Is America ready for a Gay President???

Poll closed Jan 16, 2021.
  1. YES it is ready, if the man or woman is qualified.

    20.0%
  2. NO, even if they walked on water. I am appalled by the thought of a gay president.

    70.0%
  3. No opinion yet. But I am giving it a thought if Buttigeg proved more qualified than Trump.

    10.0%
  4. I would not vote, PERIOD.

    As I said on the deleted post (between 17 & 18- the picture was inappropriate for a Baptist Board. -- The original picture was not an accusation- as it could not have been physicaly possibly for it to be true.

    No. I'm only saying that it's not at all a deterrent for me. But at any rate I'm not planning on voting for Pete because his policies and mine don't line up.

    Pete has the right to run in any election, and I will study his platform. If he provides a solid solution to our nations problems then yes I might vote for him.

    You deny there was a Queen james bible, or that many have things like annual gay rights parade to ram it down society?

    Yes, andwhile there are many who are "decent", but also there some of them who love to rub their sin behavior in our faces, and in face of God!

    Buttigiegs biggest problem is his gay homosexual MARRIAGE to that man while calling himself a christian. Which scripture says anyone who calls himself a brother and is sexually immoral, (actually the passage refers to any of these in that list demonstrating a whole gamut of the fruits of the flesh unrepentant, meaning its a way of life for them ) we are not to support or have anything to do with them, we are to put them away from ourselves, which means you would not be able to vote for him without it being a sin of rebellion against God as the person is an evil person.
    Paul says not to even eat with such a one, which might have been considered a minor thing. No association, its like dont fellowship with the doctrines of demons. If your supporting them your agreeing and accepting of them.

    We dont have to see the word vote to know not to support these people. We dont want to give more authority to evil people like this who are perverting the gospel by electing them as POTUS.

    1 Corinthians 5:10-13 New King James Version (NKJV)
    10 Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world. 11 But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner—not even to eat with such a person.
    12 For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside? 13 But those who are outside God judges. Therefore “put away from yourselves the evil person.”

    Great verses. Now apply them to Trump.

    Sexually immoral? Yes.
    Covetous? Yes.
    Reviler? Yes.
    Extortioner? (NIV uses "swindler") Yes.

    Did you vote for Trump?

    When your married into a homosexual marriage, it is impossible to repent of that. How do you know Trump has not repented of his former way of life?

    I will refrain from voting for either elite political parties candidate for President as long as both show no ability to represent me to the world. My conscience will not allow me to justify the means as so many brothers and sisters in Christ have done. I am not about strategizing and attempting political manipulation.

    That being said, I honor our leaders as women and men whom God places in government for his ordained purpose and will. If David could honor Saul, I can honor Obama, Trump and whoever comes next. They are in position to accomplish God's plan for this earth.

    Look up the definition of a "reviler". Now go look at Trump's tweets on Twitter. Tell me, has he repented?

    Extortioner? We just had an impeachment trial based on Democrats belief that yes, Trump tried to extort Ukraine.

    Did you vote for Trump?

    I guarantee that if Trump had a past of sleeping with men, most evangelicals would not be nearly as willing to wave that off as they are of his past of adultery
