This Biblical Passage is VERY Political (Eph.1:20-23)
It may be 'fashionable' to pretend your faith lifts you above the political fray... but it's not historical
We’ve all met some of those ‘precious moments’ type Christians who are far too ‘holy’ to involve themselves in such trivialities as politics.
Have you ever asked them to justify that position from scripture? That’s a great way to make them sweat. For some, that might even be the closest they’ve seen to exercise in years.
They’ll sweat because they can’t find any place in scripture that puts a clean break between personal faith and public policy. In fact, throughout scripture, you’ll find each interacting with the other on a regular basis.
Sometimes for the better. Sometimes the worse. But always interacting.
Anyone who assumes that would no longer be the case after Jesus threw open the doors of faith to the rest of the world is very, VERY mistaken.
As the verse we are looking at today will shout at us.
