Christian Influence on Society
Today’s world is faced with many tragedies and challenges. For those Christians who live in genuine democracies, there is a good chance of influencing outcomes.
Under Royalty it is usually the rich who dominate and under dictators it is the ruthless and militarily strong who prevail. But in democracy it is those who speak up, who guide government thinking. It is true that in Australia it is the ultra rich big business corporate leaders who decide much of what is done by governments.
However that is only because they speak up personally and with highly paid professional lobbyists and with large political donations. Every Australian adult citizen gets 1 vote in each election. They outnumber many times the voting power of the Big Business Corporate leaders.
The need for ideas suggestions & solutions
It is a case of speaking up with good ideas, suggestion and solutions. The key is to get them to every Member of Parliament. For the past 40 years thousands of Australians have persuaded governments to do what those Aussies wanted. It did not matter whether it was personal like an urgent operation in hospital or public like keeping Hornsby Hospital open. Though the government wanted to close it down and sell the land, Christians helped to keep it open. They all used Votergrams, the unique political persuasion tool modelled exclusively on Christ’s teachings. Votergrams, developed by a Christian Australian family can be accessed at www.votergrams.au with email enquiries to team@votergrams.au.
This is the essence of Christian influence to help shape a Christian society. Please play your part by using this NFP service to influence your governments.
