Forgiveness and Non-Retaliation in a Partisan World The Burning Word
-
- Christianity
In our fourth episode of our study of Revelation, we're going to look at Revelation 6-8 as begin to get into some of the bizarre and contested texts on judgement. Yet the question of judgement, leads us to God's vision for his people. What does it mean to hold these texts, while living in our highly contested partisan world of politics? How do we navigate the constant assaults, character assassinations, virtue signaling and cancel culture that accompanies our present political discourse? Do these texts of judgement offer us any vision of guidance for the people of God to follow the politics of Jesus in a highly contested partisan world? While these images may seem strange, they open our eyes to the world God is forming, intervening with, and redirecting, even as they cause us to pause over how we interact with our perceived enemies in this world. Check out our companion study available at www.burningwordpodcast.com/store and journey with us as we continue Revelation and the Politics of Jesus.
