From brethren.org:
Our denomination’s 1989 annual conference statement on Church and State says that “Christians and the church are called at times to speak a prophetic word to the state. When the state is doing things that negate and deny God’s will as revealed in Jesus Christ and the Bible, Christians must speak out, doing so in love and respect for those engaged in wrongdoing and those being wronged (Eph. 4:15). When the state is doing things which move in the general direction of God’s will and way (human well-being, justice and peace), Christians can give support and commendation.”
In this episode, listen to BVS’er at the Office of Peacebuilding and Policy, Galen Fitzkee, as he discusses reasons why Brethren should be involved in politics, his journey into the work he does now with the OPP, and how you can get further involved.
