It takes a careful look at the religious and particularly political ideas of the Nonjurors, a sect that argued for the moral foundations of a State and the sacredness of moral obligations in public life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author explores the origin of the uniting of church and state - how it all started and the results of allowing a government to dictate in any manner how an individual should worship. Where does our allegiance to God end and out allegiance to government take over? Christian loyalty is a necessity to true worship of God. But certain individuals would have you believe there must be laws to control the thoughts of humanity and legislate them into heaven. Today, with Sunday laws once again creeping into our government, we need to fully understand the issues at stake. You cannot force a person into heaven, yet we may allow ourselves to be forced out of God's presence.
Book Synopsis One Nation Under God by : Kevin M. Kruse
Download or read book One Nation Under God written by Kevin M. Kruse and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2015-04-14 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The provocative and authoritative history of the origins of Christian America in the New Deal era We're often told that the United States is, was, and always has been a Christian nation. But in One Nation Under God, historian Kevin M. Kruse reveals that the belief that America is fundamentally and formally Christian originated in the 1930s. To fight the "slavery" of FDR's New Deal, businessmen enlisted religious activists in a campaign for "freedom under God" that culminated in the election of their ally Dwight Eisenhower in 1952. The new president revolutionized the role of religion in American politics. He inaugurated new traditions like the National Prayer Breakfast, as Congress added the phrase "under God" to the Pledge of Allegiance and made "In God We Trust" the country's first official motto. Church membership soon soared to an all-time high of 69 percent. Americans across the religious and political spectrum agreed that their country was "one nation under God." Provocative and authoritative, One Nation Under God reveals how an unholy alliance of money, religion, and politics created a false origin story that continues to define and divide American politics to this day.

Book Synopsis Church, State, and the Crisis in American Secularism by : Bruce Ledewitz
Download or read book Church, State, and the Crisis in American Secularism written by Bruce Ledewitz and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1947, the Supreme Court has promised government neutrality toward religion, but in a nation whose motto is "In God We Trust" and which pledges allegiance to "One Nation under God," the public square is anything but neutral -- a paradox not lost on a rapidly secularizing America and a point of contention among those who identify all expressions of religion by government as threats to a free society. Yeshiva student turned secularist, Bruce Ledewitz seeks common ground for believers and nonbelievers regarding the law of church and state. He argues that allowing government to promote higher law values through the use of religious imagery would resolve the current impasse in the interpretation of the Establishment Clause. It would offer secularism an escape from its current tendency toward relativism in its dismissal of all that religion represents and encourage a deepening of the expression of meaning in the public square without compromising secular conceptions of government.
Book Synopsis I Pledge Allegiance by : David Crump
Download or read book I Pledge Allegiance written by David Crump and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it really mean for Christians to live as faithful kingdom citizens in today’s world? Bitter partisan conflict. State-sanctioned torture. Economic injustice. Ethical corruption. Even a cursory glance over daily news headlines shows a stark contrast between the American political state and the kingdom of heaven. Where, then, does the Christian’s ultimate allegiance lie? In I Pledge Allegiance David Crump issues a clarion call to Jesus’s twenty-first-century disciples, stirring them up to heed God's word and live out their kingdom citizenship here on earth. Closely examining the ethical teachings of Jesus and his apostles in the New Testament and using real-world examples to illustrate the vital issues at stake, Crump challenges Christians to embrace the radical, counterintuitive, upside-down way of Jesus—a way of living and thinking that turns the world’s values on their head, smashes through stale political and cultural conventions, and welcomes God’s kingdom into the very heart of our shared society.
Book Synopsis Church-State Issues in America Today by : Ann W. Duncan
Download or read book Church-State Issues in America Today written by Ann W. Duncan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-12-30 with total page 841 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Church and state issues are in the news now more than ever before. Political and religious leaders alike are negotiating shaky ground as they balance their religious/moral and political perspectives with their roles as leaders. New technologies push the boundaries of moral consensus by creating new controversies such as those involving stem-cell research and medical measures to sustain or end the lives of the terminally ill. The Supreme Court continues to work to clarify the fuzzy line between religion and politics as it addresses cases regarding abortion, school prayer, and the Pledge of Allegiance, among other issues. Further controversies only lead to further divisions among Americans. Church and state issues are in the news now more than ever before. Political and religious leaders alike are negotiating on shaky ground as they balance their religious/moral and political perspectives with their roles as leaders. New technologies push the boundaries of moral consensus by creating new controversies such as those involving stem-cell research and medical measures to sustain or end the lives of the terminally ill. The Supreme Court continues to work to clarify the fuzzy line between religion and politics as it addresses cases regarding abortion, school prayer, and the Pledge of Allegiance, among other issues. Further controversies only lead to further divisions among Americans. At the beginning of the 21st century, there are as many interpretations of this separation as there are interpretations of particular issues such as abortion or school vouchers. This three-volume collection summarizes the history and current status of issues involving the separation of church and state through chapters examining the backgrounds, relevant constitutional concerns, and variety of perspectives on specific controversies. Framed by a general discussion of the history of the separation between church and state and through careful attention to subjects such as capital punishment, gay marriage, and clergy support of political leaders, there emerges an incredibly complex, enlightening, and provocative picture for anyone with an interest in the unique nature of religion in the United States of America.
