I would like to preface this article by stating the that man's problem, while living in the world, are not primarily political. Consequentially, his remedies are not primarily political. Man will only attain true peace and felicity at the return of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the establishment of the New Jerusalem.

It appears to be self-evident to the rational mind that the democratically induced utopia envisioned by the thinkers of the enlightenment is nothing more than a godless fantasy; modern democracies demonstrate this. The ancients warned us that democracy was ultimately, for all intents and purposes, a tool for oligarchy and tyranny; the rule of a self-serving majority. As Plato says: "Tyranny is probably established out of no other regime than democracy—from the highest degree of liberty, I think, comes the greatest and most savage slavery."

 Indeed, the early proponents of democracy feared the tyranny of the monarch, who serves his own interest; a justified fear, but one that is by no means resolved by democracy. Democracy is the womb for the vilest of human creatures: the politician, the demagogic charmer who is more preoccupied with the manipulation of the masses as a means of gaining power than the interests of the nation. The people will not choose the navigator, but will chose the one who makes the most appealling promises. 

It is in light of my critique of democracy that I propose an alternative (I of course am nowhere near the first or most brilliant proponent of it), for I am in accord with those proponents of the republic, the public affair, who have brought their criticism of the monarchical system as a form of tyranny. I will give the following arguments to support my thesis that the  Christian Constitutional Monarchy is the ideal form of government, and is the best response to the problems faced by our democracies:

Firstly, the monarch, whose birthright is rule over the nation, is, in principle, secure in the safekeeping of his function. This immediately eliminates the primary inconvenience of the rule of the politican, who, being in constant fear of losing his function, will preoccupy himself first and foremost with guaranteeing his authority over the nation, whether this be through the establishment of tyranny or through continual demagogy and deception of the general populace. The monarch, therefore, is freed from the shackles of the politician, and is able to preoccupy himself with the rulership of the nation, as a republic, for the general well being of his subjects. Furthermore, the monarch is inclined to do so by the divinely ordained nature of his position and by pious fear of the Supreme Ruler, the Christ, who rules over him. 

Secondly, admitting that the monarch is human, and therefore subject to the rule of sin and self servitude in this present world, the ideal Government will insure, or in the very least, attempt to limit, the tyrannical tendencies which a monarch can have, through the establishment of a constitution and some form of parliement (no matter the various names or forms which this can take). 

Therefore, this sytem of government is the ideal way to insure that the one in power is accorded the necessary authority to properly execute his function for the well-being of his subjects, while avoiding, as best as possible, a descent into tyranny and despotism.

(This is my first article, so I invite you to be lenient).
