Summary	What is the nature of the church as an institution? What are the limits of the church's political reach? Drawing on covenant theology and the ""new institutionalism"" in political science, Jonathan Leeman critiques political liberalism and explores how the biblical canon informs an account of the local church as an embassy of Christ's kingdom.
