The TEI Political Alliance seeks to informally network Christians in state representative districts, rooted in intercessory prayer, and from there to participate in local, state and national politics, based on the ethics and strategies outlined in First the Gospel, Then Politics...

The TEI suggests these components:

1. Network with like-minded Christians according to the state representative district in which you live.

2. Meet periodically (monthly, bi-monthly) in private homes or businesses, for prayer, worship, celebration of the Lord=s Supper, and strategic planning.

3. Participate in TEI educational and ministry opportunities as available.

4. Meet individually with all elected officials and political candidates, as possible, from school boards up to state and national levels. Bring to them the initiatives listed here and solicit response:  

    9 The Civil Society Alliance

    9 A Political Affirmation

    9 A Political Party Platform Based on Biblical Ethics.

    9 Resolution #1: The Creator, Science and Public Education.

    9 Resolution #2: Human Abortion and a Process of Informed Choice.

    9 Resolution #3: Human Abortion and Male Irresponsibility.

    9 Resolution #4: Human Sexuality and Civil Rights.

    9 Resolution #5: Affirmative Action.

    9 Resolution #6: Drugs and Crime.

    9 Resolution #7: Recitation in the Public Schools.

This order of resolutions centers on touching the image of God in people, and serves the crucial need to define the source and nature of unalienable rights. If politicians would affirm unalienable rights as found in the Declaration of Independence and in the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, then their resonation should help pave the way for them to be more open to subsequent concerns such as protecting the historic definition of marriage and family, of protecting women and their unborn equally.

5. Seek to win the implementation of these and cognate initiatives, to elect godly people to office.

6. Support or participate in Sacred Assemblies for the Unborn, including the Jeremiah 19 Liturgy.

Connecticut Petition Drive

The TEI Political Alliance is being first organized in Connecticut, with an initial goal to stop the push for same-sex "marriage,@ when homosexual activists introduce it, for a third time, to the General Assembly in February, 2003. We have participated in an ad hoc coalition which has stopped same-sex "marriage" in 2001 and 2002. Details forthcoming.
