Christians And Politics by tctrills: 8:55am On Jul 11, 2022
I make this post so that all Christians would realize that it was we Christians that made the world a better place.
I use to tell people that if Jesus Christ came today and not 2000 years ago, he wouldn't have been crucified.
Thanks to Christianity we now have freedom of speech and civil rights.
This was fought for by Christians in Europe and America.
Slavery was stopped by Christians. Before then, every religion believed it was right to enslave other human beings.
Christians have made the world better and safer than it had ever been.
So please don't forget your Christian values as you vote and choose candidates to support.
We are the religion that made the difference.
We are the light of the world.
Without us, the world would still be in slavery. There would be no human rights and man would be of little worth.
Thanks to Christian nations the entire world is a better place.
Never forget who we are and what we have given to the world.
The blood of many good men have been shed to bring light to the world.
Involve yourselves with the politics of the time and always stand for what is best.
We do not live in a perfect world but we do make it better.

This coming election, I would not ask you to vote for Christian leaders rather vote for the best person's according to your conscience.
It is a sin to knowingly vote for evil men just because of tribal sentiments.
Let all Christians queue behind good and just men according to our best judgement.

Yet according to Jesus Christ, the Christ in Christianity, there are no such Christian Nations, Christian leaders, etc. undecided

Your votes cast for men and systems of this world have absolutely nothing to do with God since that which you do you do as people who live in this world and not as citizens of the Kingdom of God. So how did you react the conclusion in bold? undecided

Your vote cast has so much to do for the betterment of mankind. Anything that makes your life and that of your fellows better is God's plan.

Who send you betterment of mankind? The same Jesus Christ that said He came to save only a few and not the many? undecided

I think you err against God when you pretend your votes have an impact of sorts on His plan and goal as far as His Kingdom. Cast your votes instead as citizens of this world would. undecided

When good men are in power the people rejoice. Jesus Christ taught us to do good to other hence we need leaders that would do good.

All good is the same. Abraham Lincoln ended slavery, that was good, it blessed lives.

Jesus taught us to give to the poor. We need leaders that lift the poor not those that step on the poor

Jesus Christ didn't say our giving to the poor was dependent on the schemes of the leaders of this world though. It didn't matter the economic situation in the land when Jesus Christ fed thousands with bread and fish. undecided

But Jesus Christ didn't end slavery yet He blessed lives. Are you saying what He did is the same as what Lincoln did? If so, why bother with Jesus Christ at all? undecided

Unless you believe it is right for a man to force his fellow man to serve him and live under his orders, then you must agree that these Christain leaders did great things. God is very proud of them.

What does that have to do with the topic. Good leaders make the world a better place.
You are able to preach your gospel in peace and safety because someone fought for religious freedom. We need more men like that.

Is it good to embezzle pubic funds?
Is it good to help the masses?
Is it good to improve standard of living?

Are you saying that you don't give a damn if people are enslaved?
You don't care if people are starving?
Do long as you are allowed to preach your gospel, you are ok, let the people suffer?
