The church is political. Theologians have been debating this claim
for years. Liberationists, Anabaptists, Augustinians,
neo-Calvinists, Radical Orthodox, and others continue to discuss
the matter. What do we mean by politics and the political? What are
the limits of the church's political reach? What is the nature of
the church as an institution? How do we establish these claims
theologically? Jonathan Leeman sets out to address these questions
in this Studies in Christian Doctrine and Scripture volume. Drawing
on covenant theology and the "new institutionalism" in political
science, Leeman critiques political liberalism and explores how the
biblical canon informs an account of the local church as an embassy
of Christ's kingdom. Political Church heralds a new era in
political theology. Studies in Christian Doctrine and Scripture,
edited by Daniel J. Treier and Kevin J. Vanhoozer, promotes
evangelical contributions to systematic theology, seeking fresh
understanding of Christian doctrine through creatively faithful
engagement with Scripture in dialogue with church.
