Oct 5 & 6 - Political Jesus

CLCDayton Weekend Sermons

Pastor: Jordan Hansen

Series: Citizens (1)

Title: Political Jesus

Date: 2024.10.05+06

---------------------

DESCRIPTION:

Pastor Jordan explores the intersection of faith and politics, arguing that true hope and trust should be placed in Jesus, not earthly institutions. He examines Jesus's early ministry, highlighting how Jesus used politically charged language like "the gospel of God" and "the kingdom of God" to challenge the prevailing Roman Imperial cult and redirect people's allegiance to God's authority. Pastor Jordan then outlines practical tips for Christians to navigate the political landscape, emphasizing integrity, discernment, and prioritizing Christian values over national pride or political ideologies. He concludes by recounting the life of Chuck Colson, a former political figure who found redemption through faith, illustrating the transformative power of the Gospel even in challenging circumstances. As Colson said, "Christians should never have a political party. It's a huge mistake to become married to an ideology."
