DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

  1. We as exiles and sojourners live in "two cities" (Augustine) : while being in the earthly city we also live in the Kingdom of God. 
    How do you successfully live in this earthly city without compromising your values and believe? Is it hard to do? Give some examples.
  2. Government is ordained by God and so we are required to submit to government laws and authority. Why is this sometimes hard to do?
  3. The role of government is to restrain evil and praise those who do good. Governments fail to do this.
    How do you feel when governments don't do what they are called to do? What are the repercussions? Give examples.
  4. What is one area that makes you angry when you read the newspapers of bad government?
  5. What do you resolve to do about it?
  6. Pray together for our government, for stability and a good leader to lead Malaysia
