The November 3, 2026 elections deserve to be considered from two different perspectives: first, what has happened politically in America, and second, what these developments mean for the Church, the Christian community, and the future of biblical influence in our nation. I would begin with an important theological principle: The political condition of a nation is never the ultimate measure of the spiritual condition of God’s kingdom.

Scripture alone is. Too often, believers appeal to the conclusions of respected theologians, pastors, or scholars instead of demo
