Jesus, His Followers, and Politics - Courage Required
Is it more important to follow God's laws or civil policies? There are times we’ll need to choose which to obey. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses several places in scripture where people disobeyed civil authority to stay true to God’s commands. The Hebrew midwives, John, Paul, and many others consistently decided to follow God instead of ungodly laws made by people in power. Choosing to be faithful to God requires courage, and it may come with unpleasant earthly consequences—but it has a significant impact in God’s Kingdom. Our assignment is to preach the gospel to all the world, and that mission remains the same—no matter what civil authorities demand.
