"Righteousness exalts a nation..." Proverbs. 14:34
“Shouldn’t Christians join the major parties and try to influence politics from within the mainstream? ”We believe that the answer is “No”, and here is why.
Most people enter into politics with the desire to make a significant difference. It is, however, easy to confuse ‘activity’ with ‘doing something significant’. Jesus claimed that we can do nothing “apart from” Him. Unfortunately, British political parties have ignored this basic truth. They are not rooted in Christ and are therefore doomed to achieving nothing in God’s eyes, and thus ultimately produce policies and laws that do not serve us well.
For example, Communism was widely believed in the 19th century to be a good and fair philosophy, more or less in line with the teachings of Jesus Christ. But the foundation of Communism is atheistic humanism. As time went on, as sure as night followed day, that ungodly root led to such widespread evil and murder that almost nobody claims to be a Communist today. In the same way, liberal secular humanism has now clearly started to produce evil in our society and it will only get worse and worse unless together WE stop it. Yet all the other political parties embrace liberal secular humanism.
The Christian Party believes that there is a clear majority in the United Kingdom that treasures our Christian roots, even if they are not active church members. However, a hostile non-Christian liberal elite now dominates all the main political parties and want to destroy what is left of our Christian culture and legacy. READ MORE...
