Run the Enemies of God to the River

By Joe Boot, John Cooper/ August 3, 2022

Series  Podcast for Cultural Reformation

Topic  The Church

Scripture  Revelation Revelation 1:4-7

This episode started out with John Cooper asking Joe Boot about pacifism, and became a wide-ranging dialogue on what it means to be an image-bearer of God, and the implications that reality has for war, self-defense, and living in a state that is hostile to God. We also discuss the descriptions of God in Scripture as a warrior and the fact that the obligation to give honour and obedience is always qualified except when it is due to God.
