Honor God this election year
Honor God this election year
My approach this election year, is to select the party and candidate who most
honor God.
We have been taught the Bible story of David, who with no prior political
experience, God chose to rule a nation. And you know that while following
God, David and that nation were incredibly blessed. God promises and gives
much to those who follow him.
Any man can fall (as David did), but we can get a better start with one
honoring God now, than one who only mentions God, but has no relationship
with Him. People cannot follow God, when they don't know His voice.
What does "honor" mean? A synonym is "Veneration", which is both the feeling
and the reverential expression of respect, love, and awe. God says if we
love him, we will obey His commands – so a man who honors God will obey Him.
What political candidate and party are most in respect, love, and awe (and
obedience) to God? God tells us who loves Him: it is those who obey His
commands. Who obeys, promotes and defends the commands of God? Look at
these quotes from http://www.constitutionparty.org/party_platform.php
> The goal of the Constitution Party is to restore American jurisprudence to
> its Biblical foundations and to limit the federal government to its
> Constitutional boundaries.
> The pre-born child, whose life begins at fertilization, is a human being
> created in God's image. The first duty of the law is to prevent the
> shedding of innocent blood. It is, therefore, the duty of all civil
> governments to secure and to safeguard the lives of the pre-born.
> All teaching is related to basic assumptions about God and man. Education
> as a whole, therefore, cannot be separated from religious faith.
> It is our responsibility to be prudent, productive, and efficient stewards
> of God's natural resources. In that role, we are commanded to be fruitful
> and multiply, and to replenish the earth and develop it (e.g., to turn
> deserts into farms and wastelands into groves).
> The law of our Creator defines marriage as the union between one man and
> one woman. The marriage covenant is the foundation of the family, and the
> family is fundamental in the maintenance of a stable, healthy and
> prosperous social order.
> God, who endows us with life, liberty, property, and the right to pursue
> happiness, also exhorts individuals to care for the needy, the sick, the
> homeless, the aged, and those who are otherwise unable to care for
> themselves.
I am not interested in blindly promoting the Constitution Party. I
endorse those who honor God, whoever they may be. And that will guide my
vote.
