I am a Christ-follower, I serve the King of Heaven in every area of my life. I have been in ministry for over 16 years, after growing up in Mexico as the son of Baptist missionaries there. I love my country, and I believe that God has ordained the US for His use in human affairs for the last 200+ years.

I reach out to those around me when God opens a door, whether to share the Gospel or to offer heart-freedom through a deep-walking process through the Spirit of God. But as I watch the freedoms of Americans caught in the strangle-hold of greater and greater government regulation and oppression. When Christ said, ‘occupy’ to Hs disciples, he didn’t mean to hide in a church building and avoid the social, political, and moral issues of the day.

I grow weary of Evangelicals telling me the church has to focus on the Gospel alone and leave all the politics and culture fights to the world. You can’t spread the Gospel and not point out how the social and political morals are affecting people, that isn’t the WHOLE Gospel!

Politics and Religion don’t mix, they say…… and then proceed to claim every moral position that faith and religion speak to is now political territory. The encroachment of PC – nazis on everyday life is relentless. I say, if my faith does not inform my political and worldview, then it is a useless belief and is no faith at all.

So what drives people of faith in their political life? A burning understanding that there is right and wrong in the world, and that we will be held accountable. As I raise my voice to express my convictions, I am speaking personally and not as the church, but my convictions are informed by the faith that I live.

Living now in Las Vegas, surrounded by the very excess of fleshly living, we are carving out a corner of conservatism, social, fiscal, & national security. Nevada was a swing state that swung blue through Obamamania last year, and now we are lumped in with CA in the list of states about to reach insolvency. Way to go, kids! In 2010, we will swing to conservatism, not to red or blue, I am sick of politicians, give me a dude or chick who loves the country, gets the Constitution, and hates government, and I’ll vote for him(her) every time!

For me, the guiding principle is what the Lord told the prophet Isaiah:

“Wash yourselves and be clean! Let me no longer see your evil deeds. Give up your wicked ways. Learn to do good. Seek justice. Help the oppressed. Defend the orphan. Fight for the rights of widows.” Isaiah 1:16,17

If we’re gonna help the oppressed, we have to get the government off their backs!
