Christians and politics

I hear Christians say we "shouldn't care" what happens in politics,because Jesus said,"My kingdom is not part of this world'.Yes, I get that. The politicians don't "save" us, BUT should we go the other extreme, and practice total noninvolvement?I say no, and here's why. Take a look at it.Let's say there's a politician running for high office who is backing gay marriage,abortion,etc.And since "the world" believes in that, it's a close race,and the one backing that could win.And by Christians"turning a blind eye" to this by "noncommitting", here's the problem--do you realize that sometimes by being "noncommtal" we're hurting other Christians?Because if by our nonvote the person pushing those things gets in, there are going to be laws passed where the Christian dr. who doesn't perform an abortion can lose his license.Or the baker who doesn't bake a cake for a gay "wedding", {even though he owns his own bakery}, can get in legal trouble,like that poor Christian woman in Kentucky a while back?By our "non commital" attitude,we are putting our brothers and sisters into problems.What if a devil worshiper was running for office,and by our "nonvotes"in a close election he gets in and causes problems for our brothers and sisters?Why sell them out by being ho hum?Yes God takes care of us, but I don't think that should be used as an excuse not to get involved {to an extent} in things that affect all of us. We're to occupy till He comes.Like now there's a this push for abortion where the dr. can even murder the baby after birth, if the mother gives the thumbs down.Now lets say the backers of such a thing go door to door to get enough signatures to have a law like that passed.And most Christians say, they won't sign AGAINST it because they "don't want to get involved".But by enough of them doing that, the votes go in favor of the new law. Now hundreds of babies will die because of our blasé attitude.See what I mean?
 
Yeah...that's why if someone who is backing the devils agenda,say, wants to pass pro abortion laws,religious persecution, and the other is,leaning more "our" way, why not have preferences in that case?
Adultery is sin and it is still illegal in 23 states.

And the sad thing is, adultery is now in many cases "consentual"--there are these couples in "open marriages" who agree to these actions.And one of the devils biggest lies of deception is,he's got them saying that "this is 2019, we're not like the past,my grandmothers generation'. Like sin has become "accepted' now, throw out the 10 commandments.I would say this is a deception of the devil, and also the decline in morals is a sign of the last days.Agree?
