Conscientious Objections (Evening Program)

This special evening program from 2004 takes a thoughtful look at the Biblical basis for conscientious objections to politics, jury duty, and military service. Brother Steve Davis explores why disciples are called to remain separate from the affairs of this world and place their trust in God’s coming kingdom rather than in human governments. Through careful use of Scripture, listeners are shown how allegiance to Christ shapes the believer’s conscience, leading to a life guided by mercy instead of judgment, peace instead of violence, and faith in God’s authority rather than the shifting powers of men. Real-world examples and historical insights underscore the urgency of understanding and upholding these convictions, especially in times of national and global turmoil. The program closes with a moving reminder that faithfulness in these matters may require sacrifice, but it is a testimony of loyalty to the Father and to the example of Jesus.
