Meg, Why would God guide our nation if we won't obey Him. He did not say it's ok to replace one wicked person for another.
Ahab was an evil king. He allowed babies to be sacrificed (abortion today) to idols. When his son became king, Hezekiah, he listened to the prophet Isaiah & decided to obey God, even though it looked like his country was going to be destroyed if he did not compromise. He stood firm and choose to fear God rather than man, and because he did, God saved the whole nation and blessed it. How can we expect God to bless us or heal our nation if we accept sin in our own ranks?
I understand people's fears, but I fear God more and know that nothing good can come from accepting ANY evil. The gop has made it clear that romney was their choice and set this whole thing up so we would feel we have no opinions. We are doing exactly what they want, even when we know Romney is evil. We are suppose to use wisdom and discernment when making important decisions. If he was a democrat, would our side condemn him for being pro-abortion, pro-homosexual marriage/adoption? If I vote for Romney, I would be a hypocrite if I ever spoke badly about a pro-abortion or pro-homosexual marriage/adoption politician running against our guy. The media knows this and will point out our hypocrisy.
You speak the truth. What the ABOs can’t figure out is that if the GOPe can manipulate them into supporting this”lesser evil”, then at the end of this run there’s another comprimise they won’t have the moral courage to refuse. If they won’t stand now, they never will.
