Why There Is Never A Flight 93 Election For Faithful Christians by Lyman Stone

Why There Is Never A Flight 93 Election For Faithful Christians

Now, particularly in this Advent season, faithful Christians basically have one, and only one, eschatologically important task: wait! There is no further war to fight. Christ is coming back, and when he does, it will be like bringing a nuke to a knife-fight. There’s just no contest against the agent of all creation.

For a Christian, there are no stakes in a cosmic sense for anything we observe in the news: Christ will come victorious. Our job is to endure in hope, and share that hope with others.

This is a necessary correction to my personal temptation to become overly invested in politics.
