EP266: The Real Culprit in Afghanistan is Not Who You Think / When Is It Biblical for a Christian to Rebel Against a Gov't? / Is the ESV being "White-Washed"?

On This Episode: THE REAL PROBLEM IN AFGHANISTAN It seems almost unanimous that the US needed to leave Afghanistan. It's also seemingly unanimous that no one liked how the withdraw went. We Ie examine the problem, though, I lay it at the feet of the Islam. There is a reason it was Christianized cultures that birthed the Enlightenment and Industrial Revolutions. Islam, largely, is a system of rot, and it leads to places like Afghanistan. CHRISTIANS AND GOVERNMENT REBELLION The Bible has some clarity from the Christian citizen in every country: endeavor to live quiet and peaceful lives, worships regularly, raising families, building businesses, obeying the laws, and praying and working for the well-being of the place where we live. There is another doctrine in this category, though, called the Doctrine of Lesser Magistrates. I only very recently learned about it, and I'll share what I've learned thus far.
