Do politics and Christianity mix? Does the Bible have anything to say about voting? How do I choose between the lesser of two evils? In this episode, John and Pastor Eric sit down to have a friendly discussion about Christianity and the government, how a biblical understanding of our identity in Christ informs and empowers us, and how we can navigate today's politically charged culture with a biblical mindset.
Main points:
- Take advantage of the opportunity to vote, but trust the Lord with the outcome.
- Honor the authorities, but fear God.
- Pray for those in authority.
- Pay your taxes.
- Remember that our hope rests in Christ alone.
