Synopsis

The People's Bible Teachings is a series of books on all of the main doctrinal teachings of the Bible. Following the pattern set by The People's Bible series, these books are written especially for laypeople. The authors of The People's Bible Teachings are parish pastors and professors who have had years of experience teaching the Bible.

The relationship between church and state in America is a tumultuous one, often regarded by Christians as a confusing mess that is best left alone. Yet both the temporal kingdom of civil government and the eternal heavenly kingdom are God's blessings to us. This book looks at government as presented during biblical times, traces church-state relations throughout history, and concludes by addressing the current state of affairs in the United States. It also leads readers back to the Scriptures to seek principles for guiding and motivating our attitudes and actions.
