Description
What does God have to say about civil government? There are many different types of governing authorities today: monarchies, democracies, communist dictatorships. Do the same basic Biblical principles apply to each form of government? Do some apply better than others? What is a Christian’s role as a member of a modern civil society?
To answer these questions, it’s important to begin with the understanding that government is God’s idea. When God first created humanity, he gave them dominion. Humanity was to order and rule over creation, and that even includes human life and relationships—not tyrannically, but in a life-giving way. While the execution of this calling has been seriously corrupted by the fall, it is still God’s desire for creation today. Listen as Pastor Luke Herche begins a three-part series on “The Creation, Fall, & Redemption of Civil Government,” preaching on Romans 13:1–7 and answering four questions: Where does it come from? How is it exercised? Why is it exercised? And what do we do now?
