About this episode

The episode discusses the role of nations in warfare and the divine authority behind government as ordained by God.

Individuals do not go to war; nations go to war: Nations send individuals who have been trained to fight in that war. We have an all-wise, Almighty, all-knowing God who has ordained government.
