Publisher's Synopsis
Should a Christian care about politics?Plato once said, "The punishment which the wise suffer who refuse to take part in the government, is to live under the government of worse men." The reality is that Christians MUST play a role in politics. As citizens of this great nation, Christians have a responsibility to point to the principles gleaned from God's Word.The Political Conscience of the Christian is a guide for anyone seeking answers to the most pressing political questions. It uses God's Word, America's founding documents, Supreme Court cases, and other scholarly writings to guide the reader as they prepare for the voting booth or any other part of civic life.
