Most of us look at the government as a necessary evil but God ordained the Civil Magistrate to be a blessing for your good. How is can the Magistrate be a blessing under God and what has God given the Civil Magistrate to do in punishing evil and honoring the good?

We who are Christians are exhorted, urged to pray for all those who are in authority.

Civil Disobedience is an essay by Henry David Thoreau. Published in 1849 under the title Resistance to Civil Government, it expressed Thoreau's belief that people should not allow governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, and that people have a duty both to avoid doing injustice directly and to avoid allowing their acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican-American War.

Every aspect of life has its own authority structures, including our homes, churches, schools, and society as a whole. When we fail to understand these levels of authority, we often end up frustrated, confused, and even rebellious. In part two of Levels of Authority, Duane Sheriff teaches God's divine order of authority and emphasizes why this understanding is crucial for every individual, especially our young people.God's government stands as the highest authority, and all other forms—self-government, family, church, and civil—flow from Him. When a lower authority attempts to overrule a higher one, corruption follows, leading to disorder and instability. Understanding authority not only provides protection but also empowers us to live with confidence and order in a culture filled with confusion.

In this episode, we examine what the Bible says about the relationship between the Christian and government. Some of the questions we will consider: Must Christians pay taxes to a government that spends money wastefully or promotes evil? Can Christians vote? Can Christians run for political office? What should the relationship be between the church and government? biblequestions.org

Sermon by Pastor James Brown Jr from Romans 13:1-7.

Belgic Confession Article 36

Chapters 22 and 23 of the Westminster Confession explain the our responsibilities to God with reference to oaths we take and how we relate to the civil magistrate. Join us as we think through what these chapters teach.

Today I share some thoughts on David Lipscomb's use of Scripture in his classic work titled Civil Government: Its Origin, Mission, and Destiny, and the Christian's Relation to It. Although this book is well over a hundred years old, it is surprisingly relevant today as Christians wrestle with how to understand the Bible and how to apply it.

Recast of episode aired 1-13-2021We don't want to pour more fuel in the fire that surrounds us today. But, it needs to be said that Christians are called to interact with the government and society in a vastly different way. Today we welcome back Don and discuss the joys of living our vocations as called children of God through Jesus. What does that mean for us in this changing society?

John McGowan joins the podcast again to discuss a recent republication of Hannah Arendt's essay "Civil Disobedience, which responds to Plato's Crito, Thoreau's "Resistance to Civil Government," and the leftwing mass movements of the 1960s. John and I discuss Arendt's importance as a theorist of revolution and totalitarianism, as well as the complex life of the idea of civil disobedience and its reception by Tolstoi, Gandhi, and King.

Preaching from 1 Peter 2:11-16, how does Peter form and fashion our relationship to the government?

As Protestant Christians, we believe that the Bible is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice because it is the very word of God. Despite what some seem to think, God's word has much to say about the civil government and Romans 13:1-7 is a key passage. With another important election, it will benefit us greatly to consider what God says about his purposes for, the authority of, and our relationship to the civil government.

Civil Government : Romans 13 : Pastor Raef Chenery : 09-29-24 by Park Community Church

Dabney warns that governments are often eager to lean on the church to do its bidding and that if we are not careful the energies of the church will be subsumed under the aims of the state. The establishment of the church by the state almost always turns out better for the state than the church.

In this sermon, we wrestle with the problem that we often trust our political will to transform our community more than the power of Gospel love and proclamation.

Some Christians in our day push back against the idea of “the separation of church and state,” but David VanDrunen argues that, in reality, this is a crucial distinction taught throughout the Bible. So what is the proper view of government from a Christian perspective and how should we think about the relationship between theology and politics? Shane talks with Dr. VanDrunen about these and other issues he addresses in his book Politics After Christendom: Political Theology in a Fractured World.SHOW NOTESRecommended BooksPolitics After Christendom, David VanDrunenLiving in God's Two Kingdoms, David VanDrunenNatural Law: A Short Companion, David VanDrunenDivine Covenants & Moral Order, David VanDrunenNatural Law & The Two Kingdoms, David VanDrunenRecommended ArticlesParadise Lost, David VanDrunenThe Tower of Babel, Shane RosenthalChristianity & Politics, William Bennet, Os Guinness & OthersRecommended AudioA Biblical Theology of Civil Government, David VanDrunenThe Rise & Fall of Christendom, David VanDrunenTheocracy or Liberalism?

Eric Metaxas’s new book, Letter to the American Church, Biden’s use of the image of God in proclaiming Transgender Awareness Day, and 29 years of direct legal and policy advocacy have brought home to me with increasing urgency observations made about Christianity and society by Abraham Kuyper in the 1890’s. Is Christianity and the work and activism of most Christians in law, civil government, and public policy Christ-less? How does it matter? John Owen’s Christologia provides a needed answer.
