Listen "Our citizenship"
Episode Synopsis
Guests:Tim LehmanGwen LeutholdBrad StrahmShow Notes:People have various levels of interest in politics, from being disinterested or intentionally avoidant to very interested and involved.Our problem: we are drawn to rely on earthly governments.Governments are God's servants.Government can't solve our problems.All earthly governments will fail; only God's government will not fail.Our government invites us to participate. How should we participate?Should we vote? The Bible is silent on whether we should vote. Perhaps this is because representative forms of governments did not exist in biblical times.How do we navigate whether to vote for a flawed candidate? HOT BUTTON QUESTION! Seek direction from God. Pray for spiritual discernment.How should I process or discern my level of involvement? Make sure I represent Christ's nature.Be careful to not assign bad intentions to those who hold positions I may disagree with.We need to separate issues from the candidates, and not accept a position simply because it comes from a certain party.Evaluate issues biblically, or if the Bible is silent, what is the Christian perspective?Remember: our citizenship is in Christ.Pray for our government.Recognize God is sovereign over governments.
