The three faces of conservatism

It has now been almost an entire year since America last went to the polls and, as we begin to look forward to the next election cycle, it would behoove conservatives to look within and do a little self-examination. While there have been many who have been proffering theories as to conservative losses, I have yet to hear any do so from a biblical perspective. True, we have heard of candidates uttering bits of scripture as they head into the fray, but using scripture to rally one group around a banner and the scrutiny of that banner by the scriptures are two different things. And just because a candidate or a cause seems spiritual, that doesn’t make it scriptural.
