Unity Through Principle

A Plea for Peace, Truth, and Focus Among Christian Activists

Envision the American situation. The Constitution, the pinnacle of centuries of republican toil and the supreme Law of the United States, is disregarded. It is incessantly steam-rolled under the fancies of political machinery, only to be occasionally picked up and dusted, and its' supposed virtues of democracy and "We The People" lauded and complimented.

There is almost constant taking of life through abortion and the effects of gun laws, millions of children being indoctrinated in Evolution and sinful behavior, and the economy on the verge of collapse due to our system of false weights and measures. And, thousands of activists are ready to work, but nothing happens. Instead, they sit on the sidelines, oohing and ahhing at how big the battle is. Worse, many become restless and take sides on petty issues. Why?

The truth is, those who love freedom and morality must stand up for principle. There must be a common goal among us.

The Ron Paul campaign is a prime example of how people from every philosophical and doctrinal position can unite behind one purpose: to restore individual rights as given by the Creator, not the State. While perhaps misdirected on some issues, Ron Paul's supporters demonstrated the kind of passion which needs to be displayed for winning souls to Christ, ending Federal control of education, stopping the national ID card, and every other cause with Biblical foundations.

Another example of successful co-operation and focus is that of two creation science ministries, Answers In Genesis and the Institute for Creation Research. While these organizations are completely separate, they are finding ways to work together to proclaim the message of God's Creatorship. These groups are getting results. Among other achievements, their efforts are catalyzing the emergence of a large network of people who believe in reforming America. Ideas are beginning to be ignited and solutions worked out with their basis in a truly Christian worldview.

So, what is to be done? In order to see results, we must first acknowledge that God's Words are the inerrant, preserved, final authority. We must hold to the fundamentals of the faith and the U.S. Constitution, not attacking each other on secondary issues. Finally, we must be willing to break with any traditions, churches, political parties or other groups which are working contrary to these goals.

We must be willing to let God work in us, and we must take action creatively for His principles. It is then that we will see our freedoms renewed, and our Republic restored.

Envision the American possibilities.
