David Speights' Foreigners and Strangers - https://youtu.be/snBWB_DoJUs


Lyrics to "Foreigners and Stranger" by David Speights

We were born into a world of earthly kingdoms
Given to the god of war
But when you meet, the kingdom life of Jesus
You realize there's so much more

In days of old the kings said bow before their idols
True believers never would
So they were thrown into the fiery furnace
They followed God as so we should

Some would tell you that you ought to pledge allegiance
To a kingdom of this world
They say the flag represents our freedom
But that's not the freedom of our Lord

Jesus said to render unto Caesar
Just the things his image bears
But we belong to a different kingdom
The image of Christ is what we wear

Scripture tells us we cannot serve two masters
For we cannot love them both
We must choose what kingdom we follow
Let us serve the Lord of Host

Chorus:
We're here as foreigners & strangers
Living in a foreign land.  Oh yea.
We're here as followers of Jesus
Take a stand

The kingdoms of earth
They will not endure
The kingdom of God
is forever sure!

So choose you this day
Which kingdom you'll serve
Our Lord's promise stands
For all who endure

At its heart, AnarchoChristian is a deep and often challenging exploration of what it means to live a faithful life within-or perhaps apart from-the structures of earthly power. This podcast carefully examines the tension between ultimate allegiance to divine authority and the demands of modern political systems. Each episode delves into scriptural teachings and historical context, questioning how contemporary social and political "state worship" shapes, and often conflicts with, core Christian convictions. The conversation isn't about partisan politics, but rather a fundamental re-evaluation of where a believer's primary loyalty must lie. Through thoughtful dialogue and scriptural analysis, the host unpacks the radical idea of "No king but Christ," moving it from a historical slogan to a practical, daily consideration. Listeners will encounter a perspective that pushes beyond conventional religious-political alliances, inviting them to scrutinize long-held assumptions about citizenship, obedience, and kingdom. The AnarchoChristian podcast provides a unique space for those who feel that disconnect between faith and state, offering a rigorous, biblically grounded framework for navigating that complex relationship. It’s for anyone who has ever wondered if the demands of God and the demands of government can truly be reconciled, or if a more profound, scriptural separation is called for.
