As Christians, our faith should not be in the Government or anything else for that matter. It should be in CHRIST and Christ alone. People need to seek the Lord for help. He is our provider. The Bible tells us as Christians to help the poor, widows, orphans, and people in need. This is NOT the responsibility of the govenment. It is the churches responsibility. However, the church (all denominations) have slacked off and been too busy building their own Kingdom instead of the Kingdom of God. Many pastors are NOT shepherding they are hirelings and don't care for the sheep unless they can benefit them. I believe this is a dangerous place to be. If we want to see transformation in the Government -it must begin in the Church. Individual Christians need to start being the church and give to people in need instead of trusting the institution to do it for them. Many pastors are living in million dollar homes while families in their church are hurting. This is sickening. The body of Christ must wake up and stand up for righeousness. We cannot vote for people out of selfish motives. We must put God Fearing people into office that are there to serve not be served.
