NASB | 1 Corinthians 1:10 ¶ Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be made complete in the same mind and in the same judgment. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 1:10 ¶ But I urge you, believers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you be in full agreement in what you say, and that there be no divisions or factions among you, but that you be perfectly united in your way of thinking and in your judgment [about matters of the faith]. |
Bible Question: In this political season, how can we square Paul's words with our deep disgust for our lost Democratic Christian counterparts. Can a person even be a Democrat and be a Christian? Maybe I just answered my own question? |
Bible Answer: ...Cont I could never vote for a Democrat because of what the party stands for. It is the party of the Liberals. The word liberal can mean a good thing but where the Democrats are concerned, it means being against everything the Bible stands for. Take the Hollywood crowd, please. They stand for anything and everything that is anti-God and anti-American. Liberals are noted for condemning the victim and letting the criminal go free. Taking from the, so-called, rich and giving to the poor. More than likely, those that will not work. They pride themselves in being broad-minded which includes accepting any perverted thought or lifestyle that comes down the pike. Liberals teach that any misdeed that you do is not your fault but someone else's, or you are just a victim of your environment. Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. It is the party of the Homosexuals. If you are truly a Christian, I should not have to elaborate any further. Anyone that condones the act is spiritually blind and in his or her natural sinful state. Romans 1:26-27 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: [27] And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. It is the party of the Abortionists (Murderers). If you condone any form of abortion, you are not a true Christian. Exodus 20:13 Thou shalt not kill. Deut. 5:17 Thou shalt not kill. Matthew 5:21 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: If you know your Bible the word kill here means murder. There is a difference in murder and the taking of life in war and by accident. If you think for a minute that the God of the New Testament is a different God than is in the Old Testament you are, again, spiritually blind. God has always sanctioned the taking of life in a rightful state. It is the party of the Welfare recipients. God's word says if a man refuses to work, he should not eat. 2 Thes. 3:10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. If a man needs help, he should expect to get it first from his physical family or else from his spiritual family. This meaning the church that he is a member of and has supported with his attendance, time, tithe and talent. It is the party of the Socialists. More, so called, spreading of the wealth and eliminating God from every aspect of life. I believe that this is enough to corroborate my views on the matter. If you think differently, please feel free to discuss it with me but be prepared to back it up with the word of God. |
