In case you are really serious, here are a couple quick ones for you: Voting against Barack Hussein Obama.

Sorry, that's covered in the bible...You'll have to try again...

Jas_4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

(Now you’ll have to define what ‘doing good’ is. ;^)

No, sorry, Iscool, the name "Barack Hussein Obama" cannot be found anywhere in the Bible.    "Conservative Christians" would believe that the text you were pointing to might teach them to vote against B-O, while "Liberal Christians" would believe that the text you were pointing to might teach them to vote for B-O.    As a matter of fact, so many self-described Christians voted for B-O again in 2012, and that is why he is your president right now.

However, you've managed to fortuitously stumble upon a very good and valuable lesson, to teach you why the man-made, protestant fallacious teaching of "sola scriptura" is flawed and false.    Individual, private interpretation of scripture can be very problematic and lead people far astray, as St. Peter plainly made known in the Bible.    That is why we have so many thousands of disagreeing denominations, as well as many more numbers of individuals who insist that they know better what all scripture means just by their own personal interpretations.

If you spend some time prayerfully thinking about what you've stumbled into there, you may very well start to see the light, and head for the right Church - the one Church that Jesus Himself founded.

Keep trying there, Iscool.
