Should Believers Be Involved In Politics?

June 13, 2017

This study examines one of the several wrong views of Church and State: The idea that believers should be involved in evangelism only and not politics.

The short of what's wrong with this view is this: if every believer adhered to this somewhat popular Evangelical teaching, there would be no believers in office! There would be no salt and light influence in a representative form of government.

The State is dependent on godly leaders, but the State is not in the business of manufacturing them: that is the role of the Church. When the Church concentrates its efforts on evangelizing and discipling office holders, those officeholders who possess a Christian world view are in a position to affect much change!

This week we will examine in detail Ephesians 4 verses 1-3. Our nation desperately needs the believers in political leadership to be in unity! What results from a persevering unity can and will extremely bless our nation! Listen on, my friend.

In today's out-of-control competitive, combative environment of public elections, it is almost guaranteed that many false things will be said about you — and it is all too easy to end-up carrying baggage as a result. How do you handle such things? Forgiveness can be a difficult discipline to practice, but it is an indispensable character quality that must be continually cultivated over a lifetime. To be unforgiving is to pander to the old nature which Scripture tells the believer he should lay aside; to be unforgiving is to feed the desires of the flesh. Let's examine what the Scriptures teach about this essential biblical quality — and especially whether we need to forgive someone who is unrepentant.

When the Institution of the Family flounders in its primary responsibility to train up a child in the way he should go (Proverbs 22:6) the State is eventually overwhelmed with insurmountable problems. The State has a much easier job of maintaining civility in society when parents lovingly discipline their children at a young age. One might say that parents oversee the manufacturing plant of a good society. They are God’s first remedy in a fallen world, His intended means of curtailing evil in a nation. The book of Proverbs has much to say to parents about how to raise up a child. Read on my friend.

This week I would like you to take an objective look at your level of spiritual maturity. Let us embark on a period of spiritual introspection. In this study I will attempt to investigate with clarity and insight what the Scriptures reveal as the delineators between spiritual maturity and immaturity. As I prepare this study for you, I pray it will aid the promptings of the Holy Spirit as you ponder your development in Christ. May God richly bless you as you embark on a journey of personal spiritual evaluation. I look forward to hearing your feedback.

Without love being central to your faith, your trajectory in office will be less than it could be otherwise. Your spouse, family members and colleagues must know in their heart of hearts that you are first and foremost a loving person for you to be influential. As Paul will state in the opening portions of this passage, "without love I am nothing." What then are the defining aspects of love that both you and I need to be continually working on and growing in? This study will take a close look at that.

With the terrorist killings in Brussels, Paris, San Bernardino, CA and Orlando, FL and the further threat of terrorist incursion in America due to a naïve or misinformed understanding of what the Bible actually teaches about immigration, I am reissuing What the Bible Says About Our Illegal Immigration Problem this week in order to provide you with a better understanding and a sound systematic theology pertaining to this subject. My prayer is that God will use His Word to be of help as you solidify your thinking about this ongoing problem. The situation is increasingly critical and so I hope and pray that I can help you in this way. Let me know what you think at our weekly Bible studies, or at: info@capmin.org. It’s always a great aid to learn from your feedback; as a matter of fact, Congressman Stevan Pearce greatly contributed to my thinking on one of the summary points in this study. May God guide your actions as you study what He says about nations and immigration.
