Common terms, like conservative and liberal, with traditional meanings may not mean the same things today. Still, there are definitions of conservative even the liberals have to accept because they are unchanging. Just as some want to abandon the term conservative, many Christians wanted to stop using the term “born again” that was popularized by President Jimmy Carter. It was evident, however, that it was wrong to abandon a term which has clear Biblical meaning (John 3:3, 5). Why would we let the world rob us of our most valuable terms?
Being a conservative Republican American is the greatest title anyone can have. It is simply not possible to be a Democrat and a Christian because if a Democrat becomes a Christian he will cease to be a Democrat, and if a Christian becomes a Democrat he will abandon his faith. A careful survey of Christians who practice their faith finds most are conservatives.
