By: Gene Van Shaar Part of the ancient Mosaic code known as "The Law of the Kinsman-Redeemer" established that the nearest blood relative had the privilege or responsibility to help, rescue, or save a family member who was in need, danger, or bondage. The person who functioned in that role or office was originally called a go'el and part of his assignment was to "set free." The best account of the traditional Kinsman-Redeemer role isthe romantic story of Ruth and Boaz. Ruth's husband died and Boaz, presumably a wealthy widower and distant relative of Ruth, assumed the role of Kinsman-Redeemer for her, saved her from poverty, and married her. Subsequently Ruth and Boaz became the great grandparents of King David who was anancestor of Mary, the mother of Jesus, who became our ultimate Kinsman-Redeemer. (Ruth 1-4; Luke 3:23-38) In the Judeo-Christian Tradition, and in virtually all of Western Civilization, the family has been considered to be the most fundamental and necessary component of social and economic systems and has consistently filled the role of Kinsman-Redeemer for virtually all people. Mothers and fathers have successfully served, provided for, and trained their children for thousands of years. Children have experienced parental love and the blessings of Kinsman-Redeemers and passed it all on from generation to generation. Beyond this, families have been the source of immeasurable joy and fulfillment whenever emotionally healthy families have flourished. Sadly, some families have been and continue to be dysfunctional. In many cases extended family members assuming the role of Kinsman-Redeemer have come to the rescue. When the family breaks down there is suffering. When families function well there is an exponential increase in happiness. Consider the service, love, happiness, and training expressed in the following poem: She Mothered Five Unbelievable? Exaggeration? Could a significant faction actually be so reckless and evil? Remember Marx and Engels, the founders of socialism? They purposed that everybody should be cut off from all knowledge of, and all responsibilities for,their specific children and that the socialist collective should take over all child rearing and education. (Engels, Origin of the Family) Gone would be the days of fondly tucking your sleeping child in at night or raising your children at your side, teaching them the life lessons you think are most important. The state would usurp such responsibilities. Current democratic socialists are saying that the reason socialism has always failed is because family bonds have blocked it by perpetuating endearment to specific people and property. All of this and much more is well documented in the forthcoming book "The Invincible Family." (Regnery Publishing) The following quotes from that soon-to-be published book are representative. "Seen through the lens of socialism, the 'belonging' of things to specific people is an evil, wicked, bad, nasty thing which leads to possessiveness and dreaded 'inequality.' Since family bonds are bonds of 'belonging,' this makes the family profoundly problematic in a socialist or communist society. In fact, the core aims of socialism as outlined by Engels and Marx include: the overthrow of capitalism, the abolition of private property, the overthrow of governments, and the elimination of the family as a social unit." "True power is not dependent upon the invented honors of earth. True power is that which guides, shapes, carves and claims the souls of men. And the souls of men are most often won and lost at the feet of mothers." "The love of a woman for her child is the very thing that energizes, individualizes, privatizes, and stabilizes the entire world, one child at a time.… The love of mothers and fathers has historically been the standard against which all other loves are measured. But the love of family is increasingly being attacked as 'selfish'.… Efforts to debase family love and to equate familial connectedness to racism are expanding." Let's watch for the publication of the "The Invincible Family" in the summer of 2020 which is poised to act as an antidote to the ferocious anti-family movement currently saturating society especially in pro-socialist circles. The world is courting disaster by attempting to do away with the principle and practice of Kinsman-Redeemers. Apparently, a biblical author saw the problem of family fragmentation coming over two thousand years ago when he said, "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse." (Malachi 4:5-6) The world will be saved by protecting and preserving the family, not by destroying it as devils and socialists demand. Have you been blessed by a Kinsman-Redeemer? Are you willing to help others by becoming one? Do you believe in the goodness and benefits of the family? Can you think of some past and present leaders who qualify as Kinsman-Redeemers? Donald Trump certainly does, as verified in these three must-read articles: Benefactor, Dennis Prager, Larry Provost. President Trump’s policies across the board, from the United Nations to the heart of our nation, seek to support and strengthen bonds between mothers, fathers, and children both before and after birth. President Trump’s policies work to ensure the continuation of familial belonging and private stewardship of family members to each other, which forms the core of civilized society. On the other hand, every democrat presidential candidate is demanding multiple anti-family practices and embracing the ultimate anti-family political system: socialism. Will you be voting to save the family or destroy it?
