What does God require of governments? When, why and how should Christians become involved in politics? Can morality be legislated? Is civil disobedience biblical? Should Christians pay war taxes? These are some of the questions that John H. Redekop examines in light of what he calls "Anabaptist realism." In the twelve short chapters of Politics Under God, he considers such church-state relations from biblical, theological and historically Anabaptist perspectives before delving into the challenges of political involvement for Christians and secular periodicals in Canada and the United States. Redekop affirms politics as an appropriate arena of Christian service to the extent permitted by Christian discipleship. Approaching government as an institution established by and accountable to God, Redekop offers a clear understanding of the significance of politics for Christians. 226 Pages.
