We often hear that there is no command saying, "Thou shall vote." That is true, but does God ever say anything about political participation? Was Jesus involved in the politics of His day?
Neither Wesley nor TJ was sure, so we brought in Neil Mammen, author of Jesus is Involved in Politics (his answer is in the name of the book) to talk about it.
Jesus lived in an era when the leading politicians were also religious leaders. Therefore, when you read in the New Testament about the conversations He had with Pharisees and Sadducees, you are also reading about Jesus getting involved in the politics of His day. He did not shy away. He called leaders out.
But how can we follow that example? That is what we spend 13 minutes talking about.
