The Tea Party movement in America, and to a lesser extent, other countries, has been one of the most significant responses to out-of-control government in decades, if not since the formation of the republic.
With that in mind, and the Tea Party not going to go away, we'll talk of many of the issues associated with the concerns which birthed the Tea Party. We'll also look at those who have joined or identified themselves with the movement in hopes of co-opting it or using it to further their individual political career and power.
As to the Lord Jesus Christ in these matters, like the Church, His eternal purpose is to fill all things with Himself, so it is impossible to be a believer pursuing Christ and not be salt and light in various arenas of life, including government.
But it's who Christ is that matters, and even though there are outward manifestations of Christ in all areas of life, it must be kept in mind that it is what is being worked within us; that is of primary importance, and not the secondary practicalities emerging from Christ in us.
In other words, hopefully the Tea Party will keep its heart and soul and not focus primarily on the outward, but what it was that spontaneously launched it in the first place.
I'm not saying, by covering the Tea Party, that it is in any way, shape or form, something initiated by Jesus Christ. It's too early to tell what direction it's going to take, and it could very easily be derailed very quickly, causing it to lose much of its purpose, power, and attraction. What I am saying is it has potential, and we'll follow the ebbs and flows as events unfold.

===============
God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow ... And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
