In this passage, Paul stands in Jerusalem, caught between spiritual visions, cultural hostility, and political injustice. When Jesus redirected him away from his own people and sent him to the Gentiles, Paul obeyed, even though that obedience sparked outrage and violence. He quickly learned that even brave faithfulness can close doors and cause conflict, but he stayed strong because his mission was from the King.As the mob raged, Paul wisely used his Roman citizenship to avoid illegal punishment and continue spreading the gospel. This moment reminds us that Paul was both a Roman by birth and a citizen of heaven by grace. He was never afraid to suffer for Christ, but he also did not hesitate to use the rights available to him for God's greater purpose.Like Paul, believers today live as citizens of two kingdoms. Our primary allegiance is to the Lord Jesus Christ, but God has also placed us in earthly communities where our voice and influence matter. We are called to persevere faithfully through storms, to stand courageously against injustice, and to seize every opportunity, whether spiritual or civic, for the sake of the gospel.Paul's story challenges us: Don't give up, stand up. Don't lose focus in the storm. Keep your eyes on Christ, the true King, and let His light shine through you in a dark and divided world.
In this conversation, Joel Webbon and Dr. Stephen Wolfe explore the intricate relationship between church and state through the lens of Two-Kingdoms Theology. They discuss the distinctions between civil and spiritual authority, the role of the church in society, and the concept of the Christian Prince as a divinely appointed leader.Webbon critiques both Protestant and Catholic perspectives on the church and state, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a clear understanding of Scripture and the implications of political leadership in a Christian context.
The Lion of Judah isn't safe but He is good.
We live between two kingdoms, the earthly and the heavenly. While we respect earthly authority, our true loyalty is to God's kingdom, which is eternal and already present through Christ. As citizens of heaven, let us set our hearts on what matters to God and respond with prayer, faith, and hope.

Aloha and welcome to The Mission North Shore's Podcast! In this powerful exploration of Matthew 2, we're challenged to examine the clash between two kingdoms: the kingdom of self and the kingdom of Jesus. Through the contrasting examples of King Herod and Jesus Christ, we're invited to reflect on our own priorities and values. Are we, like Herod, consumed with building our own temporal kingdoms? Or are we, like Jesus, focused on serving others and advancing God's eternal kingdom? God bless and have a great week!

The Ladies are celebrating our nation's birthday on July 4 by revisiting a favorite episode from 2022 all about hymns for the nation. Hymns for the Nation, or Patriotic Songs? Or both? As Americans are celebrating Independence Day, Lutherans once again consider the worth of hymns and songs that focus on God's gift of land and government. Within the context of our Two Realms (or Two Kingdoms) theology, Sarah considers the hymns found in the “Nation and National Songs” section of the Lutheran Service Book, along with some popular American favorites. Hymns featured in this episode include “God Bless Our Native Land,” “Before You, Lord, We Bow,” “Eternal Father, Strong to Save,” “God of Our Fathers, Whose Almighty Arm,” plus a few American songs you'll likely know. The third hymn in the Nation and National Songs section, “Lift Every Voice and Sing” was featured in the Hymns Sing with Sarah episode for Black History Month. Read all 101 additional verses for “Eternal Father, Strong to Save” in this PDF from alliedmerchantnavy.com.

This week we consider the Christian's relationship to revolution. In the first reading, we ask how the Christian is to relate to the 'spirit of Revolution' embodied in the French Revolution (a movement that is still with us, bearing fruit in our own politics and society). Towards the end of the episode we consider Francis Schaeffer and Samuel Rutherford in their arguments for civil resistance to ungodly authority. Is it right to oppose the humanistic revolutionary spirit, if necessary, by force? These and other questions are given attention in this episode of the Magazine Podcast.

Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/editorialtpv El día de hoy hablaremos sobre La Autoridad de Cristo Sobre las Naciones en la teología política de Juan Calvino (1509-1564), de acuerdo al capítulo seis titulado "Christ's Political Government: Early Formulations" del libro "Calvin's Political Theology and the Public Engagement of the Church Christ's Two Kingdoms" por Matthew J. Tuininga. Ver aquí: https://www.cambridge.org/gb/universitypress/subjects/law/jurisprudence/calvins-political-theology-and-public-engagement-church-christs-two-kingdoms?format=HB . Páginas: 228-254. El podcast analiza la evolución de la teología política de Juan Calvino, siguiendo su desarrollo desde su temprano y relativamente secular énfasis en el papel del gobierno en el mantenimiento del orden y la justicia, como se ve en sus Instituciones de 1536 y en su comentario sobre Romanos de 1540, hasta su visión posterior, más teológicamente impregnada, que defiende la responsabilidad del magistrado de promover y defender la verdadera religión. Este cambio, influenciado por sus interacciones con los anabaptistas y su desarrollo de la teología bíblica, se evidencia en su Tratado contra los anabaptistas de 1544 y sus exhortaciones posteriores a los magistrados civiles. El análisis destaca la aplicación constante de Calvino de la doctrina de los «dos reinos», diferenciando entre los reinos espiritual y político, al tiempo que explora la compleja interacción entre ellos. A lo largo de su obra, Calvino mantiene la importancia tanto de la obediencia a la autoridad legítima como de la resistencia a la tiranía, aunque con diferentes matices para los ciudadanos particulares y los magistrados.

Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/editorialtpv El día de hoy hablaremos sobre El Reino Espiritual de Cristo en la teología política de Juan Calvino (1509-1564), de acuerdo al capítulo cinco titulado "Christ's Spiritual Government" del libro "Calvin's Political Theology and the Public Engagement of the Church Christ's Two Kingdoms" por Matthew J. Tuininga. Ver aquí: https://www.cambridge.org/gb/universitypress/subjects/law/jurisprudence/calvins-political-theology-and-public-engagement-church-christs-two-kingdoms?format=HB . Páginas: 182-227. El podcast explora la teología política de Juan Calvino, centrándose en su concepto de la Iglesia como el reino espiritual de Cristo. Calvino distingue este reino espiritual de las estructuras políticas terrenales, argumentando que la autoridad de la Iglesia se deriva únicamente de la Palabra de Dios, rechazando las pretensiones papales de poder magisterial. Identifica los elementos clave del gobierno de la Iglesia (predicación, sacramentos y disciplina) como parte integral del gobierno espiritual de Cristo, al tiempo que reconoce la necesidad de la Iglesia de un orden interno y de una interacción con las autoridades civiles en asuntos no espirituales. Calvino contrasta su punto de vista con el de otros reformadores y el de la Iglesia Católica Romana, destacando el papel crucial de la Palabra y el Espíritu en el ministerio de la Iglesia y rechazando la fusión de los reinos espiritual y temporal. En última instancia, el autor examina cómo la comprensión de Calvino del gobierno espiritual de la Iglesia da forma a su eclesiología y a su crítica del papado.

Episode NotesEpisode 94: Matthew 5-7 - Two Kingdoms, One Choice: The Sermon on the Mount in One EpisodeMarch 26, 2025 - Host: Dr. Gregory HallIn this episode we'll be talking about Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. It spans nearly three chapters in Matthew's gospel… and it will challenge you to rethink many assumptions you may have had about how this life of ours should be lived. This is a quick flyover looking at the structure of the sermon. Resources Referenced and/or Read:Where Luke puts the blessings and woes together... Matthew separates them out into two separate discourses and on two separate mountains.1. Matt 5:3 - kingdom opened vs. Matthew 23:13 - Kingdom shut2. Matt 5:4 - Mourners comforted vs. Matt 23:14 - Mourners distressed3. Matt 5:5 - Meek inherit the earth vs Matt 23:15 - fanatic compassing the earth trying to gain control4. Matt 5:6 - True righteousness sought vs Matt 23:16-22 seeking a template for righteousness.5. Matt 5:7 - Merciful obtain mercy vs. Matt 23:23-24 - mercy neglected6.

In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, host Jacob Winograd welcomes fellow LCI podcaster and author Cody Cook to discuss Cody's new book The Anarchist Anabaptist. The conversation dives deep into the theological and philosophical underpinnings of Christian anarchism, exploring how the Anabaptist tradition—known for its radical pacifism and voluntary community life—aligns and occasionally diverges from libertarian political theory. The duo also reflects on the Reformed tradition's evolution in relation to state power, religious liberty, and covenant theology.Throughout the episode, Jacob and Cody explore key tensions: the individualism of libertarianism vs. the communal ethic of Anabaptism, the moral basis for nonviolence, and how different traditions approach Romans 13. Cody explains how the Anabaptist theological framework not only anticipated many classical liberal ideas but may offer more organic theological resources for a libertarian worldview. The episode concludes with a fun and insightful rapid-fire Q&A, revealing shared values, respectful disagreements, and a mutual desire to point Christians toward liberty and away from coercive power.Full Episode Show Notes at BiblicalAnarchyPodcast.comThe Biblical Anarchy Podcast is part of the Christians For Liberty Network, a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute.Audio Production by Podsworth Media.

El podcast explora la teología de los «dos reinos» de Juan Calvino, distinguiendo entre el reino espiritual de Cristo (centrado en la rectitud espiritual interior y la iglesia) y su reino político (relacionado con el orden exterior y el gobierno civil). Analiza cómo este marco da forma a las opiniones de Calvino sobre la libertad cristiana, las instituciones sociales como la esclavitud y los roles de género, y la relación entre la autoridad civil y espiritual. Tuininga examina el uso que hace Calvino de términos clave y contrasta su enfoque con el de otros pensadores de la Reforma. El podcast también aborda posibles malas interpretaciones de las ideas de Calvino, en particular en lo que respecta a la tensión entre la libertad cristiana y las obligaciones sociales.
