Is your true citizenship in heaven or bound by earthly affiliations? Discover the transformative power of Kingdom Citizenship with Pastor Kevin Smith as he delves into Philippians 3:17-4:1. Learn how early Christians subverted the Roman political order by pledging their ultimate allegiance to God's kingdom, even under the threat of persecution. Pastor Smith’s message is a stirring call to emulate Paul’s example, urging us to prioritize our loyalty to Christ above all else.
In examining the profound political implications of Jesus' kingdom compared to earthly realms, we revisit Pilate's reluctant decision to crucify Jesus. Our discussion emphasizes that Christianity is inherently political—challenging societal norms by advocating for divine justice and governance. Dive into Jesus' teachings in Matthew 6 and discover how to prioritize the kingdom of God over worldly anxieties and political affiliations, signified by the cross rather than partisan symbols.
As we navigate the complexities of modern culture, it's crucial for Christians to avoid becoming overly entangled in worldly politics. We'll explore Paul's teachings to the Philippians, emphasizing the need to prioritize the gospel and discipleship over political allegiances. Additionally, we address the urgent need for Christian parents to safeguard their children from anti-God influences, drawing insights from John MacArthur's new book. Equip yourself with practical tools and biblical guidance to protect the hearts and minds of the next generation.
