“But that doesn’t tell anyone if they belief in God.” Will be the first thing people will say or think when they see this title, which is why it is entitled this way.
The vote is a snapshot into your state of mind. It shows how you were raised, it shows how you were educated. It shows if you have studied the person you are voting for or if you are just reacting to what is popular, what others are basically telling you is the way to vote. If this is not a look into your mind, then what is? The answer is there is nothing else that fits this description. So yes it can be said it is a look into your belief of God.
This election has shined a light on the beliefs of the voters more than it has ever before. It has shown that this nation is in dire need of returning to God and the teachings of the Bible.
The news pundits have made it very clear the importance of this very fact. They say that the “evangelicals” otherwise known as “Christians” are spit in their vote. But if you listen carefully that is actually not true, but at the same time it is true. They go on to say that those that practice their faith have not voted for Donald Trump, which is has it should be since he per the Bible fits the description of a false teacher (2 Peter 2). However, these votes have been split between mainly Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio.
Those that are active in their faith are in reality the true Christians, because they are active in their belief of God and strive to follow the teachings within the Bible. Anyone can say they are “Christian,” but it is their actions, the way they think, what they say and how they vote that shows if they are truly a believer.
This is why the vote is an instant snapshot of where you stand in your belief of God.
Someone that does truly belief there is a God, and that this life we now live is merely a stepping stone to that which is greater and eternal will strive to reflect the Son of God and His teachings.
These teachings include calling a sin a sin, for He died upon a cross for these sins. We are told that once we accept Him as our Savior to continue to live in sin is an insult unto Jesus Himself, and those that do this are in actuality not a child of God, but of His adversary, Satan (1 John 3).
So then how a person votes shows how their mind is attuned to the teachings of the Bible, and how informed they are about who they are voting for and how willing they are to listen not only to God, but upon what they see with their eyes and hear with their ears.
Then when it comes time to vote, they will be voting as God desires, but if they do not listen as was witnessed in 2012, God’s wrath will ultimately come into play. As has happened in the last eight years with the destruction of this nation’s image throughout the world, amongst other things.
Those that truly know God, knows that He must be first in ALL that we do. Since the vote is included in “all” then we must think. Is this someone that reflects God? If the answer is no, then that person is someone we should not vote for. If they curse, are vulgar, support sin and declare that sin is more important than God, they are not “Christian,” and so should not have our support for how they act reflects upon us and in reflection upon us reflects upon God.
