God First

re-post
In Matthew 6:33 we are told to seek out the kingdom of God and His righteousness. Mathew 22:37 says to love God with all our heart soul and mind. This tells me one thing. To place God first is everything that I do and this is how it should be for all Christians.
Why I mention this is the other day I was told that we must keep religion and politics separate. I say if you place God first above all else how can you keep God out? You can’t.
This is a tool that has been thrown out by those that wish us to not place God first. To deny God and His Son the Lord Jesus Christ. But as Christ said if you deny Him he will deny you to His Father, which leaves only one true recourse. We must place God in every aspect of our life and that includes politics. So any group or person that denies God is a person or group that Christians should not associate with. Why? Because we are not placing God first in all we do if we do give them support.

Confessions of a screwed up middle aged man: Why am I so political yet pursue it through a Christian format?

It is all biblically based as to why I am political.
Daniel 4: 17 – For this has been decreed by the messengers; it is commanded by the holy ones, so that everyone may know that the Most High rules over the kingdoms of the world. He gives them to anyone he chooses— even to the lowliest of people.
Matthew 20:24 – When the ten other disciples heard what James and John had asked, they were indignant. 25 But Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers in this world lord it over their people, and officials flaunt their authority over those under them. 26 But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever wants to be first among you must become your slave. 28 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
Why bother telling the apostles how “rulers of the world” behaved if it were not meant for Christians to be involved as well?
Do we not see this behavior now present in many in Washington? Did we not see this behavior shown to the extreme by the previous administration of the presidency of the United States? Christians were involved when this nation was foundered 251 years ago.
Why is now any different than then?
The answer is greed. In 1954 the Johnson Amendment was put into place. This legislation made it where if people within a pulpit or upon a dais talked about political issues they would break this law and have to start paying taxes. As a result the churches started pushing for a misinterpretation of the first amendment of the Constitution. That being a “separation of church and state.”
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
The government cannot make a law that establishes a religion. Example. They cannot through the Department of Education mandate that we teach children about a religion in school. Since public schools are a part of the government, public schools cannot teach about Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, etc. and so on. Yet the last administration took large measures to teach Islam to our school children, violating the first amendment. If they are going to teach religions, they must give equal time and understand to ALL religions and at an age when the child can understand what they are being taught.
The government cannot interfer in how people wish to worship and show how they worship, “or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.” Yet they do. The government with the help of the courts which are an arm of the government say the Ten Commandments cannot be displayed. They force people to go against their beliefs and make products for those that are openly sinning against the teaching of the Bible.
James 4:17 – Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it.
All of this is why I am so political. Because God requires this behavior form all that call themselves Christian. Yet so few do. They would rather leave that to someone else. Well I am that someone else, but remember James 4:17. If you know you should be active in politics not just for God but for your children then you are sinning against God and the teaching of the Bible.
Since I know it is a sin not to be involved I am and will continue to be, until I am silenced. By either the states or I am called into the presents of God.

Hey you…. Involvement in politics is obeying God

So once again, since the election is over, I am hearing people say that politics and religion do not mix.
THAT IS A LIE!!!!
I had to use caps to get your attention. First off let’s look at the book of Daniel
4:17 – For this has been decreed by the messengers; it is commanded by the holy ones, so that everyone may know that the Most High rules over the kingdoms of the world. He gives them to anyone he chooses— even to the lowliest of people.”
Now let’s look at leadership:
Matthew 20:25 – But Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers in this world lord it over their people, and officials flaunt their authority over those under them. 26 But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever wants to be first among you must become your slave. 28 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
Why bother to mention how worldly members of government behave? Because it is to show how we are to act when we take an EQUAL level within a government. So this servant leadership is not just for leadership in a religion, but within a government as well. And I will take this one step further. It is Jesus giving a prophetic statement to a time when a nation would be founded upon Christian principles and laws. Namely, the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
So now let’s look at the first amendment:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
It states clearly that the government a.k.a. congress, cannot make a state run religion. Why was this so important to the founders?
It was due to the actions of Henry the Eight. He took the next logical step in the digression of those in power to not only sin, but to control the masses. He made royalty the head of the Church of England. As a result it empowered him to live an adulterous live and the death of most of his wives by his order.
We must also remember that other nations in the past labeled those in power as god. The Egyptians, the Romans, the Chinese are just three examples of the many ancient nations that did this very thing. The founding fathers of this nation saw what a state or government run religion would result in. Sin and corruption.
Then the founding fathers state in the first amendment that the government cannot interfere in the practice of your religion when they do not conflict with not only the law, but the Bible. Nowhere does it state that religion must stay out of the government. It actually states the complete opposite in Matthew 20. So Christians MUST be involved in how the government operates to the point of joining it AS A CHRISTIAN. For the government is to be the servant of the people, not the dictator of them. Any who oppose this mentality are working contrary to the teachings of the Bible and thus are against God.

