All significant concepts of the modern theory of the state are secularized theological concepts not only because of their historical development - in which they were transferred from theology to the theory of the state, whereby, for example, the omnipotent god became the omnipotent lawgiver - but also because of their systematic structure, the recognition of which is necessary for a sociological consideration of these concepts.

Only by being aware of this analogy can we appreciate the manner in which the philosophical ideas of the state developed in the last centuries. ↗
