Many pastors have been asked lately, "Is COVID-19 the judgment of God?" That's a complex question, and this week, Pastor Lutzer gives his answer. We pray that this video will help you to process and think biblically about the current situation we are facing both nationally and globally.
It is clear that the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy will be—and already is—tremendous. But could this move us in the direction of a far more concerning outcome? And will we as Christians stand firm in our convictions even if the consequences are serious?
Life is uncertain. Nothing exposes this more than the crisis of COVID-19. And yet, God is completely in control. Do we trust Him even in the midst of this pandemic?
Some think that religion and politics shouldn't mix. But politics and morality are often intertwined—and so we as Christians must adhere to the truth when politics impinge upon Scripture.
As believers, we are one in Christ—not because we share common interests, but because we share a common life! And this bond far transcends any political opinions or disagreements.
As Christians, it is crucial for us to recognize that the flag of our nation—or any other nation—must be subservient to the cross of Christ. This is especially true at times when the cross is in opposition to the flag.
The theologian Augustine wrote about "the City of God" and "the City of Man." When it comes to politics, we Christians are citizens of God's city. But we are still called to play a role in the city of man.
In the invisible world, Satan stands to accuse us day and night. But, praise God, Jesus also stands to defend us 24 hours a day. Romans 8 assures us of this marvelous truth!
