Some Christians subscribe to the notion that government becomes a problem when it usurps biblical teachings.Josheb, Jesus said render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's. Today's enlightened, compassionate, humanistic governments ( i.e. Caesar) have, in their great prosperity, made the decision that health care is a human right.
Our government, sadly, influenced by big corporations and greedy lobbyists, have greatly exacerbated poverty and inequality in America. But because we have a democracy, we can choose to render our time and talent to "Caesar" to make our country a model of justice and fairness.
They are seemingly unable to see that Christians have WON over the GOVERNMENTS to do God’s bidding!
It’s like they fear to own the victory that it is, choosing, rather to continue the “big government is BAD” mantra!
