COVID-19 & Quarantine Laws

COVID-19 & Quarantine Laws

Author: Matthew Trewhella March 29, 2020 Duration: 44:45
God's Word speaks to all matters of life, including the matter of quarantining. The Lord speaks of this in His law in Leviticus 13. And when we look at the law of God we see one thing that comes through loud and clear – you do NOT quarantine the whole of society – rather you quarantine the sick. There is also a process in God's law to follow to determine who is sick. You do not abridge the rights and freedom of everyone and shut down the whole of society. In this we see the goodness and grace of God's law. God's law is more gracious and protects freedom more than man's law. God's law doesn't destroy the economy and lives of others. God's prescription was intended to protect society not only from the disease, but from economic hardship upon those who weren't diseased. You don't abridge every other person's freedom – you quarantine the sick.
