South Africa is drawing closer to powerful global partners like Russia, China, and Iran. But what should Christians think about these alliances? In this episode, we explore the moral and spiritual questions behind international politics. Scripture reminds believers to pray for rulers and seek the welfare of their nation—but also to exercise discernment about the company nations keep. Are these alliances merely economic strategy, or do they signal deeper moral alignment? We discuss freedom, authoritarianism, the place of Israel, and why Christians must evaluate geopolitics through a biblical lens. Ultimately, our hope is not in East or West—but in Christ, the King who rules over every nation.
