 Legal Rights involve Responsibilities .

We have been delinquent in defining and enforcing the Responsibilities of American Citizens .

 Jesus told us to render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar`s and to God the things that are God`s.
<p>
America was given to Christians by God.  So, America belongs to Christians. 
<p>
By participating in the political system (as corrupt as it may be) a Christian is rendering to Caesar the things that are Caesar`s.  That participation should manifest by voting, by supporting specific candidates and by running for office.

What are the ~things of God ~?  The testimony of Jesus Christ.  Healing the sick.  Setting the captive free.  Preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom.  Making disciples.  Manifesting the Spirit of God.
<p>
So, we have a corrupt earth of which we are temporally citizens and we have a perfect heaven of which we are eternally citizens.
<p>
Being a good steward of God means addressing both citizenships in balance.
