Here we are dealing with a rather ill-formed topic, on which there has not been a consistent viewpoint. This volume, based on the Eleventh Oak Hill Annual School of Theology, offers a conversation among those who represent a consistently orthodox evangelicalism, who see public life in relation to the Christian gospel in quite different ways, but who are committed to thinking biblically about the matter and coming to a common mind."--back cover  aChurch and the world  aChurch and state  aEvangelicalismxPolitical aspects  aEstablished churches  2ddccAM  00102ddc40708261 Social theology and interreligious relations and attitudesaMAINbMAINcOPENd2019-06-20l1o261.7/HIGp123511r2021-04-21 00:00:00s2021-04-19w2019-06-20yAM
