When should Christians resist the government? In this episode, we explore Voddie Baucham's book "It's Not Like Being Black" and discuss how Christians can navigate cultural and political challenges while staying true to biblical principles. We examine Romans 13 and what it means to submit to governing authorities, the limits of this submission, and when resistance is justified. You’ll learn about key issues like the government's role in societal morality, the rise of secular ideologies, and the importance of speaking truth with love in the face of cultural opposition. Finally, I explain how Christians can stand firm in their faith, even in difficult circumstances, and emphasize the need for boldness, compassion, and truth in addressing topics like transgenderism, religious freedom, and moral decay. Join me as we unpack these critical questions and reflect on the deeper theological implications.Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
