Rev. Brain Schwertley has gone into great detail in his civil government lecture series to define the proper role of the civil magistrate. In this lecture he deals with case laws and the role and duty of the magistrate to keep the first table of the law. This teaching is somewhat controversial among some Theonomist and Presbyterian bodies but it is entirely scriptural and in full agreement with the original Westminster Standards.
