Government
Books on the topic of government and related topics. What constitutes proper, biblical submission to government authority, in obedience to Romans 13? On the other hand, what are the reasonable and biblical limitations on governmental powers?

We believe the rare selection of books we have on these topics meets a need today, to help the church think soundly on these matters.
