dc.description.abstractThis article investigates the challenges facing the Dutch Reformed Churches in the South African liberal democracy. It is premised on the fact that the Dutch Reformed Churches are confronted with a new context that places the church in a position to continue its work of bearing witness in the new dispensation. Part of this reflection involved seeking out the Biblical principles and guidelines that Christians would have to take into account in association with the new political order.en_ZA
