The State House Needs God, Too!
The following blog post is by Family Council staff member Luke McCoy.
Proverbs 29:2 (NASB) reads, “When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, but when a wicked man rules, people groan.”
If a world were described in which controversial, political topics that had religious basis were no longer a threat to people of faith, would you consider that a work of God’s people or Jesus’ second coming? For many centuries we have seen that when good people do nothing, evil prevails. It could also be said that when good men do nothing, very little good—if any—gets done.
So, why do so many Christians excuse themselves from influencing their local, state, and federal government?
