What Does the Bible Say About War?

About this episode

Kevin and Josh discuss the implications of just war theory and the responsibilities of Christians regarding foreign conflicts.

Should Christians support foreign wars in places like the Middle East, or refuse them? Kevin and Josh examine just war theory, civil authority, and whether Christian families should support their sons fighting in foreign conflicts. Who bears the responsibility for determining a just war—the magistrate or the individual conscience?