Stop falling for the propaganda (Biblical grounds for not voting Democrat)

But what is this “propaganda”?
It is the belief that you have no say so in the way your government handles issues. It is the belief that those you, yourself place into office know better than you yourself do. It is the belief that there is a separation between church and state.
In this last sentence here is what is true: The government cannot make a religion. Example: the Church of England which the head of this church is Queen Elizabeth. This was placed into the First Amendment of the Constitution for this very reason. Why? So the government cannot dictate to you how or who you are to worship, which is the very next statement in the same amendment. This is the only separation of church and state ever meant by the founding fathers of this nation.
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Does this mean that the church cannot stick its nose into the government? No it does not.
John Adams in a speech to the military in 1798 warned his fellow countrymen stating, “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion . . . Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” John Adams is a signer of the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights and our second President.
Benjamin Rush, Signer of the Declaration of Independence said. “[T]he only foundation for a useful education in a republic is to be aid in religion. Without this there can be no virtue, and without virtue there can be no liberty, and liberty is the object and life of all republican governments. Without religion, I believe that learning does real mischief to the morals and principles of mankind.”
Noah Webster, author of the first American Speller and the first Dictionary said, “[T]he Christian religion, in its purity, is the basis, or rather the source of all genuine freedom in government. . . . and I am persuaded that no civil government of a republican form can exist and be durable in which the principles of that religion have not a controlling influence.”
So the influence of the church and of God are mandatory to the very existence of this nation per the founding fathers of this very nation. They understood the importance of placing God first in ALL things.
Now keeping these three quotes in mind above why support an organization that wishes to remove God from it. This is their stance of “faith”:
“Faith. Faith has always been a central part of the American story, and it has been a driving force of progress and justice throughout our history. We know that our nation, our communities, and our lives are made vastly stronger and richer by faith and the countless acts of justice and mercy it inspires. Faith- based organizations will always be critical allies in meeting the challenges that face our nation and our world—from domestic and global poverty, to climate change and human trafficking. People of faith and religious organizations do amazing work in communities across this country and the world, and we believe in lifting up and valuing that good work, and finding ways to support it where possible. We believe in constitutionally sound, evidence-based partnerships with faith-based and other non-profit organizations to serve those in need and advance our shared interests. There is no conflict between supporting faith-based institutions and respecting our Constitution, and a full commitment to both principles is essential for the continued flourishing of both faith and country.”

