| Итог: | Legalism, laxism, and antinomianism are rather common occurrences in the Church today but are all deficient approaches to the proper understanding and application of the law. Legalism separates the law from its inner theological and pastoral purposes. Laxism harms the law by diminishing its relevance to pursuing and advancing these higher purposes. Antinomianism denies the rightful role of law in setting a just order for the community. In contrast to legalism, laxism, and antinomianism, there stands the rule of law, according to which those who exercise the power of governance do so through law, not their arbitrary whims. This paper seeks to describe the true purpose of law based on the teachings of Sacred Scripture and the writings of scholarly thinkers such as Aristotle, St. Thomas Aquinas, and Pope St. John Paul II. |
