Believers in government should surround themselves with other believers. God governs those that follow Him. It guarantees civility. They should appoint fellow believers to work with, and do whatever it takes to abolish affirmative action. The color of one’s skin does not reveal what’s in one’s heart. The only affirmative action believers should pursue is the eradication of evil behavior. And employing other believers is a start.
25 “And you, Ezra, are to use the wisdom your God has given you to appoint magistrates and judges who know your God’s laws to govern all the people in the province west of the Euphrates River. Teach the law to anyone who does not know it. 26 Anyone who refuses to obey the law of your God and the law of the king will be punished immediately, either by death, banishment, confiscation of goods, or imprisonment.”
Ezra 7:25-26
