The Value of a Monarchy

Daniel H. Ludlow

The Book of Mormon gives several valuable principles concerning different types of government. Mosiah 23:8 indicates that a monarchy would be a good system of government "if it were possible that ye could always have just men to be your kings." Thus, apparently nothing is inherently wrong with a monarchal system of government. In fact, the scriptures indicate that when Jesus Christ comes on the earth during the Millennium he will rule as King of kings; this evidently means we will then have a monarchal system of government.
