R . Albert Mohler Jr., president, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary"Leeman provides a careful and theologically compelling treatment of the relationship between faith and politics... This book deserves careful consideration by any Christian who seeks to walk faithfully in the public square.” | John MacArthur, Grace Community Church“What has the church to do with politics? Is there a proper, biblically-informed relationship between church and state? In HOW THE NATIONS RAGE, Leeman exhorts the church neither to withdraw from nor to dominate the political sphere, but to represent heaven to a world in turmoil. What timely counsel, especially to the American church!" | Thom S. Rainer, former president and CEO, LifeWay Christian Resources“Jonathan Leeman has written not simply a good book, but an important book. Using the ever-deepening political divide in the United States as a starting point, HOW THE NATIONS RAGE exhorts Christians not to allow politics to rule our lives, but to allow God to do so... This volume challenges our presuppositions about earthly power, informs our hopes for the heavenly kingdom, and repositions the center of our political lives inside the church of Jesus Christ.” | Mark Dever, pastor, the Capitol Hill Baptist Church“As a pastor on Capitol Hill, I’m often asked what book I would recommend on politics for the Christian. Jonathan Leeman has produced a new standard. Well illustrated and engaging, this carefully reasoned book should be read in our churches before we come to an election year contest again.” |
