“You are the salt of the earth.”
Biblical Civics 101
What has God called Christians to be and do in our culture?
“You are the light of the world.”
13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt
loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty
again? It is no longer good for anything,
except to be thrown out and trampled under-
foot.14 “You are the light of the world. A town
built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do
people light a lamp and put it under a bowl.
Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives
light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same
way, let your light shine before others, that
they may see your good deeds and glorify
your Father in heaven. (NIV)
When Christians are involved, it helps fulfill God’s purpose of
blessing America with Justice and Righteousness.
Isaiah 56:1, Proverbs 14:34

Isaiah 56:1, Proverbs 14:34
Matthew
5:13-16
Christians are to act as a preservative
in the world around them and
they serve as a guide/teacher to those
who do not know God and His ways.
In order to help fulfill God’s purpose
of blessing America with
Justice and Righteousness,
Christians must be involved in the
political arena.

keep us free. Are we willing to do
the same?
