Vocal Point-Dr. Jeff Myers

Topic: God Is the Source of Our Rights.

The birth certificate of America is the Declaration of Independence. The Constitution is predicated on the Declaration, which says that our rights come from God. Where did the founders get such an idea? Ultimately, they can be traced back to the Biblical teaching that God has made us in His image. God loves humanity so much that He sent His only Son to provide salvation for all who believe, at the cost of His own life on a cross. But today many in our society are somehow under the delusion that our rights come from the state, not from God. Dr. Jeff Myers is an evangelical leader who runs Summit Ministries in Colorado, which is dedicated to helping young people develop a fully orbed Christian world-and-life view. Dr. Jeff Myers joins Jerry Newcombe to discuss how critical it is that we realize that God is the source of our rights. www.summit.org
