Capitol Ministries Weekly Bible StudyThe Biblical Case for Defending Israel | Part 1Given what’s happening in Israel, I think it is timely to provide this two-part series on Israel—from a Bible teacher’s perspective.Can you immediately and cogently reason from Scripture why America should be committed to Israel? By way of introduction, I believe that in a reaping and sowing sense America has wonderfully prospered because our cultural foundation stems from all that Israel has historically provided us relative to pertinent scriptural truth. There is no doubt the biblical truths borrowed from historic Israel have provided the cultural moorings for historic America. One might summarily call this our ph...2023-10-1524 min

Capitol Ministries Weekly Bible StudySlaying the Sin of SlanderAmerican elections are way too nasty. Political ads and campaign speeches are filled with attacks, condemnations, criticisms, verbal assaults, unproven accusations, and even false charges that candidates from all major political parties— including incumbents—lob at each other. Our Constitution guarantees us free speech, but that right should never be taken as a license to slander. Like falsely yelling “Fire!” in a crowded theater, slander is not protected free speech. We now live in a highly loquacious, instantaneous, intractable mediated culture, and a cowboy named Steroidal Slander is on the loose. When the character of another is involved, he’s qui...2023-10-0126 min

Capitol Ministries Weekly Bible StudyThe Faulty Theology Underlying Christian NationalismSecular journalists, liberal theologians, and bloggers have recently concocted the term “Christian Nationalist.” With a broad brush they are branding many well-meaning Christians serving in public office with this newly coined pejorative in an attempt to marginalize their influence in the public square. What is a Christian Nationalist? Is every Evangelical in office a Christian Nationalist? What do the name callers mean when they charge you with this? By painting—increasingly all—public servants who trust in Christ for their salvation as “Christian Nationalists” they hope to cripple your influence, instill fear in the voting populous, silence Christians, eradicate bi...2023-09-1743 min

Capitol Ministries Weekly Bible StudyThe Preeminence of LoveWithout love as the center of your faith, your trajectory in office will be less than it could be otherwise. For you to be influential, your spouse, family members, and colleagues must know in their heart of hearts that, first and foremost, you are a loving person. Paul states in the opening portions of 1 Corinthians 13, without love I am nothing. What then are the defining aspects of love that both you and I need to be continually working on and growing in? This study will take a close look at this element to consider.2023-09-1126 min

Capitol Ministries Weekly Bible StudyHow to Resist the Schemes of the DevilThe Scriptures tell us to Be strong in the Lord and the strength of His might.

It follows then, that understanding the various schemes of the devil is a consequence of being strong in the Lord. Put another way, if you are not spiritually discerning and understanding of Satan’s ways then you are...2023-09-0329 min

Capitol Ministries Weekly Bible StudyUnderstanding the Separation of Church and StateThe Bible clearly teaches that today there is to be an institutional separation of Church and State. To think otherwise is to believe in a theocratic or sacerdotal form of government. What the Bible does NOT teach—and what the secularist would like to say the U.S. Constitution supports—is an influential separation of Church and State. However, such thinking is not supported in the Constitution or the Scriptures.2023-07-3020 min

Capitol Ministries Weekly Bible StudyWhy Believers Should Be Involved in PoliticsWhile some churches teach that believers should be involved only in evangelism and abstain from a career in politics, that’s not what the Bible teaches. “You are the salt of the earth…” and “You are the light of the world…” (Matthew 5:13, 14) indicate that all believers are to have a here-and-now influence in addition to evangelism and discipleship.
