so there’s a famous scene in the dialogue of John and Abigail Adams we know about it because they wrote about it and it is a a matter of history and John and Abigail Adams were there at their Farm which was about a mile from the coastline elevated overlooking the town of Boston in 1775 and John Adam said to Abigail Abigail you won’t understand these are things regarding politics and Abigail Adam said John politics Don’t Preach to me about politics I a woman deal with politics every day she said I deal with the
political ramifications of the price of food she said I deal with the issue of trying to get pinned for making clothing for the family IAL with trying to get things for this household to run so John Adams Don’t lecture me about politics I live politics Abigail Adams said and she was exactly right and John Adams and they’re standing by the way in the snow she said they were standing in the snow overlooking Boston and John Adam said Madam you’re harsh and she said sir I’m cold and she walked back into the house
Abigail was right no wonder why she’s considered one of our founding fathers but listen the truth of the matter is this politics affects everyone’s life the life of the church the life of your business the life of your income the life of your expenses your Liberties or not your freedoms or not your child’s education politics you’ll never avoid it unless you’re a fool if you say stay out of politics or if you say well we only preach the gospel well you ought to repent because after preaching the gospel you should
preach discipleship and discipleship is this being involved in whatever Nation you live in for the glory of Christ I happen to live in a constitutional republic that allows me to have great freedoms you might live in a parliamentary type of government in your country you might live in a communist Nation where it could cost you your life seek the will of God stand for what is right and listen just like Jesus did just like Paul did just like Peter did just like they all did they changed the Roman Empire and they changed the course
of human history and Let Freedom Ring how did that ever happen because if we have the Son of God in our lives he sets us free indeed and you my friend are free to whatever country you belong to to influence it for Christ you must if it’s voting if it’s speaking up for some even laying down your life to the glory of God we live out his truth until we see him face to face
