Pray that God enlightens the voters, so they’ll put the right ones into office. God has given us free will and if the majority of Americans decide to follow the wrong path, we’ll bear the consequnces.

Actually, Jesus had very little if anything to do with Politics.

The Bible says that we are not of this world. This is a dark sinful fallen world. The Christian looks forward to a new earth.

95% of all people are not just liars, they are habitual liars. And politicians are probably closer to 100%.

I am a republican and a conservative. But I will not be depressed if Obama wins this election. I am looking for the soon return of Christ and I don’t subject God to the humiliation of whether he is concerned with earthly politics or not.

He created the heaven and earth and has already won the greatest controversy ever. Greater than any election. At Calvary he sealed the fate of those who reject him and those who accept him.

And that places this controversy, this election, in it’s proper perspective. In the end, it won’t mean a hill of beans.

What will matter is am I right with God and are my sins covered by the blood.

Well, that’s what the Bible says anyway. And yes, God does raise up and bring down Kings. To his glory. He will turn everything to his glory.

Yes. I am a bit concerned, we are studying Samuel which God established a King for the people because they rejected God as their ruler: so He gave them what they wanted.. I'm praying that God forgives us our lack of diligence in standing up for His values and grants us mercy; forgives us and gives us McCain/Palin. Because God can do anything. I've voted already.
