“Politics affects real life people because policy and politics affect the lives and rights of real live people.”

“The question becomes who tells us what right and wrong is and who is the authority who instituted the government and what is the government’s responsibilities?”

Because there are other biblical spheres of government (self, family, and church) we need civil government to give us freedoms to be faithful in those other spheres.
