Can a believer get involved with politics? (Part 8).
Continuing to answer the questions.
Someone can question: “And, what about those who are involved in the political, judicial and police system? Can they be saved?”.
Of course: Jesus’ salvation is opened to everybody:
• Joh 3:16 -> “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”.
Nevertheless, there is a condition to go to Jesus to receive it:
• Mat 11:28 -> “Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”.
That is to say: only those who tired can come to Him. Tired of what? Tired of all the lies preached by the political and religious system (Babylonian System); tired of living in order to promote and enjoy the things and methods that this system offers.
Jesus was clear: we can’t have two masters (Mat 6:24); or we serve the sin, or we serve the righteousness:
• Rom 6:17-22 -> “But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed, and, having been set free from sin, have become slaves of righteousness. I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification. For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. But what fruit were you getting at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life.”
Or we follow Jesus and His word, or we will be following some of the methods of Ha-Satan, which can have similitude of lamb, but speak like dragon (Rev 13:11); can look like piety, but deny its power (2Tim 3:5).
In short: to them become followers of Jesus Christ and being saved, they will have to stop:
• judging (Mat 7:1; Luke 6:37);
• supporting in the wisdom of this world (1Cor 3:18);
• using weapons which only can kill, rob and destroy (see John 10:10).
In other words: they will have to give up their job and invest in another career.
Someone can question: “And what about our vote: in whom should we vote? In a “Jesus servant”, or in a Ha-Satan’s servant?
If it is to choose someone, it is better a Ha-Satan’s servant because, thus, the name of Jesus won’t be belittled and put to shame when the Jesus’ follower is corrupted by power, bribe, fame, wealth, etc.
If it was to Jesus’ followers to ingress in politics, Jesus would have left an example or enjoined it. By the way: all the Israelites, including the apostles (until the day of Pentecost), thought that Jesus would be an emperor like king David. They couldn’t perceive that the kingdom of Jesus is spiritual, within our hearts (Luke 17:20-21).
This was one of the reason because Jesus was rejected by the Israelites: being descendant of the king David, they thought that Jesus would go to do a revolution, annihilate the Roman Empire and make of Israel the capital of His worldwide kingdom.
What that people couldn’t figure out (and, until today they stays with understand – at least the majority) is that the true and most cruel captivity is inside (to give in to the sin).
So, have a good day staying free from this cruel master (the sin) and praying and watching, as Jesus said:
• Luk 21:34-36 -> “But watch yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a trap. For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of the whole earth. But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.” ”.
The truth is that, don’t mind who will be elected, the New World Order (the kingdom of the antichrist) is inevitable and only guarding the *word of Jesus’ patience endurance* we will be kept from the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world, to try those who dwell on the earth (Rev 3:10).
