The King Who Took Too Much
Today’s sermon is about government.
“Pssst!…What’s he gonna say about THIS?!…I mean in polite company, you shouldn’t talk about religion or politics…BUT the worst thing is to MIX the two!…Why can’t we just have a safe little Advent sermon?”
Well…fear not…this will be an Advent sermon…but also…BE VERY AFRAID…the Bible’s MAIN IDEA is a political idea…it’s about a form of government called MONARCHY…the Bible’s central theme is the Kingdom of God…and the promise of SHALOM.
Let’s look at it:
1) NON-Shalom
2) SHAM Shalom and
3) TRUE Shalom
