"Hate evil and love good, and establish
justice in the gate..."
(Amos 5:15)
Over the years, leading Presbyterians
have written perspectives concerning the church and politics. These powerful
articles have been used as resources and inspiration by Presbyterian advocates
to support their beliefs that the religious-based political work is crucial and
necessary. Use these Biblically-based essays for discussion in study
groups, mission or justice committees, or for individual reflection. |
