Ayers Is No Education 'Reformer' - WSJ.com


Ayers Is No Education 'Reformer' - WSJ.com: "[Commentary] David G. Klein"

Christians do not put their trust in Government (or at least should not), they put their trust in God. They trust in God leading and directing them individually and personally. Maybe this is why many Christians have such an aversion to socialism and big government.

Can Christians live and thrive under socialism or even totalitarian communism? Sure. Our true citizenship is in the Kingdom of God (righteousness, peace and joy - to list a few. But when we have a choice, we prefer the kind of government that stays out of the way and allows us to follow God as He directs - individually.

When Christians support such socialist, nanny state type movements I always wonder where their trust is placed.

When Christians fear and panic at the prospect of oppressive government I likewise wonder where or upon whom are they placing their trust.

But seeing we seem to have a choice, being informed before making that choice is advisable.
