When comparing the man-worshipping rites for inaugurating presidents and other government officials of post-Christian, Enlightenment republics/democracies with the openly Christian rites for the coronation of a Christian king, such as were seen at the coronation of King Charles III, there can be no preference for the former among those who seek the well-being of the West. As the former Anglican Bishop of Durham N. T. Wright, among others, has pointed out, elected governments tend to focus our attention on the unimportant mundane things of the earth, while hereditary kings tend to pull our attention up to heaven, to the most important things.
There is a particularly noteworthy passage from King Charles’s coronation that deserves attention in this regard. Upon being presented with a sword, the King was told,
‘With this sword do justice, stop the growth of iniquity, protect the holy Church of God and all people of goodwill, help and defend widows and orphans, restore the things that are gone to decay, maintain the things that are restored, punish and reform what is amiss, and confirm what is in good order: that doing these things you may be glorious in all virtue; and so faithfully serve our Lord Jesus Christ in this life, that you may reign for ever with him in the life which is to come. Amen.’
These are exalted and praiseworthy goals, but the question now for King Charles III, having been given these injunctions, is this: Will he do any of those things? Will he rule as a Christian monarch and lift up the downtrodden peoples that make up the United Kingdom, or will he simply reign as a passive figurehead while the members of Parliament (or, rather, the globalists who control it) continue to make a wasteland out of England, Wales, Scotland, and the rest?
There are quite a few things he could do to intervene for his people:
-He could stop the escalation of the UK’s involvement in the war in the Ukraine, call for a ceasefire, and hold negotiations to permanently end the war.
-To help lower the record rates of suicide in the UK, he could meet often with young folks and encourage them to set aside social media, which is a major driver of mental health problems, and take up more traditional and healthful activities instead. Parallel to that, he could propose a simple law preventing access to social media by minors, separate from the unwieldy Online Safety Act that seems to be going nowhere in Parliament.
-He could put an end to the reckless genetic manipulation of his people and their environment by stopping the genetic engineering of crops and livestock and the ‘human augmentation’ of UK soldiers.
And on such a list could go.
But most importantly, King Charles could encourage his people to embrace once again the Orthodox Faith of the Apostles, the original Christian faith of the peoples of the British and Irish islands – before the fateful appearance of the conquering Roman Catholics in 1066 and the chaotic, forever-splintering Protestants in 1534 – for nothing is more valuable than our union with the All-Holy Trinity.
The Anglican Church, of which King Charles is now the head, will be nearing extinction over the next few decades. St Raphael of Brooklyn (+1915), the great Syrian evangelist of North America, helps us understand why when he writes in a letter from 1912,
