Voice of the Day: Martin Luther King Jr.
The church must be reminded that it is not the master or the servant of the state, but rather the conscience of the state. It must be the guide and the critic of the state, and never its tool. If the church does not recapture its prophetic zeal, it will become an irrelevant social club without moral or spiritual authority.

That is exactly what Francis Schaeffer was getting at in his book How Then Shall We Live? God's truth gives us the authority to speak truth to power on all issues. Christ is sovereign over all.>
