In the Foreword of my book, I try to make it abundantly clear that as Christians, protesting government intrusion in our lives, whether it be higher taxes or burdensome policies, must be done peacefully. As a Christian, it is my responsibility to be subject to governing authorities, but it is also my right as a part of the governed to question decisions made by government officials that endanger constitutional and inalienable God-given rights.

As Proverbs 29:2 accurately states, “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.” The love of correct principles, not the love of a party, is the key to effective political involvement; the government of this nation will be blessed only to the extent that God-fearing and moral individuals are placed into office.

Benjamin Rush

He was our first president. He was voted into office unanimously. He was a devout Christian. He led the Revolutionary War against Britain and won. He offered freedom and property to slaves who fought in the war. He refused pressure to become king. He did not belong to a politi- cal party, and he sternly warned us that excessive allegiance to a political party would lead to corruption.
