I love politics because it always reminds me how much I need to lean on Jesus and his teachings!  Thank goodness I know what party I belong too in the eternal election already knowing what the outcome will be!
Blessing!

Amen Amorus!

It's ironic that I made a similar post just a short time ago. My party is THE BODY OF CHRIST and JESUS CHRIST is the eternal HEAD. The platform has been the same for over 2,000 years.

This is really something beautiful to think about often. Our HEAD and ETERNAL LEADER has never broken a promise, and HE'S Holy, Perfect, Righteous, and without sin. I also want to repeat something else in the other post. We are having a membership drive RIGHT NOW! See below:
________________________________

GOOD NEWS!

1:  Romans 3:10 NASB  as it is written, "THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS, NOT EVEN ONE; THERE IS NONE WHO UNDERSTANDS, THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS FOR GOD; ALL HAVE TURNED ASIDE, TOGETHER THEY HAVE BECOME USELESS; THERE IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE."

2:  Romans 3:23  NASB  for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

3:  Romans 5:12  NASB  Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned--

4:  Romans 6:23  NASB  For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

5:  Romans 1:18  NASB  For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

6:  Romans 3:20  NASB  because by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes the knowledge of sin.

7:  Romans 3:27  NASB  Where then is boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.

8:  Romans 5:8-9  NASB  But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.

9:  Romans 2:4  NASB  Or do you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and tolerance and patience, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?

10:  Romans 3:22  NASB  even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction;

11:  Romans 3:28  NASB  For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law.

12:  Romans 10:9  NASB  that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;

13:  Romans 4:21  NASB  and being fully assured that what God had promised, He was able also to perform.

14:  Romans 4:24 NASB  but for our sake also, to whom it will be credited, as those who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead,

15:  Romans 5:1  NASB  Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

16:  Romans 10:10  NASB  for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.

17:  Romans 10:13  NASB  for "WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED."


Thanks be unto GOD for HIS unspeakable GIFT!, JESUS CHRIST, our Lord and Saviour forever!

I realize that many people will never be convinced regardless of how many scandals (Foley, Abramoff, Delay, Domestic Spying, Libby, Katrina, Abu Gharib, Iraq) come out against the party they feel they should be so loyal to.  However in the interest of putting the facts out there - the Republican party did not act to force Foley out quickly, even though they might have claimed that (another example of how they thrive on misleading the public).  Foley resigned when the news came out before the Republican leadership could react.  However they decided to keep the story within the Republican party leadership.  As far as the reference to Fox News - FYI O'Reilly put "Foley (D-FL)" as the caption when reporting this story and as far as I know he has not retracted this.

Speaking of hypocrisy, I only hope you recognize the hypocrisy of the Republican party leadership appointing a child predator as the person they wanted to lead the charge against child predators.  Similarly to how they appoint people with ties to oil companies in charge of environmental regulatory agencies and those with ties to pharmaceutical corporations in charge of the FDA and the like.

Besides objective disappointments like the all-time high deficits and national debt and the recent CIA report that the War in Iraq is actually creating more terrorists (Duh!).  The issue here is oversight.  It is often said that absolute power corrupts absolutely.  I say to vote Democrat in the interest of keeping our government honest, or at least a little less dishonest.

Now you have me laughing so hard I can barely type. If you really think that the democratic party is more honest then you have really been decieved or you are purposefully wearing blinders. A politician that says I am a Christian and I support abortion and same sex marriages like so very many democrats are doing. They are blantantly lying right there.

There are many republicans that I would never vote for as the republican party is getting infiltrated more and more with such individuals that think they can get a better ride that way but still are nothing they make themselves out to be. That is why it is important to know the candidate and how he is going to vote on different issues.

It is beyond me though why anyone that is a Christian would support a party where the entire party is against the things of God and want all the people in the nation to be either under communistic control or under sharia law (and their voting clearly shows it). Is it because you want to hasten the Lords coming? That isn't going to happen as Jesus will return when it is God's time and we can't change that.

In the meantime Christians should be doing what they can to prevent evil from over running us and voting for someone that wants abortions, same sex marriages and such things is not the way to do it.

It truly saddens my heart to see supposed Christians voting in support of abortion, same sex marriage, the silencing of the word of God .......

