Igreja Cristã Reformada RaízesO Cristão e a PolíticaA devoção a nossa cidadania celestial nos impedirá de incorrer na idolatria política.

Eric Voegelin fala em sua obra sobre o problema do gnosticismo que detecta o grande mal da humanidade na criação, levando seu oposto a assumir o papel de redentor.
Por isso embora reconheçamos as verdades levantadas pela graça comum por essas ideologias, rejeitamos suas absolutizações da vida.

We analyze the predominant political philosophies of our day, conservatism and progressivism, and attempt to understand what they are at their core. And at the end of the day, we attempt to tie it all back to worldview and discuss how politics is merely the outworking of your pre-existing beliefs about the world.