This is closest they ever get to acknowledging God. It is just a punch of political double talk, it has no meaning or value it is just there to placate and subdue. They do not plan or want to have God first in anything they do. In fact their actions show they actually wish God, the Bible and Christianity removed from everything and everywhere.
James 4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
So what is good? To a true Christian it is to place God first and to follow His teachings as set forth within the Bible. So if the Bible states something is a sin and you know it is a sin and do nothing to stop and even encourage it you are guilty of this sin.
We are told to reprove, rebuke and exhort (2 Timothy 4:1-5) when we do this as instructed within the Bible to do people accuse us of judging them. Yes it also says within the Bible not to judge, but there is a difference. When it refers to those that judge they are guilty of the same sin and also are not working with scripture. Those that stay within scripture and can point out with evidence from within the Bible are not judging but are following what the Bible tells them to do… To reprove…. To rebuke… And then then exhort you with longsuffering to turn from your sin and return unto God and His teachings within the Bible. In most cases those that accuse you of judging are feeling the guilt within and lash out at you because deep down they know you are right.
So back on topic. The Democratic Party denies there is a God.
Matthew 10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
This one sentence given by Jesus Christ should be enough to cause those that call themselves Christian to turn their backs upon the Democratic Party, but still many participate and vote Democratic, even though by doing so they are going against God as stated in James 4:17. What this means is that they wish to befriend the world and use the platitude “love the sinner, but hate the sin.” What they forget is that to love the sinner they must reprove, rebuke and exhort them NOT to sin. Look at the verses that follow closely:
1 Corinthians 6: 9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor pedophiles, nor homosexuals, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
What I want you to note is not what you expect. Look at: “And such were some of you”.
This is a key statement. It is stated in the past tense. They are no longer guilty of this for they have stopped doing it because they truly accept Christ as their Savior and were filled with the Holy Spirit. There are those that say you can live in sin and still be one with God. This is a lie. We are told to separate ourselves from those that sin. Since the Democratic Party supports homosexuality and says to them that not only can they stay this way but that they can now wed is embracing sin. Since it is through the efforts of the Democratic Party that Planned Parenthood commits Abortions and then cuts up the bodies of these dead human fetuses that they themselves killed is a sin. And they openly support it. I have evidence from both of my Senators that are both Democrats that they plan on continuing to support the funding of Planned Parenthood.
Harry Reid proudly announced in an interview that he lied about Mitt Romney to destroy his election. Barack Obama lied to the American public about the benefits of Obamacare. Hilary Clinton has been caught time and again in lie after lie about her e-mail server.
Proverbs 6: 16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
Proverbs 19: 9 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish.
John 8: 44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
In addition we are instructed within the Bible to avoid those that divide us and do so with fancy speeches. This again describes most in power within the Democratic Party
Romans 16: 17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. 18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
So here is where the Democratic Party Stands:
1) They deny God
2) They support and openly encourage sin
3) They embrace lying
4) They divide us with the use of good words and fair speeches
James 4: 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
So it is clear that due to the denial of God, the open support of sin and the proud admissions of lying that any that truly call themselves “Christian” must now make a choice. It is a simple one. God or the Democratic Party. It is up to you, but remember now that you have read this post it is something that will be placed within your book that is being written by an angel that watches over you, that watches over you all of every single moment of every day. (Psalms 139)
Cast out evil and use your power at the ballot box and remove ALL Democrats from office due to their official stance upon God and their open support of sin. No longer call yourself a “Democrat.” I myself call myself “Unaffiliated.” Find those that truly support and live the values set forth within the Bible and know that even in the Republican Party there are wolves in sheep clothing amongst them as well, but at least they official acknowledge there is a God.

Do not think you can still mix within the Democratic Party and try to fix it from the inside-out. You must understand that most within it have embraced the world. They will not leave it. You cannot fix it. The Democratic Party is a lost cause to Christianity. The only way to fix it is to cause its destruction, which can only occur by its collapse due to a mass reduction of support for their actions, their candidates and their openly worldly policies.
This is a nation OF the People and FOR the people. Not those in power, but the PEOPLE. It is your actions that dictate where this nation goes. If you sit in your home and do not participate in the process that governs this nation then know this inaction can be used against you at the Great White Throne Judgement as well. It is time to show your faith and beliefs. You can no longer sit quietly and pray only. It is time to become an “activist Christian” in the political process of this nation, since we are to place religion into the government process. Become someone of action for God.
What are these actions? Writing your government representatives and show them your values and insist they support them, if they do not, remove them from office even to the point of a recall vote. Voting at ALL elections. Actively seeking candidates that truly support God’s values and teachings. If you can find none then you must run for office yourself. Remove any from office that have been in Washington for over a decade and especially do not follow the teachings of the Bible. Teach and spread the word of the Bible to ALL, get out of your house, get out of your churches and get involved and do this 365 days of the year, especially at your job. Let it be known to the world that you serve God and His son the Lord Jesus Christ. Do not live in fear, but be proud to call yourself a child of God.

