Authority

Kevin Bentley continues the Fault Lines series by teaching the Biblical perspective on government. Should believers ever resist the government? What is God’s role in appointing political leaders? What’s the spiritual purpose of government? Should Christians participate in politics? The answers lie in an understanding of God’s authority. Believers must respect the government.
