In this episode we discuss...

• Guns and Gun Owners in the Rural Church
  • Use Guns and Shooting Sports as a MINISTRY TOOL:
    • 1 Corinthians 9:19-23
    • If you are a Christian who really enjoys shooting and firearms, don’t hide your rifles and hoard your ammunition, use what God has given you to step through doors that he opens for ministry and Gospel sharing. 
  • Use guns according to the Law of the Land:
    • Romans 13:1-2
    • Scripture makes it clear that governing authorities are given their authority by a sovereign God. That doesn’t mean they are morally correct all the time or that you like what they have to say, BUT scripture does tell us we need to be in subjection to them. There’s a fine line there that we need to navigate.
  • Guns and Shooting Sports might be an American Right, but they can become a Christian Idol.
    • Exodus 20: 1- 2
    • 1 Corinthians 10:23
    • Colossians 3:3-4
  • Should we have guns in church?
    • If you do there should be a trained team.
    • They must be ready to practice observation and confrontation.
    • They must not be a distraction.
