The Christian Patriot By Motte

"The Christian Patriot" by Mellish Irving Motte originally delivered at the South Congregational Church, Boston, July 5, 1840. Psalm 144:15 "Happy is that people whose God is the Lord." Edited by James Jordan. Motte describes how private morality and public politics are inextricably linked in our system of self-government. Christians and politicians must make political opinions based on what is morally right, and not act in narrow self-interest or party interest.
