Politics and the Millennial Kingdom

K., an old friend, recently described people who talk on Christian radio stations as sounding like they believe that the Republican party is going to be what finally ushers in the Millennial Kingdom of Christ. He also said of the two parties (I am paraphrasing because I lost his email): one [party] is overtly evil, and the other covertly so.

I agree and I think that politics and national secular agendas are not the ultimate answer, or even the answer. Isaiah, the prophet, put it like this many years ago, Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket; they are regarded as dust on the scales; he weighs the islands as though they were fine dust.
