Gaining a Moral Majority

Many Christians show great passion when our religious freedoms are attacked. My zeal is stirred when the government tries to silence the voice of our religious freedom, especially when they obviously desire to muzzle Christians more than any one else. We have been receiving senseless, unconstitutional slander from our nations liberal thinkers and it is has awakened what some have called “the sleeping giant”… the church. “Sleeping giant” is a fun term to use because we like to think of the church as a giant, but to really own up to it is to admit to apathy and lukewarmness in the church. I believe that the political battles that we face as believers today are in part due to the spiritual battles that we’ve forfeited in past years through a lack of urgency with the gospel message. Christianity has always been a grassroots movement, and grassroots evangelism must remain our focus to win this nation back to Christ.

The government has never and will never be able change the hearts of people. In fact, we know that a democratic government merely reflects the hearts of the people. The recent election of Barack Obama was decided by the majority of our nations voters. Therefore we can be certain that the majority of our nations voters are more interested in self preservation and materialism than the preservation of innocent, unborn children and the sacred institution of marriage. God has proven time and again that He doesn‘t need a majority to accomplish His purposes. However, when it comes to setting the law of the land in a democracy, we need a majority. So our political battles will be won when Bible based morality is the majority in our nation. Majority means more people, more people, more people; this should be our cry. It has been the cry of heaven for thousands of years and goes beyond politics into the Heart of our Father. Likewise for us, it should go beyond politics as we grieve for the lost who need the Saving touch of Jesus that we ourselves are so thankful for. Jesus said…“the Kingdom of Heaven is within you”.
If the Kingdom of Heaven is in the hearts of men, than we cannot advance the Kingdom of Heaven without winning men's hearts.
