Our Nation was founded to be
"One Nation Under GOD"
NOT under an elephant or a donkey!
Don't buy the hype!!! or Campaign Rhetoric!!!!!!!!!!
HERE is a non-partisan list of the voting record that illustrates the ACTUAL beliefs of the Presidential candidates.
I urge all of you to not be loyal to ANY PARTY!
True Followers of Christ are Loyal to HIM and Him alone. -"No other gods" includes - party lines, personal opinions, and "conventional wisdom."
There are a lot of issues to examine, but the most important is the character (which is demonstrated over time through consistent action) and achievements of each candidate not what they SAY!! We all know talk is cheap! WE MUST look at the record of what each candidate has; done, or not done; supported, or not supported. DO NOT BE influenced by the left or the right, Be solely influenced by "above".
I challenge you, ..... I plead with you to take the ideology and character of each man and woman running and compare them to the ONLY TRUE STANDARD, God's word.
Erase the names, and the parties.
Take candidate A evaluate his/her record and character against Scripture.
Take candidate B evaluate his/her record and character against Scripture.
God's WORD is the FINAL authority!!!! There are no "ifs", "ands" or "buts". Scripture speaks concerning: family, military, marriage, sexual orientation, truthfulness & justice vs "doing what is right in your own eyes", only place for sexual activity-the value of children/Life, welfare (who should and who should not eat), what happens to nations who ignore God's laws in their selection of leaders, doing what is right or doing what is popular, Leadership....
I wish there was a candidate running that was the embodiment of virtue and experience but HE is in heaven and is not running for US president. In comparison to Christ, all men fall short. We must then seek to choose the leader who will most honor the standards of Scripture. We must love what God Loves and Hate what God hates and have the humility, fortitude and grace to seek His approval above ALL others.
Grace and Peace!
