Good legislation is important, but men and women can hardly be expected to make policies in accordance with sound, biblically-based principles if they are at odds with the author of Scripture. Only the Gospel has the efficacy to change a heart. We believe that foremost in the Capital Community is the objective of evangelizing and discipling political leaders. We need more disciplers!
Consider whether there is a biblical basis or calling to minister to political leaders. If so, how important is this in the mind of God? I think you may be in for a surprise!

God knows that personal ownership of private property is fundamental to every individual's ability to express his best possible self as a reflection of his being created in God's image (I will unpack that idea in this study).

One of the most volatile policy issues of our times relates to a fundamental disagreement as to how a nation should approach entitlements. Entitlement programs now devour the majority of the U.S. federal government’s budget. What you know too is that that the nation is now nearly $20 trillion dollars in debt and growing rapidly at an uncontrollable rate.
What do the Scriptures have to say about such allocative decisions and policy? In a pre-political sense, how can the Bible be used to inform the Public Servant in this regard? Does God speak to this issue? I believe the answer is a resounding "Yes!"

America's entitlement program policies are now hugely coming to roost on the doorsteps of the U.S. Treasury. Given this crisis, what wisdom can we glean from God's Word that could aid us in solving the problem? May God use this Bible study in that regard.

government (apart from direct entitlement programs) should aggressively aid its people (albeit indirectly) to overcome poverty...

How many times have you heard someone respond to your biblically based reason with, "Well that's a matter of your own interpretation." How do you respond when someone tries to neutralize your authoritative use of the Bible? How should you respond? Perhaps, even, you've given up using the Bible authoritatively because of this? This study should encourage and help you if that is the case.

This is the final study of a four part series on How We Got The Bible. May the Bible hold a special, authoritative place in your heart: It being God's Word, it follows that it should be the final arbitrator of truth, faith and practice for all areas of your life.

This is the third of a four part series on How We Got The Bible. For convenience, recognition of the New Testament canon by the church may be divided into three periods: (1) A.D. 70-170; (2) A.D. 170-303; and (3) A.D. 303- 397. This study will focus on the first period. May the Holy Spirit bless your understanding of this critically important subject — how God gave us His Book.
