WHAT NOW? Faith and Politics; A Post-Election Message

DOES GOD CARE ABOUT POLITICS?  And should Christians be involved in the political process?  Many Christians pray for God's Kingdom to come, but they do so with an ESCAPIST MENTALITY, hoping that Jesus will come back and rescue them from the decay we see around us.  But Jesus told us to "OCCUPY" until He comes back, which means to be busy working advancing His Kingdom, bettering mankind, and effecting societies and, yes, even governments.  In the aftermath of the most historic Presidential election since Abraham Lincoln, Christians now have the opportunity to affect sociey in a way not seen since the Emancipation Proclamation, and we cannot blow this chance God has graciously given us.  This teaching explains a little of what our mindset should be going forward after the Presidential election.
