What God says about politics

Posted on 03/23/2006 4:11:14 PM PST by free_life

Ecc 10:2 A wise man's heart directs him toward the right, but the foolish man's heart directs him toward the left.

Ecc 10:3 Even when the fool walks along the road, his sense is lacking and he demonstrates to everyone that he is a fool.

"Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's." There's kind of an assumption there that the things that concern Caesar don't necessarily concern God.

And vice versa.

That is soooo funny. I had to look it up to see if it was really there. I love it.

I've always taken note what Psalm 24:1 says, "The earth is the LORD’s, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein."

"Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's."

What belongs to God? Everything.

What belongs to Caesar (goverment)? Nothing.

I sort of doubt that Hillary, who's taken a liking to preaching about the Bible lately, will mention:

Ecc 10:2 A wise man's heart directs him toward the right, but the foolish man's heart directs him toward the left.
