Faith and Politics

Cal Thomas writes

Too many Christians think if they shout loud enough and gain political strength the world will be improved. That is a false doctrine. I have never seen anyone 'converted' to a Christian's point of view (and those views are not uniform) through political power. I have frequently seen someone's views changed after they have experienced true conversion and then live by different standards and live for goals beyond which political party controls the government.

Absolutely right. The world will not be changed by Christians gaining political power. The world will be changed by Christians preaching the gospel and people coming to a saving faith in Jesus Christ.
