History moves from the Adamicfamily of man in the garden of Eden toward the adopted family of God in the city of God, the New Jerusalem (Rev. 21; 22). Baptism and the Lord’s Suppe~ as rites of the institutional church, announce the advent of the New Jerusalem: the holy commonwealth. The Nucleus of Government Rushdoony cites Exodus 18 to prove his contention that the family is the central institution. Exodus 18 established a hierarchical chain of appeals courts. The problem for Rushdoony’s argument is that this was civil government.
In the name of anti-reductionism, Rushdoony by 1991 had abandoned Reformed theology. Having misled his readers on this point, Rushdoony in this same lecture on “Reconstructing the Church” went on to mislead them even more. He said that the church must perform the Great Commission: establish the crown rights of King Jesus, baptize nations, and teach them to obey God’s word. Notice: not one reference to the sacrament of the Lord5 Supper. While Matthew 28: 18–20 mentions only baptism, the establishment of the church requires the Lord’s Supper.

Yet access to rulership within the church is by service. Jesus linked three things: service to the church, participation in the Lord’s Suppe~ and the authority to render judgment, which means imposing sanctions.
