Election Day Coming UP!

First and foremost of all. THIS IS MY PERSONAL BLOG. I am a traditional, Bible believing, Baptist Pastor speaking on my own behalf. I served my country and PAY MY TAXES TOO! That being said.... Election Time Again. Are you tired of the campaign adds yet?
As October rolls out and November rolls in we find ourselves again facing an election time. This is one of the most important elections I have faced since I first got to vote in 1978. a lot is at stake. One of my favorite quotes is from Abraham Lincoln, "Sir my concern is not whether God is on our side my greatest concern is to be on God's side for God is always right'?" At a time when people are so locked in to financial problems I am afraid that people are going to vote their pocket books instead of Godly principles. As Lincoln said, "God is always right". I urge you to go out and vote this November. As you step into the booth and read the amendments set before you, I urge you to ask the question, What does the bible say about this. When you look at a candidate, look at the big three questions - Where do they stand on Abortion - Murder of the unborn, What does the bible say about that?, Look at Marriage, What does the bible define as a marriage? One man and one woman for life. God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. Where does the candidate stand on this issue. Homosexuality - What does the bible say about it, where does the candidate stand on it. What about there definition of family? I ask you to look at the topics and candidates and consider what God would have you do in the booth?
Spread the wealth around, sound like socialism. Consider this, Paul said if you don't work you should not either eat. Proverbs tells us to consider the Ant. The grasshopper should not sit around hoping to share the fruit of the Ants hard work. He should get a job and do as the ant. My ancestors fought to keep a country that was based on Judeo Christian Principles not socialist or communist theories. Freedom of speech, Freedom of the Press, the Freedom and right to bear arms, Freedom of Religion not freedom from it. I think about the issues and responses to the above topics by some running for Office. I then begin to wonder what Christian could vote for anyone who could be fore abortion, homosexuality, Dissolving the tradition definition of family, support socialist ideology. That's my personal opinion. If you don't like it don't read my blog. If you stand for Abortion, Homosexuality, Dissolving Family Values, support socialism or communism, then don't read my blog. Your computer has a button you can push and go somewhere else. I am not upset with you. In the way of politicians I guess I am saying, This Rev. Thomas Maxwell and I approved this blog.
