Patrick Henry was spot on when he called for the American people to be ever vigilant to the abuses of an overly aggressive and ever expanding government. The Constitution of this nation has two enemies. There are those who abuse power, and there are those who refuse to protect it from those who abuse it.
Religious Liberty must be secured by courageous Christian citizens who understand they hold dual citizenship. They know this world is not their final home. It only serves as God's Waiting Room. Still, Jesus told His followers to be salt and light in it.
"As He is, so are we in this world."
I John 4:17b
Government is not a man-made curse. It is a gift from God. "We the people" are not the owners this government, but as citizens we are the stewards of it.
Ignoring a gift from God, leads to the abandoning of the responsibilities that accompany His gift. The price of Liberty requires paying attention. Christian citizenship is expressed by two simple, yet powerful acts. They are: "Registering to Vote" and "Voting Christian Convictions."
Pastors! Pay attention. Lead your people to show up and vote to STAND UP for Religious Liberty!
