Bible Question:
I think the President is making the tough decisions on Irag and I think Charles Stanley is one of the better TV evangelist. But in last Sunday's sermon Charles Stanley was using Bible verses to justify HIS opinions...ie... that war protesters are sinning against God and his commandments (Paul's honoring goverment etc). Is it right to use the Bible on such a sujective/political topic? Again, I personally think the President is doing the right thing but it is a very tough call and I wouldn't think of using the Bible against people who disagreed with me on such a topic. |
Bible Answer: If God has promoted President Bush into his place of power, then we owe it to God to do as our God emplaced leaders require. Psa 75:6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. Psa 75:7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another. |
