No form of human government can ensure peace, and the reason the word 'human.' People have a carnal nature that always brings them into conflict with each other.

For good or ill, John Winthrop's 'city on a hill' imagery has come to pass in the United States — but the light it is emitting is feeble at best.

A democracy only works when the citizenry are moral and capable of governing themselves, neither of which the current citizenry possess.

The United States is not a democracy (that is, popular or "mob" rule) but instead a representative republic in which citizens elect representatives.

Because it is not directly mentioned in Scripture, people often ask if voting is biblically condoned. The real question is, would Jesus vote?

Are we living in such a manner that will incline God to bless us with good leadership rather than curse us with leadership that will lead us astray?

Government unions are unwilling to sacrifice, but feel that their pay is an entitlement. Do we also feel that we are entitled to God's blessings?

In America, where the political process is hailed as free and democratic, it is considered somehow "un-American" not to vote whenever the polling stations open.

Americans, having by and large lost both their morality and their sense of vigilance, now stand on the verge of losing the republic.

Young US and UK citizens favor authoritarianism due to their over-protected childhoods. Does this desire for a strongman presage the coming of the Beast?

Once the electorate understands it can "get something" from the government, democracy will disintegrate into self-centered coalitions, grasping for handouts.

God has power over all governments. Because all power ultimately derives from God, we should not presume to take the authority to raise up leaders.

Change agents in the United States are engaging in a deliberate assault on free speech, which the Founding Fathers protected through the Bill of Rights.

Donald Trump is not a paragon of virtue but is a change from the doctrines entrenched in Washington. Personal morality is not enough to remove anyone from office.

What is globalism? Where is it headed? Does it have a balancing counterpart? Who is driving it? What does it have to do with the prophecies of the end time?

Sometimes God's most effective judgment is to give His people what they want and let them suffer for it.

Every human government that has ever existed, including the American constitutional republic, has been flawed because it has not looked to God for what is right and wrong.

Globalism, as it comes in contact with tribalism, often causes conflict because the two systems are incompatible. Such a collision is prophesied.

Globalism is a fact of our age, but what ideas undergird it? Most of globalism's underlying principles have their origins in the Israelitish peoples.

God's people cannot yoke themselves unequally with the philosophy or politics of the world. Invoking God's name is not equivalent to obeying Him.

Every form of government fashioned by carnal human beings, including democracies and constitutional republics, are riddled with fatal flaws.

Because all things will be violently shaken, God commands His people to place their trust in the unshakeable Kingdom of God which will displace all empires.

The media bears responsibility for our downward spiral through marginalizing the conservative majority. It presents a warped reality, and gradually makes it stick.

Liberty cannot exist without morality, or morality without faith. Today, humanists are destroying God's 'simple gifts' that made America exceptional.

The 'Nones' have risen to prominence in society, ideologically committed to abortion, radical feminism, homosexuality, strict gun control, and socialism.

God's people (as ambassadors and pilgrims) must pledge their hearts, minds, and allegiance to the coming Kingdom of God, which will last forever.

Jacob's prophecy in Genesis 48 promises that Manasseh will be a great nation. One nation in today's world is the unmistakable fulfillment of this prophecy.

It is far more important for God's called-out ones to be ready than to know the time of Christ's return, an event to which even He is not privy.

Globalism is a force to bring about widespread dispersions of peoples before the end to bring about 'the time of Jacob's trouble.'

Major curses, including economic oppression, famine, pestilence, mental illness, alien invasion, the scattering of modern Israel are yet to occur.

True peacemaking means emulating Christ, which that involves promoting justice and righteousness, not merely avoiding conflict or appeasing by compromising.

Too many feel that they are above the law, but paradoxically, laws proliferate when corruption prevails. We must be subject to all law, God's and man's.

Many believe that history is progress—that mankind, along with his nature, governments, and technology, is on an inevitable course of advancement.

In a culture which glorifies war heroes and winning at all costs, becoming an ambassador to peace is perhaps the most elusive goal we could ever accomplish.

We are not privy to God's, but we must realize that He has the prerogative to impose both blessings and calamity, the latter in response to disobedience.

Like the gullible German public in the time of Hitler is the equally gullible American electorate, oblivious to the calamity which will soon befall them.

Our attitude toward government must be one of submission. The church cannot perform its function without the cooperation of the carnal civil governments.

All worldly institutions will be shaken, including America. Only the everlasting word of God and ultimate establishment of the Kingdom will never be moved.

God has freed us from the bondage of sin, the breaking of His law. Liberty comes only from obeying God and accepting the positive yoke of Jesus Christ.

Today, as in Solomon's time, we can become discouraged and weary about the corruption in government, especially the evil corruption of the courts.
