Conservative to be Christian?

You don't have to be a conservative to follow Christ, and most conservative are followers of Christ. Your political stance has no impact on you salvifically. Some may argue that we are to chance in our political stance to a more conservative view because of our salvation, but this is not a blind stab. Every political stance has its christ like qualities, and they have their worldly qualities. Yet as Church we must remember that we are to seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set are minds on the things that are above. Col 3. Yet we are to seek the welfare of the city that we find ourselves in. Jeremiah 29.

So salvation is not based on your political stance, or views on health care, or if you are a fan of Obama. It based on the finished work of Christ and the holy spirits regeneration in your heart.

Temptation

Why does God allow us to be tempted? Why does God allow us to go through hardship? Why do bad things happen? If God is good why doesn’t he fix my life? All these questions come from a heart that is centered on itself and not on the things of God. When God made you it was not for you, but it was for himself. This is a very insulting revaluation for humans. We have been told that we are the top of the food chain, whatever we want we can get. We have taken the old catechism and changed it from “The Chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy him forever,” and turned it into the chief end of man is to glorify himself and enjoy himself for a little under 100 years.
We have lost our God centeredness and moved into a realm of man centeredness, where everything we chose to do is ordained on whether or not it makes us happy, or if it is convenient for us. We give no thought to whether or not I am doing what God has called me to do, and if the time I have been given is being used in a way that glorifies God. No our time is used in vain attempts to fulfill our own selfish hearts. When in reality the commands of Christ are not burdensome for those who love him. Just like a lover will cross oceans and mountains to be with the one whom he loves, we should be crossing our fences to share the gospel with the ones closest to us.
This is my battle, this is my heart, I forget to put God first, and me last.
