We are not voting for Jesus, we are voting for(in my case to remove) a politician.

I don't compartmentalize my Christianity. Everything we are supposed to think, say and DO is supposed to reflect Christ and Him Crucified. EVERYTHING.

The Founders understood that.

Godly character was supposed to be the hallmark of the representatives we chose to be our standards in government.

We may not be electing a pope - but scripture is clear about the kind of personal requirements God sees as fit for office over a Godly people.

Electing someone with a record of everything antithetical to my faith and Conservative principles IS NOT reflecting Christ. It's surrendering to this evil world and it's standards and values.

If we refuse to be governed by God - then we will be ruled by the tyranny of men.

Here we are. The fruits of compartmentalizing our faith and principles for expedience as a nation and people.

I've repented of it - and will not do so again.
