If you do not vote are you responsible for ungodly decisions made in government?
Can you support a “pro-choice” candidate and not be accountable to God for the killing of unborn children?
Is your loyalty to a political party or is your first loyalty to God?
Do you vote like a citizen of this earth, or a citizen of Heaven?
Do you KNOW the spiritual convictions of the candidates you support?
Is the removal of Godly principles from government acceptable to you?
What have you done PERSONALLY to support candidates who promote Christian principles?
If Christians would vote their values, would the condition of our country be different than it is today?
Are you ready to VOTE your values?
Will you become light and salt in our political system?
Is there any hope for our country if followers of Christ do not stand up NOW and take charge?
Thank you for another excellent post. Keep up the good work.
You left out the Constitutional mandate for the Establishment Clause. And the obvious question; ” Do you have enough faith in God to keep your religious beliefs to yourself, out of our government so that others may also be free to worship?”
Constitutional mandate for the Establishment Clause? Did you dream that one up or did George Soros call you or what? Mandated by whom? I have enough faith to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and His teachings to go forth and preach the Gospel. Hint for you: That would mean to others.
If you’d care to provide the scripture instructing you to inject religion and “the word” into government I’d love to read it. And since we’re talking about your Christian convictions, let’s limit the scripture to the New Testament, and preferably a direct quote from Jesus if you can muster it. And let’s leave the Tanakh out of it, because it was never intended to be a part of Christianity.
Sorry Inde, You don’t get to make the rules. The Lord Jesus Christ commanded his disciples to go and teach all nations. You neither have the authority to limit any discussion to whatever suits your point nor the authority to limit me. Christianity is the fulfillment of the Old Testament (your Tanakh). One cannot seperate the two. Both are the word of God.
The “New Testament” is a relatively short addition used by Christians. It is not a part of the Tanakh. They have been separate for thousands of years. The Roman Catholic empire combined the two recently, in the big historical picture of religious affairs. And non-denominational folks like you branched off of the Catholic Church.
I don’t make these rules, history did. And they’re historical biblical facts by the way. You’re convictions are supported by, well nothing other than your words. The “born again” movement is supported only by itself.
Don’t patronize me with your pronouncements of “fact”. They are distortions, misinformation and deliberate disinformation inspired by the deceiver. Your declaration of “fact” do not make facts. Truth makes fact and you are far from it.
You really didn’t know the Romans decided to adopt Christianity as their state religion, after persecuting early Christians for years, held tribunals, picked the early Christian scriptures they wanted foorm literally hundreds of Christian sects in existence at the time, ordered the rest of the early Christian scriptures and those who followed them destroyed, translated the Tanakh so the Gentiles may read it, combined it with the Tanakh, then called their finished product “The Holy Bible.” We Jews by contrast have followed the ancient word of God through Abraham and Mosesand oral transition for hundreds of years before writing the Tanakh in the ancient Hebrew text. Ours is among the oldest and purest scripture on earth. The “New Testament” is a Gentile addition to our holy book, one that cannot stand alone, as our Tanakh did for two thousand years before the “New Testament” was written, and the original word of God as passed orally for hundreds of years before the Tanakh was written.
I’m sorry Ed, I thought you had at least a minimal knowledge of biblical history involving your chosen faith. You may condemn this factual synopsis if you will, but I’m merely repeating historical facts.
You are sorry, indeed.
