So it happened, we have a new president of the United States. Many things will change but there is one thing that will always be the most important that never will.
As Christians, we have one mission and that is to spread the gospel. No matter where you live in the world or who is the president that will never change. The great commission is our marching orders and we have to remember it is in his hands.
The world is a pretty big place and there are quite a few people living in it. Around the world there are different types of government with different leaders, and they greatly affect the people that live in those places. Don't get me wrong, elections are a very important matter and they affect us all. Whoever comes into office will make decisions that decide what direction the country is headed in. We should all be concerned about who we vote for, but it is not the most important thing. The amount of time that we will spend on this earth is minuscule compared to eternity afterward. Sadly, there are very few people who realize this. Something else Christians must do, is respect the laws of the land as long as they do not conflict with God. Whether our candidate won this election or not, we have to respect it and keep our eyes on God. One of the worst things we can do is riot and destroy the property of those who cannot control the government.
Although this election was a very important event in our nations history, it is not the most important thing in our lives. Christian boundaries are not restricted to one nation. We have to remember to respect the law of the land that we live in and keep God in focus.