A question was asked

Christian, General, Guide, Life, politics, Relationship, Thoughts, , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Recently Dr. Ben Carson was ask a specific question.
“Do You Think I Chose to Be Gay?”
Dr. Carson’s response was correct: “That is a long discussion.”
This is my attempt to have that discussion. It will be Biblically based, and so many will choose not to listen beyond this point, but I honestly expect that to happen. Many refuse to hear the truth so they can continue to live the lives they have chosen to live because of their own personal, though temporary, happiness is more important to them.
First I need to make something clear. I have had to personally struggle with this life choice myself. Simply, I considered homosexuality, but rejected it.
In Jeremiah 1:5 God said this to Jeremiah: “Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.”
Now he was speaking to Jeremiah, but do you think this does not apply to us that God knew us before we were even conceived? That answer is yes God knew all humanity before it was conceived and before we were born. But what does that mean?
In Hebrews 10 it spells out what Jesus Christ did for all sinners that accept Him. That their sins are no longer remembered and they can stand boldly before God.
This means that upon birth God can no longer see us but only our sins and God can no longer see us due to being then exposed to the corruption caused by Adam and Eve. Then once we accept Jesus as our savior those sins are forgotten and we are able to stand before God and be seen.
In Deuteronomy 6:4-7 it says this: Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
Proverbs 22:6 says Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
So in the womb we are known by God and so are truly and completely sin free. When we are born we are exposed to sin. So God tells us to train our children in the ways of the Bible so when they reach the age of accountability they will not depart from God.
Now at this point there are those out there that challenge that homosexuality is a sin. First I must remind you that I am again coming from a Biblical point of view. Now there are two areas in the New Testament that I wish to address the explanation that per the Bible homosexuality is a sin. The first being the first chapter of Romans. Here it goes into detail of first idolatry and then straight into homosexuality by both females and males. In verses twenty-six and twenty-seven it is stated that women gave up their natural use for that which is against nature, that being reproduction and in the next verse says that men did the same. So by going against nature itself this is considered a major sin for a species must reproduce to continue on. Also who created nature? God.
Now looking at 1 Corinthians chapter 6. First I wish to point out the beginning of verse nine:
“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?”
Then Paul goes on and says “Be not deceived:” and lists out those in Corinth that practiced certain sins. Many think “effeminate” means homosexuals, I was one of them. But this actually refers to pedophiles. What deals with homosexuals is “nor abusers of themselves with mankind.” This phrase is actually the Greek word “arsenokoites,” this means homosexuals.
So if homosexuality is listed as “unrighteous” and goes “against nature,” and thus God, it is a sin.
So as I have shown above no one is born a homosexual for we are born pure for God can only see that which is clean. So to say nature made you one is counter to the facts given above. So after someone is born their parents should be instructing constantly how they should live and behave within the guidelines given within the Bible so that they will not sin. So when the time comes and the fork in the road stands before them one leading to sin a.k.a. homosexuality or to follow the teaching of the Bible. It is that persons CHOICE if they will go for the sin or for God. Now if their parents did not teach them correctly, that does not excuse them from the fact that they are in fact following how they were nurtured. For how they think and feel came from human interactions not something “born” within them.
So the answer to this person’s question to Dr. Carson is: Yes you did chose to be gay.
But here is the good news which is why I went with 1 Corinthians 6 last. For in verse eleven it says this:
“And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.”
“AND SUCH WERE,” in the past tense. For as you chose to be gay you can decide not to be gay. Will it hurt? Will there be extreme emotional pain? The answer is yes to both of these questions. For as is shown in John 15 God will purge those He loves, and it will be painful in many cases but once through faith and believe that Jesus Christ is Our Savior and live our lives according to the teachings of the Bible, which means you must become one with nature once again and return to heterosexuality we will make it into the eternal life to come and all the wonders and glory that come with it as long as we strive ever forward to be a true reflection of Jesus.

