Political and Social Issues

Submitted by michael on Sat, 05/17/2008 - 01:11

Christians have all kinds of different political beliefs and persuasions today. Christians also adopt different views on many different social issues.

These things can be discussed, but it is not wise for anyone to insist that it is necessary to hold certain political views in order to be right with God.

In many ways, these issues are secondary to the Christian, because Jesus said, "My Kingdom is not of this world". Many problems in the history of the church have come about when people have forgotten this, and have sought to bring the Kingdom of God into this present age through political action.
Already, there will be some Christians who disagree with this last statement. This section of the site represents my views, I cannot guarantee that they are God's views, as my perspective is limited.

Does that mean it is totally unimportant to talk about politics and social issues? No, it does not, because God has something to say in all areas of life, including public life.

It is important to know that God is interested in upholding TRUTH and JUSTICE (but not necessarily THE AMERICAN WAY as the line goes in the Superman comics "fighting for truth, justice and the American way"). I'm sorry, but God is not an American, and just because something is American does not make it right. I think most Christians would agree, for example, that just because the Supreme Court in America says a woman has a right to kill her unborn child, and more recently, the fact that the Californian courts have ruled that banning homosexual marriages is "unconstitutional" does not mean that God approves. But the disagreements that God has with American ways don't end there.

As Christians, we have to take sides with God even when it is unpopular. To refuse to do so is to make an idol out of something - perhaps, popularity.

I am aware that writing on politics and social issues will not win me support with all readers of this website. I can live with that. What is important is that we grow in our faithfulness to represent the mind of God in ever increasing ways, so as not to disgrace and discredit the gospel in the eyes of many thinking and reasonable people. Sadly, this has happened again and again in church history, weakening our witness in the world.

Dear Brethren,

I am not a prophet or a seer but as a child of God I have been praying and seeking to understand God's prophetic word and to have understanding. I want to report some links concerning the IMPENDING LOSS OF LIBERTY THAT AMERICANS WILL SUFFER. Please listen to the link below and bring it before God. You can skip the first 10 or 15 minutes of this clip if your time is short. You need to hear what these brethren saw and ask God if these things be so.

Green Tyrany - fear based politics for the New Age of Double-Thinkers

I'd like to recommend the article at the link below:

http://regularfolksunited.com/index.php?tab=article_view&article_id=2723

It suggests that the world is surrendering to a scenario where you can no longer say what you think if it is not what the New Ruling Elite want you to think.

That is to say: if you don't at least pretend to embrace "gay marriage", "radical environmentalism", "religious pluralism", the agenda of the United Nations and things like that, you are in danger of being locked up, sent to a labour camp, or executed. read more »

Home Bible Studies illegal soon in the USA?

Submitted by michael on Sat, 05/23/2009 - 08:50

The rate at which a full on persecution of Christianity in America is being prepared is on the increase. World Net Daily reports that a San Diego pastor is being threatened with fines for holding Bible studies in his home. Here is how things work. Instead of outright banning of something like Bible studies in your home, the government demands an expensive permit process to go on. read more »

Dream about Australia received on the 24th of December, 2001

Submitted by marilena on Mon, 05/11/2009 - 09:46

In this dream, the times were such in Australia that for 'good reason' the government had some kind of army on the streets apparently to protect us. In the dream, I was living in a certain home, it was night, and I went for a walk by myself (which I never do in real life) and Michael, my husband, remained home. read more »

Obama's Youth Brigades - Church Involvement Forbidden

Submitted by michael on Thu, 03/26/2009 - 07:46

Is this the change you really voted for? President Obama has only been in office for two months. Now we have HR 1388. The Bill was sponsored by Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY) with 37 others. The Bill was introduced to the floor of the House of Representatives where both Republicans and Democrats voted 321-105 in favor. Next it goes to the Senate for a vote and then on to President Obama.

This bill’s title is called “Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education” (GIVE). It forms what some are calling “Obama’s Youth Brigade.” Obama’s plan is require anyone receiving school loans and others to serve at least three months as part of the brigade. His goal is one million youth! This has serious Nazi Germany overtones to it. read more »
