While Kamala Harris’s numbers are starting to come back to earth after a disastrous vice presidential debate, things have never looked better for the Californian’s campaign. As much as people have come to rely on the ebbs and flows of public opinion, longtime strategists know that there’s a better predictor of how Democrats will do — and that’s the evangelical vote. Or, as the 2024 numbers warn, the lack thereof.
According to some truly shocking statistics from George Barna at Arizona Christian University (ACU), as many as 41 million Christians plan to sit this election out — more than enough to hand the country’s keys to the eager and radical Left.

The number is questionable. Still, if you (the original poster) believe this, then why truncate your OWN blog entry? Why not shout it from the rooftops (in full)? Or is it about the clicks?
I see the scold is back.
To non-voting Christians: Don’t fret that neither candidate is a Biblical Christian. So Trump has used bad language few times. Are you going to punish America for that — by refusing to vote against his LGBT/communist opponent who has used bad language a few HUNDRED times?
You’re going to hell if you could help stop the communists but refuse. Jesus will spit you or like lukewarm water.
If Christians want Muslim Obozo running the Country again, vote Harris.
Wasn’t it 100 million last week?
Assuming that Christians will all vote for GOP is dumb.
Too many are heretics who welcome queers in their clergy and excuse abortion for any reason etc etc and will vote for the ho.
I agree with your post. I think the not voting thing is mostly laziness.
“Alternatively, according to a Christian family member of mine, if republicans want to represent Christians, they should nominate someone who lives a Christian life and values.”

We’re not voting for a moral leader, but rather a political one. Political leaders have to deal with nasty, immoral and ruthless people both domestically and overseas, and must also know about how our economy and tax system work to be an effective leader. Further, even if one candidate is flawed (and aren’t they - AND WE - all flawed?), there is certainly a big difference between these two particular Presidential candidates on a whole host of issues. The very survival of this country - with all of its flaws still the biggest force for good in the world - is at stake. Ask them why they are willing to see their children and grandchildren live in a tyranny that discourages religious expression, just to not vote for someone whom they likely already voted for in the last 2 elections? Ask them why they voted in 2016 (perhaps to avoid repeating the mistake of 2012, that of not voting for a guy who would have been an OK President because he was a Mormon and, as a result, we got a truly evil 2nd term of Obama)?
Tell them that. Ask them if they want God to someday ask them why they didn’t act to save this country, and left the world to be run by the likes of Russia, Red China and Iran - as if He doesn’t often act through very flawed people. Was Cyrus the Great such a moral person? Probably not, but he is described as “My anointed” in the Bible and he provided funds and protection to Jews going back to Israel to rebuild the Temple. Perhaps - PERHAPS - Trump is a similar leader; Harris assuredly is not.
Tell your “Christian” family member that “All evil needs to triumph is for good men to do nothing.” If they don’t like Trump, they’ll REALLY not like what comes instead of Trump.
The 'reports' that millions of Christians were going to sit out the election of 2024 was panic porn in the first place.
By not voting you are ensuring that your tax dollars are used to butcher babies and traffic children and women.
Whatever you do to the least of these you do to Christ.
So yes, you absolutely need to repent if you refuse to vote when these are the stakes. If you’re gonna pay taxes and not vote, you absolutely have blood on your hands.
The bad news is, if they “sit this one out”, they won’t have to bother dressing up in their Sunday best to go vote in an election again. The RATS intend to make elections a thing of the past.
Render unto Ceasar that which is Ceasar’s. In the United States of America, it is not just our taxes that are to make the government able to function. Even more than that, it is our diligence. The Founding Fathers said from the outset that this form of governance could only work with a moral people. If the people who know the sanctity of human life withdraw from the process, it leaves only unsalted meat. And it ends up with the government stealing, killing, and destroying everything good and right. Including using our tax money - the fruit of all our labors - to kill the unborn, mutilate children, traffic children and women, import enemies who will kill innocents on our streets, indoctrinate all future generations into a worldview that CANNOT accept Christ, and arm both sides of every conflict in order to have wars that will enrich the military industrial complex. That’s just a portion of the evil that our tax dollars are being used for. To be apathetic about those things you can’t have a Christian heart. Period.
