What could you share with me from the Bible that would justify voting for such a proabortion, pro-homosexual agenda, pro-gun control candidate?

Probably just as much as you could share that tells me you shouldn't vote for such a candidate. Get me the Scripture that tells us how to vote and we'll start from there.

I am an Evangelical, pro-life, Christian conservative and I am unashamedly supporting Rudy.

Now you and others in your judgemental attitude may, as someone did upthread, tell me that's a "sin."

But after years of political activism for socially conservative causes I have realized that I am fighting those battles in the wrong arena. I've marched up Capitol Hill, but I did far greater good by going to the local Crisis Pregnancy Center and folding laundry or running the vacuum than I ever did on Constitution Avenue.

When I look at the current list of candidates, and I look at the issues that are most crucial to our survival as a nation, I see Rudy emerging as the leader. Was he my first choice? No. But my first choice imploded.

I could accept several (not quite all) of the other choices. And I will support the eventual nominee.

But those who seek to judge my faith, my committement, my conservatism ~all because I support a candidate they don't like ~ are severely mistaken and are consumed by a judgemental attitude for which I can find far more Scriptural condemnation than I can for voting for the "wrong" candidate.

If you are than you are responsible to study and learn the word on your own. There is plenty in the Word that tells us to how to choose men to rule over us. And it doesn't take a college diploma to see clearly that those things that Rudy promotes are evil.

If you are Get me the Scripture that tells us how to vote and we'll start from there.

He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.2Sa 23:3

Pro 14:34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.

When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. Proverbs 29:2

Neh 7:2, and Deuteronomy 17:14-20

These are a few that come to mind, but unless you want to hear.

Mat 13:13 .... they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

because they received not the love of the truth,....And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

Yes I believe it is sin for you to join yourself to evil, especially the evil of sacrificing babies to Satan. And that is just one of the things. The 2nd amendment infringement might take a little more wisdom, but its pretty fundamental to freedom

I look at the issues that are most crucial to our survival as a nation,

You mean Rudy is the only man that can save America?

By promoting Rudy so early in the primary makes me think you have probably just jumped on the bandwagon because some of those you admire most on FR have done so. You have every right to support who you will for whatever reason. God was the author of this freedom we have.

Its is not that I dislike Rudy. I just believe he promotes the worst evil our world has ever seen. And I know that the Almighty God’s judgement will not rest for ever. I want to be in the right bundle.

You trust Rudy, I will trust God.

Ignore these personal comments to you. They are understandably frustrated. But they do not know how to deal with the changing country, and it has changed. Thank you for so eloquently stating what so many feel.
