And that is what you’re gonna hang your hat on...
No I don’t wear a hat but so many Christians have hung their hats on leaders with NO morals/values. I doubt a moral candidate could stand a chance with wide awake/conscious people looking for subliminal/hidden messages. Maybe it is too late because I don’t see very many Christians who love, lift up, or forgive each other.
A Christian is NOT like wearing a hat, something that can be put on and off. Being a Christian is who I am and that part of Huckabee I understand.
I don’t know how well you think you understand Mike Huckabee, but I respectfully suggest that you look again. He is exploiting the symbols your faith for political gain, and then lying to you about it. You may feel happy and comforted to hear kind and supportive words out of his mouth, when your faith seems to be under attack in so many quarters, but step back and look at what he has done, and how he is lying about it now.
Before you hitch your wagon to Mike Huckabee, realize he is going to do this sort of cheap and manipulative stunt over and over again, and he is going to lie about it over and over again. How do you think that is going to work out over the long haul? Is that going to lead people to Christ, or are people going to become cynical as it becomes clear that Mike Huckabee is a manipulative huckster? Is the glory of Christ going to be revealed to the World by people of good faith like yourself speaking to your neighbor and bringing forth the Good News, or by a slick operator like Mike Huckabee exploiting the symbols of your faith for cheap political gain and then lying about it, over and over again, before the next day dawns?
Think about it. Is that going to harden the heart of the next person you talk to about Jesus?
