Religion and Politics Many issues today on various levels involve politics and religion. Many believe that if a subject is addressed in the pulpit that has political implication, one is necessarily mixing politics and religion. There are presently two powerful movements in America: The Politically Correct and Religious Right Movements.

Religion and Politics Slavery. A. Col. 3: 22, 23, 4: 1, I Cor. 7: 20-24. Slavery has and continues to be a political issue. We are told that there are about 27, 000, 000 slaves today in the world consisting of many nations, the highest ever.

Warfare. A. Jas. 4: 1, 2, 2 Tim. 2: 4, I I I Tim. 5: 8. Religion and Politics Warfare. A. Jas. 4: 1, 2, 2 Tim. 2: 4, I I I Tim. 5: 8. While James 4: 1, 2 is obviously referring to spiritual problems and warring, the same can be said regarding most of carnal warfare. Creed and political ambition is the impetus for most wars.

Religion and Politics Church/State. A. Rom. 13: 1-7.

Role of Women. A. Eph. 5: 22, 23, I Pet. 3: 3-6, Tit. 2: 4, 5. Religion and Politics Role of Women. A. Eph. 5: 22, 23, I Pet. 3: 3-6, Tit. 2: 4, 5.

The matter of children. A. Eph. 6: 1, 2, 4, Prov. 29: 15. Religion and Politics The matter of children. A. Eph. 6: 1, 2, 4, Prov. 29: 15. Some children’s movement attempt to band any form of corporal punishment.

Religion and Politics Abortion. A. Luke 1: 41, Ex. 21: 22-25.

Gay marriage. A. Gen. 2: 18, 21-25, Rom. 1: 24-27. Religion and Politics Gay marriage. A. Gen. 2: 18, 21-25, Rom. 1: 24-27.

Religion and Politics War on drugs. A. Prov. 23: 31. Liquor remains one of the most devastating drugs ever know to man.

Religion and Politics Lottery. A. Eph. 4: 28.

Death penalty. A. Rom. 13: 2-4, Gen. 9: 6. Religion and Politics Death penalty. A. Rom. 13: 2-4, Gen. 9: 6.

Religion and Politics Euthanasia. A. Rom. 13: 9.

Religion and Politics New World Order. A. I Tim. 2: 1, 2.

Religion and Politics Conclusion: Just to mention political matters that are relevant to the cause of Christ is not necessarily “preaching politics” (Matt. 2). Examples of a religious political agenda would be cases of the “Religious Right.” When the gospel is applicably preached, the home, school, the work place, and government will often be referenced. A clear case of the wrong mixture of religion and politics is when the church becomes politically driven, discusses political issues as such in the pulpit and tells the members how to vote. They may even offer their church building for voting booths. However, the word of God applies to many sectors of life as it pronounces what is moral and immoral. One applicable area would be “politics.” (Notice that about half of Matthew chapter two consists of references to Harold and the political state of the involved areas. Matthew does not mention such to obtain votes for his candidate, but to show the contemporary political state.)
