The Lord comes before all, even in who we vote for in political elections. His priorities ought to be our priorities.
Yet does this mean one should only vote for a Christian candidate “publicly committed to scriptural principles of civil government,” or not vote at all? That is a main thesis of an RPCNA booklet, Christ Centered Voting.
Travis Fentiman, MDiv, the webmaster, has written 64 Theses on the Ethics of Civil Voting where he shows that the above limitation is contrary to Scripture and defends the due extent of God-glorifying voting according to the will of God for the purpose of making further reformation in our land.
Whatever your perspective is now, the theses will be challenging to you. May iron sharpen iron and cause us to grow in the knowledge of the Lord’s things, that we may be faithful to Him even in the matter of voting.
