Pages : 0
Book Description
This study guide provides first a scriptural understanding of citizenship, and second, practical insights to help Christians faithfully participate as citizens of the United States. The focus is on God's revealed will for ordering our earthly lives and administering human affairs. Glimpses in the Old Testament combined with the full revelation of the New Testament provide important principles and instruction regarding freedom, government, and citizenship. From that scriptural vantage point, the study evaluates the founding principles of our own form of government, diagnoses what is happening today in our society, and identifies the ways that churches, pastors, families, and individual Christians can and should faithfully participate. Table of Contents Lesson 1: What the Bible says about freedom, government, and citizenship - Part 1 Lesson 2: What the Bible says about freedom, government, and citizenship - Part 2 Lesson 3: Ordered Liberty: the founding principles of our form of government - is it biblical? Lesson 4: "A Republic, if you can keep it" - the role of the church, pastors, and families Lesson 5: The Christian U.S. citizen Lesson 6: Political, economic, and cultural angles of attack against God Lesson 7: The Christian and politics: Ways to engage Lesson 8: The Christian response to tyranny

The Good Citizen
Author: Josh Hershberger

Pages :
Book Description
As Christians, we are called to be followers of Jesus in every area of our lives, including in our role as citizen (Matt. 28:16-20; Phil. 1:27). But, how exactly are we supposed to do that in an increasingly polarized and secular society? How can we engage in public life without jeopardizing the gospel? Here's how. In The Good Citizen, Josh Hershberger reviews Biblical principles and historical examples of Christian citizenship across continents and ages. Then, he applies those principles and examples to citizenship in the United States and sets out a practical, four-step plan for gospel-centered citizenship in a divided America. This book includes a Bible study guide for small group or classroom use. Most American Christians want to see the American republic strengthened and renewed for the next generation. But, that will not come through novel political strategies. Rather, it will come by prayer and by engaging government in God's way. Let's get to work.

Pages : 110
Book Description
Excerpt from Citizens in Training: A Manual of Christian Citizenship The millions of Christian Endeavorers in the world are in dead earnest - in live earnest, rather - on the great question of Christian citizenship. They are determined that saloon-keepers, the illiterate, the criminal, the corrupt and corrupting ward politician, shall no longer rule our fair cities or dominate our mighty nations. Scores of campaigns for the betterment of city life, through the reform of political abuses or the reform of individual men, have been carried on during the past few years by our ardent Endeavorers. And yet only a beginning has been made. The government of Americas cities is Americas shame. If our great municipalities are to be redeemed within a generation from the foul hands into which they have fallen, the work must be done by the present Christian Endeavor host and their friends. Who will pretend to say that conscience has anything to do with the politics of any of our great cities? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
