The Bible contains the commandment: “You shall not kill!” Yet there are more and more wars. Christians, too, face the decision: “Can I become a soldier or a police officer? Doesn’t that contradict the prohibition against killing? And if I am treated unjustly, can I call on the police and secular courts for help? What, in fact, is the relationship between Christians and the state, between the Christian church and the government?”
This book seeks to answer these important and timely questions based on the Bible.
Dr. Lothar Gassmann is the author of more than 200 books on topics related to the Bible, politics, and current world events. He has written 32 Bible commentaries on the Old and New Testaments.
