Can We Be “Conservative” In the Teaching and Promotion of “Conservatism”
Defining the Conservative Posture
In these tense times that we are living in, the question to consider is if we can be conservative in the teaching and promotion of conservatism?
Our conservative opponents will define us if we fail to define ourselves. The Democrats define a Conservative as, One who wants to conserve the past, or as, One who is against change. This is a lie. True Conservatism is conservation of what God created.
Conservatism dates back to the relationship between God and man. So, what does a True Conservative want to conserve? Simply, the idea that our rights and freedoms come from God, and not from our fellow human beings.
The Enemies of Freedom
The enemies of freedom are hell-bent on removing God from the equation. Like their father, Lucifer, they desire to place themselves in the seat of the grantor of rights and freedoms. In contrast to Christian Conservatism, the Communists, the Socialists, and the Facists, who dominate Democrat party leadership, want the power to deny, amend, abridge, or destroy these same rights.
What About Conservatism and Christianity, Constitutionalism, and Capitalism?
When we teach and promote Christian faith, Conservative values, Constitutional limits, and Capitalistic opportunity (refer to my definition of “The 7 Cs of a Successful Society“), should we do so in a traditionally conservative manner (for example, mild-mannered, cautious, and polite)?
The enemy seeks to define Conservatives with a limited scope, and then knock down the definition. Democrat leaders attack our faith as a myth, our constitution as too old for modernity, and capitalism as mere greed.
In these tense times, Conservatives must not waver, but teach and promote conservatism aggressively and intelligently.
Can we continue to teach and promote Conservatism in our traditionally “Conservative” or “cautious” manner? Do the enemies of “The Christian, Conservative, Constitutional, Capitalistic, Coalition” promote their EVIL and ANARCHY in a cautious manner? Or, is their “Coalition of Evil” very BOLD and daring in their quest to remake society as an American version of China, or the former Soviet Union?
Why then, are we, who have been appointed as “Watchmen On The Wall”, not as bold and daring as our enemies?
