David uses a Scriptural metaphor to explain what he sees missing in the way Christians understand our times. And he explains how it has affected the approach to politics taken by both end-abortion-now advocates and traditional right to life advocates. At a fundamental level, they seem to be the same.

Today David explores how our times and a failure to understand them have affected the way Christians think of politics

The Effect on Christian Politics of Misunderstanding the Times

Today, David takes the next step in what we began to cover last week — what it might look like to be spiritually minded (Romans 8:6) in trying to apply the juridical aspects of the “law of Moses” to political issues such as the current push to criminalize abortive mothers. The spiritually-minded may find in today's episodes some consideration that make doing that harder than some might think it is.

Today, David takes the next step in what we began to cover last week &mdash; what it might look like to be spiritually minded (Romans 8:6) in trying to apply the juridical aspects of the &ldquo;law of Moses&rdquo; to political issues such as the current push to criminalize abortive mothers. The spiritually-minded may find in today's episodes some consideration that make doing that harder than some might think it is.

When God planted Israel as His choice vine, he gave them laws for ordering their society. Today, David offers two key considerations for trying to transplant those laws into legislation today.

Garden Laws

When it comes to legislation, many Christians look to the "law of Moses" to flesh out what is right and wrong and, increasingly, to determine what sanctions should be applied to certain wrongful acts. It is part of the "whole counsel of God," but is there a way to flesh out this law out that is "spiritually minded" vis-a-vis "fleshly" or even "carnally" minded? Today, David offers a context for thinking about those laws that he believes is spiritually minded, and begins to apply it to legislative efforts to "end abortion now."

Is there a spiritually minded way to think about the application of the juridical sanctions in the Mosaic Law to ending abortion?
