Well said, Sweet Pea.

People think that things like Prop 8 are just 'political' or 'civil' matters. But there is a spiritual dimension to this stuff that every Christian should be aware of if they have their head on straight. Satan may be the prince of the power of the air... but it should be obvious that he also uses political systems to push his moral filth on a society and to engraft his spiritual wickedness into the laws of a nation. Whenever Christians have a chance to oppose it they should do so.

It shocks me that so many believers dont seem to see this.

You can stand for righteousness without trampling people's private rights to live as they choose. Preach it, teaching, and enforce it in the church. The world will be the world.

Having married into a family where one side is Jewish I find the comparison HIGHLY offensive.

Again, neither McCain or Obama are as evil as Hitler. This comparison only highlights how irrational so many conservatives in the conservative movement have become.

If more Christians had been involved years ago, we could have fought smaller battles and won - now we are facing WAR in regards to certain things.

I have read several of your posts - and I am shocked at some of the things you have said....

- Democrat, Republican, Independent, Green Party - whatever...... as Christians we can disagree on social programs, fiscal programs, economic problems (cause etc) - BUT if we should all stand in agreement on GOD'S WORD! It is my personal opinion that if you support candidates that are against what God's Word says regarding moral issues (homosexuality, abortion, etc etc) - You WILL answer to God on judgment day! My Word - if you support someone who believes having a child out of wedlock is a "punishment" and that innocent life should be aborted to prevent that "punishment" - I don't believe you will be able to justify that to God.
You're failing to see my point....when the church was focused on strictly spiritual things we had awesome revival, healings, revelations, and mighty moves of God. The more POLITICAL we get the more it becomes obvious that we are carnal...trusting in Uncle Sam over Father God.

No one said he was, but there are some historical comparisons. Economic chaos and uncertainity have often proceeded major political, societal upheavals that lead to catatosrophic changes by a so called reformer with a radical past and associations.

Re: Prophetic Word about the Election

Antipas,

Do you have any discernment? Do you know right from wrong?

If you want to live right you can live right. The Government doesn't make people morally debased...people choose to be morally debased...even under "conservative" government. Sometimes it's worse because it's so well hidden behind the spit and polished image of conservatism.
