Description

In the midst of an international conflict, the discussion around war is being talked about in every circle. War is a tragic thing that almost always ends with lots of human lives lost. So how should Christians view war? Is it justifiable?

On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through biblical examples of war along with God's views on war based on Scripture. We talk through different rules of war and the reasons for war. Each war that has happened throughout history is very different from the next, therefore we can't paint with a broad brush, so to speak. By the conclusion of this episode though, our hope is that you have a more biblical perspective of war and how we ought to view it today.

The 17:17 podcast is a ministry of Roseville Baptist Church (MN) that seeks to tackle cultural issues and societal questions from a biblical worldview so that listeners discover what the Bible has to say about the key issues they face on a daily basis. The 17:17 podcast seeks to teach the truth of God's Word in a way that is glorifying to God and easy to understand with the hope of furthering God's kingdom in Spirit and in Truth.