Do not think you can still mix within the Democratic Party and try to fix it from the inside-out. You must understand that most within it have embraced the world. They will not leave it. You cannot fix it. The Democratic Party is a lost cause to Christianity. The only way to fix it is to cause its destruction, which can only occur by it collapse due to a mass reduction of support for their actions, their candidates and their openly worldly policies.
This is a nation OF the People and FOR the people. Not those in power, but the PEOPLE. It is your actions that dictate where this nation goes. If you sit in your home and do not participate in the process that governs this nation then know this inaction can be used against you at the Great White Throne Judgement as well. It is time to show your faith and beliefs. You can no longer sit quietly and pray only. It is time to become an “activist Christian” in the political process of this nation, since we are to place religion into the government process. Become someone of action for God.
What are these actions? Writing your government representatives and show them your values and insist they support them, if they do not, remove them from office even to the point of a recall vote. Voting at ALL elections. Actively seeking candidates that truly support God’s values and teachings. If you can find none then you must run for office yourself. Remove any from office that have been in Washington for over a decade and especially do not follow the teachings of the Bible. Teach and spread the word of the Bible to ALL, get out of your house, get out of your churches and get involved and do this 365 days of the year, especially at your job. Let it be known to the world that you serve God and His son the Lord Jesus Christ. Do not live in fear, but be proud to call yourself a child of God.

Just read where someone said to keep Christ out of politics.

Here is the thing that he is forgetting. We are told to place God first in EVERYTHING that we do.
The moment you remove God from politics you are denying God’s greatest commandment to us as given by His Son the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mark 12:29 – And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: 30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
How can you give ALL to God if you do not include him in ALL. So it is imperative that we do place God into politics. The reason this nation has lost the blessing of God is due to those that insist God be removed from politics.
“But what about the separation of church from state?” They will say. The answer is simple especially if you actually read the First Amendment of the Constitution. The government cannot make a church. The government cannot interfere with how you practice your religion or for that matter the choice not to practice a religion. This is what is meant by the statement “separation of church and state” not the opposite that has been shoved down our throats for decades. The kicking of religion out of the government is a lie and anything that is a lie comes from the father of lies. So ponder on that for a bit.
If you place God first in all that you do INCLUDING politics it makes you follow the teachings given to us within the Bible as a guide as how we are to respond within politics. Yes with love, but if something is seen as a sin within the Bible then it is opposite God.
This is why it is mandatory for Christians to votes in every election and when they do so they think “How would God vote for this this issue or person.”
Example: If a candidate shows support for someone that lives in sin like homosexuality then this person is a friend of the world. 1 John 2:15 says that to be a friend of the world is not to have the love of God. So this person should be voted against. It is just that simple.
“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.”
You must act within the teaching of the Bible at all times and apply them in every aspect of your life. We have lived to long with other humans telling us how to think, act and vote. It is time we honor God and His Son the Lord Jesus Christ and do as we are taught, place GOD FIRST IN EVERYTHING WE DO.

The misconception of “politicizing” religion

Christian, General, government, Guide, Life, Relationship, Thoughts, , , , , Leave a comment

