Reasons for Christian Involvement in Politics
1. Christians are citizens
2. Matthew 5:13 commands Christians to get involved with what’s going on around them and even through-out the world.
3. Families and individual lives are affected by those in power/leadership
4. Human morality and our legal systems are affected.
5. Our society’s vulnerability is linked to our leadership.
6. Political leaders can affect our laws which in turn will affect citizen’s behavior and attitudes.
7. Follow the example of our founding fathers.
These are just some of the reasons Christians should get involved in the political system. With the elections just a few days away ALL Christians can and SHOULD get involved by voting.
I think that is not just a right to vote, but our duty to vote in order for our God-given nation to keep moving forward. If you don’t vote then someone will make that vote for you.
For example, if Christians don’t stand up and fight for the Roes vs. Wades Law to be overturned, then more and more people who God has destined to change the world will not be able to do it. Christians can NO LONGER BE SILENT. Our nation needs to be changed back into a land where God can dwell freely among His people. Raise your voice and vote! |
