In the debate
among Christians about who should be the Republican nominee for
president, the discussion is unfortunately informed more often by
the Gospel According to O’Reilly and the Book of Limbaugh rather
than the Bible. I have therefore undertaken in this article to apply
Biblical principles to four issues that are under discussion in
this year’s presidential campaign, which are or should be important
to Christians, including foreign policy, life, education, and monetary
policy. I conclude that Ron Paul’s positions are by far the most
consistent with Biblical principles and indeed that the other candidates
have decidedly unbiblical views on these issues.
Before proceeding,
please note that I have entitled this article "A
Biblical Case…" because I am sure there are other applicable
Scriptures and perhaps other better Biblical arguments to make on
this subject, but I offer the arguments below in an attempt to help
my Christian brothers sort out to what extent the candidates conform
to Biblical principles on the four issues that are addressed in
this article.
