Christians In Politics

Psalm 144:15 Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD.

I keep reading and hearing that Christians have no business getting into politics.  Many say that we should just stay out of it and mind our own business.  When I read or hear these things I think of what our nation would be like if that had been true.

Many of our early settlers would not have even come to America if they were not seeking religious freedom and I don't mean freedom from religion.  I mean that they wanted to worship in a way that they believed to be scriptural and were tired of being persecuted for it.

Our Declaration of Independence would never have been written in the way it was because it has several Christian references.  Our constitution would not have guaranteed us the freedom of religion that we are quickly losing without a strong Christian backing.
We probably would not even recognize our country if it were not for the strong Christian influence in our politics.  Even the most liberal of colleges were started as schools to train men for the ministry.  Sadly they have strayed far from the intentions of their founders.

My opinion is that when we take Christian influence out of politics we are destined to live in a country run by ungodly people.  I don't think that would make us a happy people.
