I believe that the real difference between the politician and the statesman is found in discovering the
place God has in that man's life. God spare us from men who make laws who have not truly submitted
themselves to the rule of the God of all law.
—Paul M. Stevens
"Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way
of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. For his delight is in the law of the Lord; and
in his law doth he meditate day and night." Psalm 1:1-2
When a politician goes into the ministry, it's like man biting a dog-it's news! But it does happen.
As a matter of fact, the ministry has a place for any man who discovers for himself that the laws of God
are eternal and unchanging. Making laws is a noble profession, but those who make laws, should first seek
the great lawgiver.
THE LAWS OF GOD ARE ETERNAL AND UNCHANGING
