There is tension between the Heavenly and the Earthly .
But avoidance of Tension is not the path Christ has set for us to follow. He said there would be Persecution and Tribulation, and this would come because of our Witness for Him.
At the time Christ spoke about His Kingdom , it had not yet come. It came when He died and regained Dominion over the Earth . All Power in Heaven and Earth are now His. He is now King of Kings and Lord of Lords .
Politics is a manifestation of Spiritual values. We will Convert no one to Christ by Political action. However, we can make it possible for the Kingdom Work to continue in Freedom by Political , Economic , Social and, if necessary, Military action. America is the product of Christians who were not afraid of the Tension between the Heavenly and the Earthly .
