It's the mathematics of the situation, not an opinion thing. If A has 48 votes, B has 48 votes, and C has 1 vote; then there are three votes left, including yours...two of you vote for C, and the remaining person votes for A. Guess who wins?
You're under the impression that I care more about who wins an election than I care about having a right witness for Christ.
Here's another math situation for you.
If A has 48 votes, B has 48 votes, and C has 1 vote; then there is one vote left, mine and I vote for C, who wins?
As I've said repeatedly, we're dealing with darkness vs. darkness. There's no mathematical picture or any other picture that anyone can paint that will make me vote for either one of the anti-Christs.
Simple mathematics. Nothing about opinions at all. Sorry you feel like its such silliness.
It is silliness. Folks act like they are saving the country by voting for Romney and getting Obama out of office. This country needs JESUS not Romney. But try telling the country they need Jesus after supporting a candidate who worships a god that ain't Jesus.
Nope. My ability to honorably witness for Christ means infinitely more to me than getting Obama out of office.
Obama being in or out of office does not affect my ability to share the Gospel.
Me voting for a candidate who worships a false god would affect that ability.
Actually, you can't definitively say that.
Sure I can.
In reality, you're right; your one vote probably won't make that much of a difference.
That's why I said that I could say it.
But when combined with all the others who vote like you, it makes a big difference.
And if every Christian aligned themselves with Christ and the things HE loves, it would make a big difference.
If all the folks who voted for Obama who called themselves Christians wouldn't vote for him, it would make a big difference.
But we're not talking baout combined votes. We were talking about MY vote.:smilewinkgrin:
I don't support Romney. If it were Herman Cain, or Ron Paul, or Tim Pawlenty, I'd be voting for them, because I'm casting my vote against what I perceive to be the bigger threat to our country.
Your vote for Romney is gonna be counted on election night as FOR Romney. Now you can mince words and say that's not support, but that's support.
You perceive Obama to be a bigger threat than Romney for the next few years of the country. I perceive Christians endorsing the worshiper of a false god as being far more detrimental to the eternity of those in the country.
So you worry about the here and now. I'm looking at eternity.:thumbsup:
If he gets elected, I'll be praying that Romney meets Christ and is saved--just like I do for Obama.
So the god he serves becomes an issue AFTER Obama is defeated? Have you prayed that he meets Jesus Christ before getting elected?
I just envision the atheists and the agnostics and the pluralists going "why are you trying to talk to me about this Jesus Christ? You didn't have a problem supporting a candidate for President who worships a god that ain't yours, so why should I believe you when you say that I need your God?"
Fine. My witness for Christ isn't affected by who I vote against. I'll still be witnessing to the unsaved, and I'll still have a home in heaven.
Yes, and if they ever ask you who you voted for, please explain to them how you desire that they accept your God for salvation, but you endorsed a man for President who does not.:thumbsup:
