What is the biblical perspective of politics? Or more broadly, power games in general? Christ wasn't a conqueror so what does that mean for apprenticing under him? I know there is Romans 13 about submitting to the wirldly authorities but that mean it is un-Godly to pursue an office of authority over others?
Along similar lines, are we called to be leaders? In what capacity?