Book Synopsis Church and State by : Geoffrey C. Harrison
Download or read book Church and State written by Geoffrey C. Harrison and published by Norwood House Press. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the basic principles upon which America is based is the freedom of each person to worship as he or she pleases. That has made the United States a magnet for religious refugees for more than two centuries. However, it has done little to eliminate conflict and controversy over religious differences. "Church and State" examines the influence of religion on government—and government on religion—stopping at key moments along the way to examine the great debates in a nation founded on the idea of keeping them apart. Young readers will discover that the arguments taking place today are amazingly similar to the ones that have fanned the flames of passion for generations. "Church and State" engages young readers and provides them with the context and history needed to join the debate on these issues...and ultimately issues the challenge to Find Your Voice. Aligns with Common Core Language Arts Anchor Standards for Reading Informational Text and Speaking and Listening. Text contains critical thinking components in regards to social issues and history.

Book Synopsis CHURCH, STATE and CITIZEN by : Emmanuel Ihim
Download or read book CHURCH, STATE and CITIZEN written by Emmanuel Ihim and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-04 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Church, State and Citizen is a biblical-based approach for political engagement, which challenges Christians to always give their ultimate allegiance to God in the public square. It is a very insightful and useful resource and contains immense biblical wealth and practical experience on the vital issues relating to the Church, State, and citizenship. This book is a worthy investment of time and resources. I encourage you to join the author in this book on his eventful historical explorations, theological reflections, moral juxtapositions and healthy analysis of the experiences of great men and women who, through the prudent engagement in politics, were used by God to reshape the ungodly cultures, renovate their socio-political landscape, and reform the decadent structures of their societies. Emmanuel Ihim brings a fresh theological breath into the art of Christian political engagement and introduces a special revelation upon the dynamics of limited government, God's sovereignty, the legitimacy of government, the value of human dignity, God's concept of Christian citizenship, Church and state, and more. Ihim unravels why Christ did not give the State the key of the Kingdom and with it, His redemptive power, but instead, gave it to the Church, neither, did He give to the Church, the sword and its coercive power, but gave it to the government.Church, State, and Citizenship expounds on the invaluable responsibility of the Church to teach the Bible as a common standard of law, both to the Church and State; mobilize forces of compassion, courage, truth, and justice to salvage society; expose sin, equip believers, encourage the magistrates and embolden God's vision for humanity in society.Emmanuel Ihim unfolds biblical cornerstones and practical realities for Christian political engagement, which include, discovering Biblical TRUTH on the subject of politics and governance; developing basic biblical principles as policy tools for operating in the public square and linking these principles with basic complimentary moral values, as they ties into the political and social realities of the time. Church, State and Citizen clarifies the puzzles surrounding Church and State and contend that the Church and State's independent status is mutually exclusive. He describes it as an institutional separation that has an interface between religious faith and civil government. Emmanuel Ihim argues that the spirit behind the separation of the Church and State is to guarantee that, neither the Church nor the state unnecessarily meddles with each other's affairs, but that they coalesce to balance and preserve each other. Ihim explores the theological misconceptions and misinterpretations of Biblical Worldview of government and adequately resolves many controversial questions about Christian political engagement, proffering solutions upon which Christian political engagement should rightly be predicated. This Book challenges the apathy of Christians to comprehend the value of political power and its relationship to our "cultural mandate" and our "commission to disciple the nations." Ihim rejects passivity, for this is equivalent to culturally surrendering to satan, both the Lordship of Christ over all spheres of life and the dominion status that God gives to His children. It is tandem to rendering to Caesar both what belongs to Caesar and also that which belongs only to God.Church, State, and Citizen offer a practical guide for Christian political engagement and highlight some benefits of Christian political engagement, including, how it: *Secures the Bible-based structure for our society and government*Ensures that only Individuals of character and integrity are elected in public office*Nurtures democracy, religious freedom, sanctity of life and civic pleasantness for the propagation of the gospel*Demonstrates and builds upon the Lordship of Jesus over every sphere of life and society.
Book Synopsis Gospel Allegiance by : Matthew W. Bates
Download or read book Gospel Allegiance written by Matthew W. Bates and published by Brazos Press. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is faith in Jesus enough for salvation? Perhaps, says Matthew Bates, but we're missing pieces of the gospel. The biblical gospel can never change. Yet our understanding of the gospel must change. The church needs an allegiance shift. Popular pastoral resources on the gospel are causing widespread confusion. Bates shows that the biblical gospel is different, fuller, and more beautiful than we have been led to believe. He explains that saving faith doesn't come through trust in Jesus's death on the cross alone but through allegiance to Christ the king. There is only one true gospel and one required response: allegiance. Bates ignited conversation with his successful and influential book Salvation by Allegiance Alone. Here he goes deeper while making his acclaimed teaching on salvation more accessible and experiential for believers who want to better understand and share the gospel. Gospel Allegiance includes a guide for further conversation, making it ideal for church groups, pastors, leaders, and students.
