Priestly Perspective on Politics
Our hope is not in political leaders, our hope is in God. And, as Scripture tells us, God puts in power “the basest of men” (Daniel 4:17); NOT the best of men.

The real “prize” is not political/legislative power/influence, the real prize is the uplift of Jesus (John 12:32). And to do this effectively we must love each other. So let us always AFFIRM GOD’S PEOPLE; yes, even when our philosophies clash.
When we have failed to distribute to the needs of orphans and widows who are part of the household of faith, it is God Who allows government to discipline us in giving our due.
Vote as you desire, but don’t be fooled: it is NOT the power of the poll that prevails.
…We must never put our trust in the strength or abilities of people/things. Like David, all believers must “remember the name of the Lord our God” and put our trust in Him.
