War - A Christian Perspective (Part 1)
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In this discussion on the Christian perspective on war, Steve Gregg acknowledges that not all Christians will agree on the topic, but stresses the importance of thinking about what God does rather than solely having personal perspectives. He explains that there have been four distinct eras in Christian history regarding views on war, and that early church fathers believed that violence, including self-defense and for the state, was against biblical teachings. Gregg emphasizes that though the Old Testament provides instructions for conducting wars, wars can be sinfully motivated and God's ultimate intention is to promote peace.
