Message: Who's Side Are You On?

As citizens of the Kingdom of God, we are called to a higher allegiance, one that transcends political parties, nations, and earthly rulers. In this series, "Voter Guide - Kingdom Allegiance in a Divided World," we explore what it means to follow Jesus, the Lamb who was slain, rather than aligning ourselves with the symbols of earthly power—the elephant or the donkey. Our allegiance is not defined by political ideologies but by the gospel of Christ.

This voter guide is not about endorsing candidates or platforms but about re-centering our hearts on who we are truly allegiant to: Jesus. Through each week of this series, we will journey through the dynamics of Kingdom citizenship and learn how to engage the world around us with a gospel-centered conscience.

In this journey, we will examine how the Lamb—Jesus, the King of Kings—guides us to live as faithful citizens of His kingdom while navigating our responsibilities on earth. Let’s be reminded that our vote matters, but more than that, our ultimate allegiance must be to Christ and His Kingdom, above all else. In our diversity, we find unity as we stand under the Lordship of Jesus, agreeing on the main thing: Jesus is King.
