The Bible and politics

[psalm40.17]

Is politics something we should be involved in as Christians? Is it ok for us to become partisan in a party sense ?

 

[TaterTot]

Yes, we need to be active in every aspect of live, public and private.

 

[gb93433]

We are involved in it whether we like it or not. Whether we vote or not, we are making a statement.

If we should be apathetic and not take a stand then we have taken a stand. If we choose to take a stand then we may have others who will follow. So we need to always be careful of the stand we take either by apathy or by making it public.

 

[Archei]

Christianity condemns, outrightly condemns behavior which is heartily approved of as a plank position of almost every memeber of a certain political party which will remain unmentioned.

How can we be anything but involved?

 

[Brother Ian]

We absolutely must be involved.
