Are Christians forbidden from engaging in politics, or is Scripture being selectively weaponized to keep believers silent?
In this LIVE FREE special reaction episode, Pastor Josh responds to Rhett & Link’s viral commentary on Christianity and politics, breaking down the biblical errors, cultural assumptions, and spiritual forces underneath the argument that Christians should “stay out of power.” This episode draws a clear line between faithful doubt vs. deliberate deception, and explains why political passivity is not a virtue, but a strategy the Bible warns us about.
You’ll learn:
- Why Jesus rejecting Satan’s offer was not a rejection of political authority, but of acquiring it the wrong way
- The difference between refugees from doubt and apostles of unbelief (Jude 22–23)
- Why “My kingdom is not of this world” is commonly misunderstood, and what Jesus actually meant
- How secularism turns politics into a substitute religion (and why the state becomes god)
- Why voting is not a sacrament, but a moral decision between available options
- What it means to be the salt of the earth and how Christians are called to slow decay, not retreat
- Why culture didn’t become political, the government became theological
- How Scripture views power, dominion, and Christ as King of Kings over every sphere
