Omygoodness... No one is asking the government to be the Church. But I think we all want our government to be the government that wields the sword righteously to reward good and punish evil - that's all.

But just a few months ago, when our government was calling evil good and good evil, would we want the government to enforce it's own standards and definitions of good and evil? Of course not.

This is where the Church needs to be the Church, so that the State can be the State, by teaching and preaching what God says is good and evil, and relying on God for that message to do it's work in the hearts of our civil magistrates.

Working for candidates that affirm God's standards of good and evil is important as well. Political advocacy isn't always as brutal as most people think. Most of what I do is just plain fun anyway. Currently working with Article V Convention of States project in my little corner of South Georgia. I do so as a Christian citizen of a secular nation.
