Issues of church discipline don’t carry over into the stewardship of a government staffed by mixed believers and unbelievers.
The true issue is independent of any political move. We’ve quit asking the Lord for blessings so as to be exalted in us. We’re wandering around on our own, subsisting. God never wanted us to have the false humility of subsisting, God wanted us to prosper (in spirit, which might or might not mean prospering in earthly goods too, though it could if the goods are dedicated to the Lord).
God’s not there with some big grudge to be satisfied, but he has given permission to lots of demons to come in and nip at our heels to wake us up to the need for Him. We can sock him on the head with new confession and forsaking of sins (instant forgiveness no probationary period needed) and praise and prayer for God’s exaltation.
Get the spiritual stuff right and the physical stuff WILL follow. We’re here ragging on a politician who is as powerless as we are because the power was in the exaltation of God which has been forsaken.
Maybe that is what you thought that I was doing but I was just pointing out that GOD has given us guidance when it comes to picking our “personal friends”. I wasn’t ragging on coburn in this post... obama is evil and coburn is “personal friends” with him. Where better to go for guidance than to GOD?
