Ephesians 6:10

10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

Has probably never been used to get votes in a presidential election.

It has never been used because it would be a perversion of Paul's message. Ephesians 6:18 gives the goal of the passage regarding the shielding of Satan from our personal faith so we may pray in the spirit, "Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit."

Christ eschewed secular governance for his "Kingdom is not of this world: if my Kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews." John 18:36. Set, game, match.

Get some good study guides and read the Bible for yourself. I love my pastor but would not vote for him as President. I am sure a moderator could verify the years I have been a member of this forum and it is the distortion of religion that has caused me to post at this time.

On the secular issue of electing a President, be assured that if Cruz is nominated his unprepossessing appearance and professorial delivery will garner fewer states than Goldwater carried.
