2. Whereas, in a dictatorship there are not three branches and generally, there are little
or no checks on the authority of the dictator. In fact, in a dictatorship the leader
essentially controls all three branches, and wields total control.

A constitutional monarchy is a form of monarchy in which the sovereign exercises

authority in accordance with a written or unwritten constitution.[1] while the Legislative
Power is exercised by an Parliament, usually elected by citizens. Constitutional
monarchy differs from absolute monarchy (in which a monarch holds absolute power) in
that constitutional monarchs are bound to exercise their powers and authorities within
the limits prescribed within an established legal framework. Constitutional monarchies
range from countries such as Morocco, Jordan, Kuwait and Bahrain, where the
constitution grants substantial discretionary powers to the sovereign, to countries such
as Japan and Sweden where the monarch retains no formal authorities. Canada’s
Government
Canada is a constitutional monarchy. The Canadian
government has two branches: legislative and judicial. The
legislative branch handles the executive duties. The British
monarch (king or queen) is Canada’s head of state. He or
she has little real power.
Canada’s legislature is called Parliament. It is made up of
the House of Commons and the Senate. Together, they
determine Canadian laws and policies. Citizens elect
members of the House of Commons. The leader of the
political party with the most elected members becomes the
head of government, or prime minister. The prime minister
runs the executive branch within the legislative branch. The
prime minister chooses senators from each of the ten
provinces and three territories in Canada.
Canada’s judicial branch has both federal and provincial
courts. The highest court is the federal Supreme Court. It is
made up of the chief justice of Canada and eight other judges.

4. The Church of God recognizes but one Legislator or Lawgiver. With Isaiah the prophet, we say "The
Lord is our judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our king'' (Isaiah 33:22), and with James we
declare, ''There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and II, A to destroy" (James 4:12). Yahweh God,
Himself, gave the laws to govern the conduct of His people at Sinai and in other manifestations recorded
in the Scriptures. In the person of Jesus Christ, He strengthened those laws, gave them new meaning for
the New Testament era, and provided a new motive for and new methods of observing them
