Another election day…what to do!
Those who believe God are called Saints in the Bible. Note that they believe what the God “says”… not just in a god. As Saints of God we are part of a Theocracy, not a Democracy. God has cast the only vote that matters eternally…and he voted in favor of His enemies and turning them into Saints….go figure…God is not like us!
“…while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation…. one died for all, therefore all died; and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.…God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ...” (Romans 5:10-11; 2 Corinthians 5:14-20)
Believers, regardless of what we may say or how we vote, are not simply Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Communists or Socialists. We are ambassadors for Christ…or we are not.
“…the Most High is sovereign over all kingdoms on earth and gives them to anyone he wishes and sets over them the lowliest of people… For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God.” (Daniel 4:17; Romans 13:1-2)
That being said…VOTE - but remember it is God who determines who among the “lowliest of people” will win.
For my wife, children and grandchildren..and anyone else who may be interested!
