Why Should We Care About Politics If Jesus Is Coming Soon?
Why should we care about the worldly realm of politics if Jesus is coming again soon?
This is a good question because it goes to the heart of our role in the world as followers of Jesus Christ. Jesus told us to be “in the world, but not of the world,” and the political realm seems to reek of worldliness. You might say it is a swamp.
Having served in a legislature at the state level, I can report that Charles Dickens’ description in “A Tale of Two Cities” applies to the political realm. As in war, you can witness both the altruistic self-sacrifice and the utter depravity of man.
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.” – Charles Dickens “A Tale of Two Cities”
Nevertheless, we cannot relegate this sphere of human endeavor to Satan and his minions. The repercussions of decisions made and policies enacted in the political realm impact every person within a jurisdiction. And so, if we are to be salt and light in this darkening world, we must stay engaged and wield influence in this arena. Even as I say that, our goal is not to be a mere voting block or interest group, but to act as conduits of the Holy Spirit wherever He leads us to serve.
It is obvious that Bibleprophecy impacts the political realm with forthtelling and foretelling. The ancient prophets often directed their charge to the king in power. Samuel called out and then rejected Saul, Nathan called out David, Jonah preached to Nineveh and the king was led to repent. In the New Testament, John the Baptist called out Herod the Tetrarch, speaking truth to power despite the risk to his own life.
