If You're On the Fence About Your Vote, This Pastor Clarifies How the Very Future of America
charisma news ^ | 08/11/2016 | DR. JIM GARLOW

I have been asked "the question" so many times regarding Trump or Hillary. By way of background, I have followed every national convention—Republican and Democrat—from the time I was age 9, and have attended most of the GOP Conventions from 1984 to the present. I have watched the news virtually every day from the age of 8. I have never seen anything like what we are observing.

In spite of the unprecedented nature of this election cycle, I will attempt to respond to "the question." I am not demanding that anyone else share my view. But I was asked. Here is my best attempt to answer as I am able to see things at this time:

1. The Democratic and Republican party platforms are as different as night and day, in my opinion, as far apart as evil vs. good. The 51-page Democratic platform is the most leftist ever. (I don't care for the "right vs. left" nomenclature. I am far more concerned with "right vs. wrong.") The Democratic platform contains many points which are anti-biblical. (Time does not permit me here to identify what is meant by "anti-biblical," which is covered in my new book Well Versed: Biblical Answers to Today's Tough Issues.) It is thoroughly socialistic (a socialist is a communist without a gun). The 54-page GOP platform is one of the strongest GOP platforms ever. A biblically alert person could be comfortable with almost all of it. Party platforms are a big issue to me. Although some "blow off" party platforms, I do not. Nor do many people up and down the ballot who are running for office. This is a serious and very important item. I have a hard copy of both platforms in front of me now. Most people have never checked out what

I stopped supporting any Democrats after Bosnia, and really got teed off at the Democrats at their last convention when God was roundly booed by all the members of the platform committees.

I’m on the fence.

So I can see hillary voters coming from far away and fend them off.

Insane tight race. Just looked at daybreak.

Trump should gain with visit to flood.

Looks like i picked the wrong time to stop popping valiums!!

If you are still on the fence on election day, you will soon be behind a fence if Clinton gets elected.

I love this one:

“16. Freedoms come in “threes.” Political freedom, economic freedom and religious liberty coexist together. Take one away and the other two will eventually disappear. One cannot exist without the other two. The genius of America is that it had all three, until recently.”

It couldn’t possibly be simpler.

Trump = renewal of American values and virtues.

hillary = Marxist excess, government corruption, national decadence and social decline.

That’s all anyone really needs to know.

I am in complete agreement with Pastor Garlow. But there is a problem: Although most voters can read, they don’t, especially anything that takes a little bit of time and effort to comprehend.

It is thoroughly socialistic (a socialist is a communist without a gun).

I beg to differ. Socialists, with guns, who hated communists:

Socialism IS communism.
