But the laws of a nation determine the amount of freedom the people have and the level of persecution Christians will or will not face for spreading the Gospel. God can give His people the grace to go underground at some point and the boldness to speak up in the face of legal consequences, but is that the climate you want Him to move in when it can be prevented or delayed by your vote? Because at some point, the country will head in that direction if we keep voting in the direction the nation is voting. God can play a role in strengthening His people in persecution or moving the heart of a king, but we have our part to play, too. To sit back would be to allow a climate that is increasingly hostile towards Christians, and He can't fix that away with a magic wand.
