Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Galatians 5:19-21)
Paul isn't writing about our nation today, but he might as well be! We live in times of uncertainty and unrest for sure. With the coming election, there will be no winners in my opinion. Why do I say that? Well, in my humble yet educated opinion, my belief is that neither side stands solidly upon biblical values!
A vote for one will bring a strengthening of popular and politically correct opinions and beliefs. Voting for the other will bring further racial divide and civil unrest. So what is the answer for the CHRISTian? Pray and vote the biblical worldview . . . Kingdom principles!
While a believer cannot (and should not) endorse political parties or candidates, we can always endorse God's perspective and guidelines. Stay informed and stay active. The coming days will be a time like no other for we CHRISTians to be active, involved, engaged, vocal, and enthusiastically visible!
