As important as the law of consideration is to contemporary contract law, it has not always been the standard for enforcing contracts. ProfessorPryordescribes this history of thought on the doctrine of consideration as he evaluates it against the liberty principle from the 3 perspectives you considered in the last discussion: the normative perspective, the situational perspective, and the existential perspective.

Describe what you think the authormeans when he refers to the "Liberty Principle." Explain why you think, the Liberty Principle might justifying enforcing some promises and not enforcing others, and be sure to include support from Scripture, including, but not limited to, those scriptural resources included in the article. For now, limit your focus on the Liberty Principle, rather than the Jurisdictional Principle, which is the subject of the next Discussion.
