Texas was supposed to vote on Super Tuesday.. but a federal court intervened, and as of now we are supposed to vote on May 29, 2012, with any necessary runoffs to be held on July 31st.
Wonder if the situation would be different if the Texas primary, which contributes lots of delegates, had been held on Super Tuesday?
I am sorry I have just gotten around to weighing in on this thread...
Thank you, Jim, for this stand you now take. It is very reasonable and gracious.
Many who plan to “hold their nose” point out how they fear what Obama will do with four more years.
My vote will reflect my fear of God. I fear God much more than I fear Obama. Just the other day, I was referred to a video that asked Catholics to be values voters. I am not Catholic, but I do belong to the body of Christ, and if a person fears God, they know automatically how to vote.
I honestly believe that any **informed** person who would vote for Romney or Obama does not fear God. I believe they honestly think that playing the politics game of “who can win” is more important than honoring, respecting, and fearing God.
That may sound harsh, but the truth is, throughout the course of history, nations who fear God remain, and nations who refuse to fear God fall. We are going to fall because people who claim to be Christians are not 100% in the game.
What really amazes me, beyond the refusal to put God first, is the constant underestimation of God. As if God could not do anything with this tiny little world in the grand scope of eternal existence where the Great I Am is the single dweller?
What might actually happen if every person who CLAIMS to be a Christian, decided to actually BE A CHRISTIAN and refuse to vote for someone who supports abortion, homosexuality, polygamy, and greatest grievance of all— refusal to accept the deity of God?
What would happen is that God would take care of those people.
Who are we in America? Are we Christians or aren’t we. If we are, we vote that way, if we are not, we vote that way. There is really no gray area in the kingdom of God. There is right and wrong, good and evil, yes and no. Being on the fence is making a choice to stand with the devil. God knows that, whether the fence sitter recognizes it or not.
I love my Dear Father so greatly that I cannot stomach or comprehend ever casting a vote for a person who does not respect the Godhead and know the value of a nation led by that Godhead.
I implore all CHRISTIANS who are preparing to “hold their noses” and vote for Romney to prayerfully consider this passage and DARE to put their faith in God and not in politics.
