Concise Theology: The State

from LightWk Bible Studies · host LightWk

What is the role of government in God’s plan? In this episode, J.I. Packer explains how the state is ordained by God to preserve justice, punish evil, and promote order. While fallen and limited, civil authority is a legitimate and necessary institution. Christians are called to respect, pray for, and participate in public life—without confusing the kingdom of man with the kingdom of God.
