Jesus, being the King of kings and Lord of lords, is a royalist. How He would vote is, therefore, not particularly relevant.

Cizik observed, "The two political parties both have a blind spot … [t]he Republican Party's blind spot is race, and the Democratic Party's blind spot is abortion."

How about the Republicans' blind spot is immigration and the Democrats' blind spot is logic?

non-poverty programs as unrelated to the Christian's main calling

SOCIAL GOSPEL ALERT!

Those who are not in Christ are not held accountable in the same way before God. It is true all who don't profess Jesus will go to Hell, but while here on Earth, they are not required to follow Him.

Fauntroy lamented...He also spoke of the dangers of poverty.

I agree. We need to stop Mexico from exporting so much of it to the U.S.

t]he Republican Party's blind spot is race

All races are welcome in the Republican Party...just some races and ethnic groups prefer to believe that the Democrats actually give a damn about them outside of election time.

"Even with the diverse views represented on the panel, all the panelists could agree on at least one thing: even while there would always be a diversity of opinions regarding how Jesus would vote, Christians should be knowledgeable of current issues and vote based upon that understanding."

Christians should make sure they know Christ. Then, learn about issues and events and vote based upon how the former Truth affects the latter truths.

Christians should eschew forcing biblical morality on the wider population using the democratic process. Christianity is a choice, freely made by those who choose to follow Christ. To expect those that haven't made that same choice to live as if they have is unfair to the unsaved. The unsaved should not be forced to live as if they are saved, that is a sham morality.

To put it another way, Christians are supposed to lead the unsaved to the Path of Light (by living and preaching the Gospel), and not use the police powers of the state to force the unsaved onto that Path.

Jesus would vote that you take all your money and give it to poor people. IOW Jesus would vote Democrat.

"One Body, Many Political Views ("How Would Jesus Vote?" Seminar)"

Jesus wouldn't vote. He is the Almighty Lord, Creator of the universe, so what would He care about a human political party? Anyway, as corrupt as Washington D.C. is today, Jesus would probably send a tornado over that place before He'd vote for anyone there.

I am not sure how Jesus would vote, but I am pretty sure he wouldnt vote for anyone who would kill one of his children by sucking its brains nor would he vote for any advocate of such a horrible operation.

I concur with others that Jesus would never vote. He's not coming back to establish a democracy or a republic.

Jesus is a monarchist. However, if He lived today in the U.S., He would not vote for any party or candidate that supports confiscatory taxation, which is just armed robbery by another name.

[ One Body, Many Political Views ("How Would Jesus Vote?" Seminar) ]

Jesus was/is the King of another Kingdom Not of this planet.. as he told Pontius Pilate.. and is merely a political visitor here..

Jesus was/is whom he said he was, AND STILL IS....
-OR-
Not whom he said he was/is, AND STILL ISN'T........

The answer to this dilemma is why you and I were BORN...
And how you live this life answers this dilemma...
No slackers, everyone addresses this problem...
One way or the other.... WHAT A BRILLANT PLAN...
