God, Guns & PoliticsA Controversial Political Opinion God's house is becoming the sacrificial mouthpiece for politicians. Why it's wrong, and what you can do about it. My father, a minister, was appalled in the way that politics had advanced its way behind the pulpit. In all the years of hearing him preach, I can say with a clear conscious that not even once did my father use the pulpit to promote his staunch political beliefs. He was too busy talking about the love of God to do such a thing. Why Promoting Politics in God's House is Wrong The house of worship is intended exclusively for that - for worshiping our Maker. Although many religious institutions have noble aspirations in mind when it comes to politics, there is grave danger lurking under the Tapestry of Politics that has the power to demolish the freedom of religion that we so enjoy. Promoting a particular politician may pose ill consequences as Believers tend to have a trusting nature. However, many times an individual yearning for political power will often say anything in order to reach his kismet. And once there, things can rapidly deteriorate, in turn destroying the very thing that we so-loved and cherished. Although there is currently a separation of church and state, the church continues to shine in the limelight where politics are concerned. And with more and more precedence being given to this issue, there presents an unfortunate opportunity for backlash. If you find that your sanctuary is locked in the battle of political correctness, I would highly advise you to speak with your clergy about this important issue. Take the privilege of voting in hand and vote how YOU want to vote. At church, Believers are Believers, and should not be perceived as a political base. Although there is much power in numbers, the ultimate power rests within our God. Another issue that has troubled me greatly where politics are concerned is the issue of guns and God. On one hand we have Believers praising God, and in an instant they can revolve into a killing mood. I don't know everything, but I do know that peace in the past has been accomplished with many guns and bombs - and that peace has also been accomplished without them. And we must ask, which method is best for life? More Political Commentaries at Tickle Feather Look, Let's Be ClearThe two, most popular phrases used when politicians become cornered.
