Can I Be a Christian and Participate in Politics?

May 2, 2021 by Mike A.

Video Player

Various Texts, including 1 Peter 2:11-25 and Romans 13

Jesus is King of all nations.  We are Christians first, American’s second.

 

Thing’s we learn about politics from Peter:

  • Recognize the authorities and submit.
  • Do not use your freedom in Christ to do evil things.
  • To submit means we might endure suffering, like Jesus.

Things we learn about politics from Paul:

  • We must not let patriotism become an Idol.
  • We are first a citizen of the Kingdom of God.
  • Those who are in power are only allowed to be by God.
  • We must stand for truth, but doing so may come at a price.

Things we learn about politics from Jesus:

  • Love one another – if you do this they will know you are my disciples.
  • Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s.  To God what is God’s.
  • Be Shrewd but innocent.  

Main Point: Mark 10:42-45
