Rendering to Caesar and God in civic life
Clarence W. Cranford argues that the wall between church and state is not a separation from life. He cites Jesus in Luke 20 19 25 and Romans 13 1 7 to show duties to both God and government, urges voting and civic participation, and notes faith must be personal and free from coercion. The piece contrasts early nonconformity with modern political image building and references President Johnson’s public presence.
