Liberationists, Anabaptists, Augustinians, neo-Calvinists, Radical Orthodox, and others continue to discuss the matter. What do we mean by politics and the political? What are the limits of the church's political reach? What is the nature of the church as an institution? How do we establish these claims theologically?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJonathan Leeman sets out to address these questions in this Studies in Christian Doctrine and Scripture volume. Drawing on covenant theology and the \"new institutionalism\" in political science, Leeman critiques political liberalism and explores how the biblical canon informs an account of the local church as an embassyof Christ's kingdom.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003ePolitical Church\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eheralds a new era in political theology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudies in Christian Doctrine and Scripture, edited by Daniel J.
