and ours, too, individually.
Because we didn’t occupy, the ungodly came out of the woodwork and occupied our culture; and we’re having a very hard time holding on to the little bit they’ve left us.
Work harder. Pray harder. Sing louder. And proclaim the truth.
Amen, Lee. I have just been reading the first 6 Psalms, and they are a good reminder. We have been given the authority to tread upon serpents, scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. We also have the whole armor of God from Eph. 6. We just need to rise up and use what we have been given.
