To find the politics of God involves a completely different approach to both scripture and politics than most of us are accustomed to today. God is not a Republican. He is not a Democrat. He has a value system and philosophy far above the bickering polarization of this world. And what is most important is that He wants us to find it! 

This second part of JB Shreve & the End of History’s introduction to the politics of God contrasts the life and death politics of God’s Word against those of this world. In this episode, JB Shreve builds the framework that we will use for the rest of the podcast series when exploring different modern-day political issues and finding what the Word of God really says about them.

The politics of this world, no matter the party, no matter the governing system, always turn to corruption and death. That is what scripture teaches us. The politics of God are something very different though, because they come from a different source. 

Listeners are invited to join us in this podcast series for an intriguing journey that will help you see scripture in a completely new light. Not only is the Word of God relevant to our political issues today, but God is also extremely interested in His people engaging with the world around them on the basis of His Truth. The Politics of God is neither Republican nor Democrat. It is the principles and ethics of a Kingdom that knows no end and never compromises with this fallen world.

In our next episode of the Six Years that Made the Middle East, we look at 1979. In the aftermath of the Six Days War, the 1970s saw the rise of a new element to the chaos we know today – extremist Islam. Far from common before 1979, most resistance and protest in the early decades of the modern Middle East  was performed through the framework of politics and political resistance. That changed in 1979.

This episode looks at the rise of Khomeini in Iran and the Islamic Revolution there. We see the rise of Arafat among the Palestinians, the war in Lebanon, the rise and fall of Sadat in Egypt, and more. This is part 4 in our series, The Six Years that Made the Middle East.