There has been fallacy built since the 1960s that has now firmly entrenched itself into those in power within the Body of Christ. To start to breakdown this error we need to look to the First Amendment of the Constitution.
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
The government can make no laws in the “establishment” (the act or an instance of establishing.) [making] of a religion.
Neither can the government prohibit (to forbid the action of) the free exercise thereof.
So clearly we can practice our faith and the government cannot interfere with said practice.
Now look at this verse:
Matthew 6:24 – No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Now we all concede that mammon is money. Now since money is behind all that happens especially in politics. We cannot serve the desires of politicians and God, but we can influence through our right to vote who we serve. If our masters are the politicians then we should follow what they say and do as they do. But that is not what Christians are called to do. We are called to follow God. Does this mean we should never vote? By all means no. It means the total opposite.
Proverbs 3:6 – In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
So we are directed by God in all our ways which includes politics and He shall tell us who to vote for.
This means we must follow everything that the Bible directs us to do within it. For example:
Matthew 10:33 – But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
So if a group or person denies Jesus then Jesus shall deny them to God. So why would you support a group or person that denies God? There is a group that officially denies God at this time. It is the Democratic Party. https://www.democrats.org/party-platform. Go ahead read it. Show me one time you find the word “God” mentioned.
This fact alone says any that call themselves “Christian” cannot vote for a democrat yet many do and in returning they are denying Christ unto His Father.
Any that argue that Christianity and politics do not belong together is not following the true meaning of the Bible and it purpose to guide all away from sin. How can you be led away from sin when you encourage the removal of God from the ballot box and in essence allow sin to reign over God?
We are told that me must seek out the kingdom of Heaven and righteousness. We are to do this first and foremost in ALL that we do. This includes the ballot box.
Those that say otherwise are falling for the propaganda placed out there by those that have twisted the First Amendment to state that religion has no place in government when it is the total opposite that is true. Government has no place in religion, but that does not mean religion has no place in government. If that were so then why even bother to open the senate and congress with prayer? Also Senators and Congressmen quote from the Bible all the time while they are on the floor.
Now if you do not like that the two parties are corrupt then per the Bible and if we are to seek out the kingdom of God and to be righteous then should we not remove those that do not seek the kingdom of God and are not righteous? The answer is a resounding YES! So again we come back to placing religion into politics.
Simply put per the First Amendment the government cannot make a religion but a religion has the right to change the government since the government cannot interfere in the practices of any religion which includes addressing issues that fall within the political domain. So in turn can influence change within the political arena for the good of all especially when seeking the kingdom of God and righteousness.
As a final note for those post. In Romans 12 it states that each part of the Body of Christ has its own tasks and duties to perform. I fully support the endeavors and actions of those other with their own tasks throughout the body. Many though have forgot this little bit of scripture and think that the main duty of the Body is to add more to it. As I stated above this is all fine and good and I support it, but they must remember that there are other parts of the Body with their own tasks assigned unto them by Christ. Below find the verses of this book:
Romans 12: 1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. 4 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: 5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. 6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; 7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; 8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness. 9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. 10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; 11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; 12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; 13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. 14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. 15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. 16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. 17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
One group that is forgot is the “exhorter” to exhort means: 1. to urge, advise, or caution earnestly; admonish urgently. 2. to give urgent advice, recommendations, or warnings.
Many forget that it is required and is a legitimate part of the Body of Christ for someone to do this task. For it is important as the last verse states not to be overcome by evil, but to overcome it with good.

The fall of the United States (when Christians support those that defy the teaching of the Bible or do not bother to vote at all)

Christian, Conservative, General, government, Life, Thoughts, , , , , Leave a comment

All you need do is look back into history and you will see that history truly does repeat itself. In Roman, the senate was originally formed but those who represent groups with the society. This in time changed to those that had the most power and influence. Then ultimately to an emperor or as we would call it today a dictatorship. This was one problem.
Then we had the common people fall into decadence and hedonism. Those things, which the Bible call a sin, became the common place and accepted within Roman society.
Then there was the Coliseum. A place where gladiators fought to entertain and distract the populous. This then led to complacency, which allowed the Roman Army, once the best in the world, to degrade and fall apart.
This allowed outside powers to become emboldened to act to the point that they captured the city of Roman itself. Then the once great nation splintered and fell apart and the world entered into the dark-ages.
If you look about you. You will see the nation of the United States following the exact same pattern. It is something that does not need to take place. It is something that those with true power can be address. By the way, I do not mean the government.
This nation was formed for the people, and BY THE PEOPLE. It is those about you that have the power to fix this issue.
The main place that it is done is in the ballet box. You must vote your believes, not what someone says they can do. If they do not support that which is right in the Bible then they do not represent what is good for this nation.
Look not only at the person but also at the group the person ally themselves with.
To me, it is impossible to place the words “Christian” and “Democrat” together. The Democratic party support homosexuality, murder of unborn child, the removal of God from society. All this is opposite what is taught within the Bible.
Therefore, if you support a democrat you are supporting that which is against God. So to me, you really are not Christian.
I will not argue that many that are in office are not worth being there, but who keeps voting for them?
If you say no one is running against that is worth voting for. Run yourself. Trust me I have looked into it, but I am learning that you need to start at the local levels and be young. I am nearing the end of my working years. I do not have the money required to run for office on my own, nor can I get the Republican Party to give me the time of day. If I could get support, trust me I would run, in a heartbeat.
People need to start voting on how a person votes and acts and where they are in their faith. No matter the faith. For if they are closer to God then they are more worthy to run then those that deny Him.
