Christianity does not follow one side of the political spectrum or one political party because Christianity bears witness to truth: the truth of Gods revelation, of Gods love, and the truth that Christ suffered, died, was buried, and rose again on the third day in payment for our sins. These are truths wholly independent of political issues, and they are the central concerns of any serious Christian believer.
