Because Christ is Enthroned We Can Be at Peace

November 8, 2020 - Throughout the election season this year and even now we see how divided, anxious, fearful, worried, and opinionated we are as a people in this nation. Today we attempt to recenter ourselves based upon the most comforting and stabling truth. Jesus Christ is enthroned over the Kingdom of God; the Kingdom of our true and most important citizenship. St. Paul writes to us in Ephesians 6 that our fight is not against flesh and blood (against Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, and Independents). Our fight is against the principalities and powers of darkness and our battle is to put on the Lord Jesus Christ as our armor. And having put Him on, we intercede asking Him to extend His hand of perfect justice, mercy, judgment, and love. Our role is not political. Our role is intercession that hearts would be changed so that the politics of our entire nation are founded in the virtues of Christ.
