What We as Christian People Must Now Do

In the wake of the election of Donald Trump as our new president-elect, we as Christian people must commit ourselves to doing what we have always been called to do:

To give honor to whom honor is due, including our recognition of Mr. Trump as the democratically-elected president of all of us.

To pray for Mr. Trump and all other elected officials, asking that vice may wane, virtue wax, and wisdom prevail.

To bless and not curse.

To, in the words of the ancient Prophet, "Seek the peace of the city."

And where there is injustice or inequity, to be a voice for the voiceless and a light in the darkness, speaking our spiritual truth to worldly powers.

As people of faith it is our solemn duty to render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's. May we observe both ordinances with the character and conviction worthy of our Lord Jesus Christ.

And may it begin with me.

~Ryon Price, 2nd Thoughts