Florida_Catholic,

We only see or hear from you around election times, so I wonder how many folks have figured this out. The only thing I'm curious about is the connection between you and DLee and how much you get paid. So, help us out and tell us. We might be able to find out for ourselves. Regardless, thanks for the laughs and entertainment.   Grin

This a comment and a request. Since the last couple of years have gone so bad. Which I think most of it is lined up with the Bible and suppose to be happening. I think before we begin pointing fingers and slamming people, look at the Bible and see these things are to come to pass. The world religon, one ruler, etc. Things that are happening have to happen. Anyway, back to the point. I was wondering if we could start a thread of Rep.  and Dem. canidates, so we can compare them  and what they believe in. Some people may not have the time or the energy to do this and when it comes to time to vote they may go and vote for someone who isn't right. While I am a Rep., I am looking into others who line up with the Bible. Clinton may have had some good ideas but he did not line with the Bible and I don't care how often he went to church. He was not a Godly man according to his actios.

Kathy I agree with you Clinton was not and probably still isn't a Godly man.

Florida Catholic I have a wuestion for you. Aren't Catholics against abortion? If you answer yes then why do you support a pary that supports killing millions of innocent unborn babies? Your screen name leads me to believe you are a Catholic, does that mean you don't agree with your own religion? Or better yet with God's Word?

Sister Kathy,

I think that becoming informed about who you will vote for is a must. Here, we have a problem that appears to be getting worse by the day. There is so much mud-slinging, heavily slanted news media, and just plain lies that it's many times difficult to find out the truth.

This is just one reason why I love hard records of votes and other public records that take the weasel room away from those who stood for things their constituents didn't approve of. This is obviously more easily done for local elections and people you keep up with every day. BUT regardless, there are hard records to look at for folks who have served in public office. This leaves one at a disadvantage for a candidate who doesn't have any hard public records. In these cases, it would be nice to know them, ask them the questions you are interested in, and have some basis for believing they would either be a good choice or a bad choice. If the person refuses to take a stance on moral and Biblical issues, I wouldn't vote for that person. This is one good reason for primaries where people of the same party throw mud at each other. Those same people can be held word for word accountable for what they said in the primaries, and much can be confirmed or discredited.

We see evidence of either highly biased information or outright lies every day leading up to an election. The title of this thread is an example. One person did something grossly wrong - was forced to resign - and now folks want to paint the entire party with the same broad brush. One side wanted to handle this in house, make a media circus out of it, and take the voter's attentions away from the voting issues. The other side got outside investigation, involvement with law enforcement, and harsh ways to deal with the situation to the full extent of the law. Foley is out and not running, so now we can concentrate on the issues of survival and other top issues. As a side note, facts of the outside investigation are already starting to come out, and the folks who staged and timed this event aren't going to like it.

I just want to add what Clinton did was grossly wrong too and he did'nt even have the decency to say " I admit I was wrong and don't deserve to represent this Nation, therefore I will step down". Instead he stayed there and mocked and made America look like the Jester of the world.

Democrats would like Americans to forget that their president the one who lied publicly to the entire world about his affair, about not inhaling, and the same coward that ran off to another country to avoid going to Vietnam did all these wrongs. The sad thing is that for the most part they are so corrupt that they are looking for the speck in everyone else's eyes while trying to ignore the beams in their own eyes.

This is only one example. I'm not even going to mention all the rest of the trash that they allowed and hid. That would take a lot of writing and more books than I care to write about.

We need to vote for the Godly men, the ones that have the moral values, the ones that have a conscience that hasn't already been seared. Those that fear God. Those that love God, have respect for their country and who have honor.

Florida_Catholic,

The above is a repeated post for your benefit. You won't be calling anyone names here, as you have just found out. All of us would appreciate an answer to the above questions.

What do you mean?  I made a post (deleted by admin) that responded to the varied responses to correct a few of the factual errors.  I still don't know what part of it was against the rules, but I apologize for whatever was and if you give me some more info about it I'll make every effort to make sure it doesn't happen again.

I don't know who DLee is, but the proposition that I make posts around election times only is patently false, look at my message history - I have made many posts that were not around election times.  I don't get paid, I just have a different opinion than you.  I don't know why anyone would be so surprised.
