Het staatkundige en gereformeerde van de SGP

Political intuitions of the Reformed Political Party (SGP) As a Calvinist political party SGP stresses the importance and relevance of orthodox Christian religion for nowadays secularizing Dutch society. Awareness of the religious roots of Dutch society is necessary to understand the essence of fundamental freedoms and the relation between church and state. It is also crucial for the vital and balanced development of the rule of law and a guarantee against superhuman aspirations and expectations of government. Notwithstanding SGP’s primary focus on Biblical argumentation the party also leans strongly on history as a guide and argument for political debate, so that it can properly be called a Christian-historical party.
