The Two Realms and the Separation of Church and State (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780758679741)

In this concise book, learn about the Lutheran teaching of the Two Kingdoms: the Church and the State. From Rev. Dr. Joel Biermann, readers will understand how to distinguish the two kingdoms and their roles as they interact with each other in the world. Pulling from the Lutheran Confessions and Scripture, by the end, readers will understand their role as both a citizen of this world and a Christian.

About the series:

This series takes up contemporary topics in faith and culture, helping Christians understand the challenges they face and interact with them faithfully. Volumes fit into one of two categories. The first category, Apologetics: Confessing the Christian Faith, addresses contemporary issues in the church's interaction with the world--especially those that leave the Christian at odds with societal trends and assumptions. The second category, Polemics: Confessing the Lutheran Faith, contains entries that teach Lutheran doctrine and bring it into conversation with American Christianity. Contributors are experts in their fields and are known for their insight, confessional integrity, and clarity of writing.
