In order for a large and complex country to thrive over time there
must be a consensus about the rules by which it is governed. An
elite, whether political or economic, that does not propagate and
live by a clear set of rules for behavior for all citizens soon
becomes corrupt and self defeating in its purpose. It is stuck in
an attempt to force harmony among citizens who observe that some
are more equal than others. The Christian model for citizenship has
been successfully applied across many cultures, even though never
perfectly. The Christian citizen, while subject to the laws of his
country and his culture, is first of all subject to the law of
Heaven as found in the Scriptures. This has been summed up by Jesus
as "Love God with all your heart and your neighbor as yourself."
Applied in the West and enshrined into laws this led to the rise of
capitalism and democracy which gave people a sense of value,
purpose, and the protection of the state applied with a degree of
justice. The rise of China as a major figure on the world stage in
the 21st Century means that China must operate under a Constitution
that applies to all parties in the social contract. The future
stability of the country is at stake. Christianity can do for China
what it has done in the past for the West. Christian citizens can
provide the vision for a just and harmonious society.
