Is the Gospel Actually Political? | Corey Colvin

Should Christians avoid politics? Or is the gospel itself a political message? In this review of Patrick Schreiner's Political Gospel, we examine why Christians cannot separate their faith from public life while also avoiding the trap of making politics their ultimate hope. Although we disagree with aspects of Schreiner's "Third Way" framework, his central argument is both timely and biblically faithful: Jesus is King, and His lordship has implications for every area of life. We discuss: • Why the gospel is inherently political • Christ's kingdom versus earthly kingdoms • Submission and righteous civil disobedience • Romans 13 and 1 Peter 2 • The strengths and weaknesses of the "Third Way" • Political theology in the local church • Why elders should understand political theology • How Christians can faithfully engage public life GIVEAWAY Want to win a signed copy of Political Gospel by Patrick Schreiner?
