Some Political-Biblical Issues

"O mighty King, lover of justice, you have established equity; you have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob."

 - Psalm 99

These concepts: equity, justice, and righteousness are in use in politics today.

The Left loves the word "equity."

Both love the word "justice", but it means different things to different people.

And the right loves the word "righteousness."

And that's the problem. Both sides have a handle on something important.

The problem is that neither side likes the other having the reigns of government, and defining the terms.

The Left does not want the Right defining "righteousness" and enforcing it. The Right is scared to death of what the Left means by "equity."

So the answer, for believers, is to pursue both within the Church, and in the community . . . and to stay out of politics where arguments ensue.

Let's have all three . . . in God's name.
