In this episode of Poking the Bear, Pastor Matt Kenitzer dives deeper into the provocative discussion of monarchy as a form of government, drawing insights from 1 Samuel 8 and responding to Auron MacIntyre’s recent podcast, Is Democracy the Only Biblical Government? Pastor Kenitzer explores the biblical foundations of governance, examining the three offices Christ fulfilled—Prophet, Priest, and King—and their implications for theocratic principles and the role of nations. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that challenges modern assumptions about democracy and unpacks the scriptural vision for righteous leadership and societal order.
