Subject: Can a Christian be a Democrat? |
Bible Note: GB: I agree with your statement: "For if we can save one aborted child with our vote; prevent one same sex marriage, there will be one more soul who may lead someone else to Christ, one less perverted househole in America, and we will have done at least one usefull thing in life." I choose to do this with my Christian ministry - the word of God is powerful. (Heb 4:12) I am not so naive or presumptuous as to think I will stop Bible prophecy from being fulfilled - the love of the greater number will cool off, and things will go from bad to worse. But if I can help one person to accept the good news before the end comes, I will have (and have had) great cause for rejoicing. I spend considerable time, effort and financial resources in this regard, so that no one can legitimately claim I have a "don't care" attitude. I am convinced that living a Christlike life and speaking about the undeserved kindness of God to all that will listen is the best way to follow Jesus' example and please God. Personally,I find politics degrading and ineffective for doing God's will. Despite any small exceptions, I believe history and the present state of world affairs can attest to this fact. Your friend. |
