What do we do?

Now given that it seems quite impractical for the nation to unify to one church until the Lord comes, what do we as christians do about living in a state that is slowly twisting its moral values in order to please everyone? Is it ok for us to sit back and pay taxes that will go, indirectly under the new health bill, to support things like abortion? Should we sit back and watch as it becomes accepted for gays to live perverted and completely immoral lives? The government is there to maintain social order and killing babies and allowing for men to live perverse lives together is not very orderly, and there are many other examples of twisted moral values found in the culture that are not only accepted, but endorsed by the government. So what can we do about it?

We can do everything in our power as voters to elect people that will hold to the morals we keep, but that wont be enough. If the government were to ban abortion it would cause social uprisings, not order. So I think the only thing we can do about it is to become leaders and strive to spread the word of Christ as much as we can. What we really need is a great awakening like the one in the 1700s. Our generation needs to rise up and make a change. But unfortunately we most likely wont have an impact that changes the world because its biblical that the world is a broken place and in all practicality, we most likely won't see unity among our nation until the Lord comes. But at that point it will be an unbelievable thing to see because every knee will bow. With that being said, we are called to strive for perfection, so we need to do everything we can to try to enlighten our nation with the knowledge of Christ. It definitely could use it.
