Who is in charge?

To find out who is charge we have to decide what is the purpose of being in charge. If we what to know who is in charge of our souls we have to determine what deity controls out souls. Also we should determine the priority we should give to what ever deity we feel is more important to our souls.

In the case of most Christians the answer is simple. Our souls belong to the one and only God that created the universe about thirteen and a half billion years ago. Everything else is temporary because we are going to be on the earth for a fraction of a second compared to eternity. If one is not a Christian one does not believe in an eternal life and only makes decisions on the life now and maybe their grand children’s lives.

Our government should take into consideration the beliefs of in majority of its constituents which is now the members of a Christian nation. Whether that majority go to church or not is not the question right now. We are a nation founded on Christian principles. Our Declaration of Independence which our nation lost many lives over and the Constitution of the United States confirm who we are and why we revolted against England.

Our present actions in our federal and state governments are clearly not living up to the principles for which our four fathers fought and died. Now we have extremist that tried to take over our capital on January 6, 2021 with the claim that they were doing what they consider the right thing to do. This incident shows how low are principles have fallen.

As a Christian we must fight our way back by voting for men and women that believe as we do that they have shown by their actions. We often vote on candidates by what they say they are going to do and discount what they have done wrong. Basically people don’t change the way they think unless they are hit with a new realization or they are paid to change they ways. That may not change their minds, but it can change what they do.

This is not a complicated problem. Right and Wrong is always simple. It is the gray areas we have problems with. If we find ourselves in a gray area all we have to do it find another answer to the question we are trying to solve. Amen?
