Description
Jesus said, “…Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar’s, and unto God the things which be God’s,” thereby approving (at least for this age) the idea of human government. The hard part is deciding what actually belongs to Caesar and what should be reserved exclusively for God. How Christians are to understand and apply Jesus’ words has been a point of controversy since the days of the Apostles.
- Is there a biblical pattern for human government?
- What should we as Christians expect from government?
- Should Christians participate in government?
- Do some systems of government follow biblical teaching more closely than others?
- What about American democracy – how does it measure up?
- Would a socialist or redistributive economic and governmental system be more biblical?
In this interview booklet, John Eidsmoe answers these questions and more.