“48% believe that the election results will be manipulated.”
A lack of confidence in the election process is problem number one. Even a hint of fraud should be investigated in depth and the guilty punished. Confidence in the process is critical and must be restored.
2020 was a watershed election for a loss of confidence in the process and instead of investing the powers that be refuse. Those who attempt to investigate are punished and even imprisoned.
Voting implies confidence in the election process.
The process must be fixed otherwise voting is an illusion.
You mean like somebody who actually cares about babies being butchered, children and women being trafficked, children being indoctrinated into a worldview which will keep them from ever being able to accept Christ, wars being perpetuated to kill massive numbers of people, the nation using “false scales” to prosecute political enemies, etc?
Look at every one of the ten commandmants and you will find Donald Trump doing a much better job of defending each one. In his rebuke of the Romans, the Apostle Paul said that not only did the depraved people do a list of terrible things, but even worse, they APPROVED of those who do such things. The approval of the bad stuff is worse than doing it yourself, because everybody sins even against what they know is right but approving of what is disgusting is a whole nother level of depraved. And what is Kamala out championing? Murdering innocent conceived children.
Just look at the whole “you shall not bear false witness”. Trump has been called un-Christian because of mean tweets. Jesus would have had a few mean tweets too, don’t forget. He called the Pharisees and Sadducees “white-washed tombs” and said they scoured the earth to win a single convert and when they did they made him just as much a son of the devil as they are. Sometimes speaking the truth in love doesn’t sound like that’s what it is but it still is because sometimes a good, honest kick in the pants is what a person needs.
Contrast that with the incessant lying that has been done against both Trump and anybody who supports him. And not just to tarnish reputations but also to throw people in jail, get them killed, and bankrupt them. We’re talking flat-out evil speech intended to steal, kill, and destroy - the hallmarks of Satan.
People who want to say that Harris is more “Christian” than Trump need to re-think their whole picture of what is Christian and what is not. This superficial crap being sanctimoniously spouted is just that. The devil is trying to deceive even Christians, and Christians are unfortunately falling for it.
Please share with that family member of yours.
This is all true, but the only way we’re gonna fix the corruption of election theft is by winning so soundly that they CAN’T steal the election and then use the majorities we win to actually fix the problems.
It’s what they did in El Salvador. Night-and-day difference after the opposition to communism won in a landslide. Night and day.
And this voting bloc has the power to do the same thing here, if they only will.
I understand fatigue. We are all bone-weary. Anybody who gives the media even an ounce of credibility has to be confused and weary from just trying to figure out what is true. But their problem is giving the media any credibility at all. A little leaven leavens the whole lump, and you only need to see by the Russia hoax, the Hunter laptop, etc that these people constantly lie. A grape vine can’t produce figs, and a bad, evil, lying tree can’t produce good fruit. We know them by their fruits. They are tools of Satan. If people will just figure that out, they can save a lot of wasted energy by just realizing that whatever Satan’s mouthpiece says, the truth is the opposite. Do that, and you won’t be as confused and weary, and you won’t feel like your only option is to be harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
Democraps rely on illegal voters and on their ability to get people to stay away from the voting booth or to single issue vote against their best interests overall..
I was going to say vote like your life depends on it. Sticking your head in the sand is not the answer.
Please don’t put words in my mouth.
I am in the Flood Zone...there are many people who CAN’T vote due to their personal circumstances...they are homeless, the roads are washed away, they are burying their dead.
Priorities, and all that.
‘They’ are trying demonize Christians, to blame them for Trump’s defeat, if such a thing were to happen. Many are walking right into the marxist trap.
My home was DESTROYED, our possessions are GONE... we were spared by God with the clothes on our back...that’s it. We are VERY BUSY trying to rebuild our lives. A reminder to those who want to help...CASH is KING (after Jesus, of course)in the Flood Zone.
