Theonomy Series: God’s Law and Government

For a long time, the evangelical church in America has attempted to remain politically neutral. Many believe that the Bible is silent on political issues and focuses only on spiritual things. However, this is not the case. Many things which people today consider political issues are in fact moral issues addressed by the Bible. Abortion, LGBT issues, immigration, Social Justice, owning weapons, and other issues are moral issues on which God’s word is not silent. In our upcoming series, we will study theonomy, which literally means “God’s Law”. The law which God gave to Moses is not irrelevant to our lives, but it contains timeless principles of what God considers just in a society. God’s Law can guide our thinking as Christians as we seek to understand the world around us according to a biblical worldview, not only in spiritual things, but in practical moral issues as well. We hope you will be both challenged and blessed by this series.
