Wayne Grudem's Bible and Politics (Part 2)
 |
Description
Book Introduction
“A Guide to Biblical Political Perspectives for This Era!!!”
The Bible, as in all other areas, consistently provides much teaching in the realm of politics.
As Abraham Kuyper declared, there is “not a single inch of earthly breadth” beyond the reach of Christ’s sovereignty.
If the church does not speak of a large portion of what the Bible says simply because it is inconvenient for both parties or simply to avoid confrontation and conflict, it is a dereliction of duty on the part of the saints.
This book, following the previous volume, closely examines environmental issues, foreign affairs and national defense, freedom of expression and religious freedom, and the role of the press in light of the Bible, presenting a proper Christian position on each issue.
This book, written by Professor Wayne Grudem, the highest authority on living biblical and systematic theology, is a monumental work that comprehensively covers 'politics as spoken of in the Bible' along with the commercial volume. It is a reference book that all pastors, seminarians, and Christian politicians should keep on their desks and read from time to time.
