God & Religion

A relative, to remain unnamed, says that we are not electing a preacher, we are electing a president. My question, not to her because I don't care what she has to say, but to anyone else is this, Why would I keep my core beliefs out of my decision for president? My core belief is that we were created by God Almighty & He sent His precious SON (His baby!!) to die on a cross so that I would be allowed into His Heaven if I accept Him as my Lord & Savior! This belief should form my opinions in all matters.
All decisions that I have made in my life have not been centered on this idea. The decisions that I have made in my life that were for myself & without thinking about what God thinks have ended in disaster in my life. Even now, all my decisions are not centered where they should be. I am working on that & trying very hard to always think of what God wants me to do.
So, again, why would I keep my beliefs out of my decision for president? I wouldn't! My beliefs are my fundamental center. My core beliefs are what makes me who I am. My decisions are based on what I believe! My beliefs are not a religion but a relationship with my Creator.
Abortion is my number one issue. I don't believe that God appreciates a woman's "right to choose". God, our Father, knows us by name & knit us together in our mother's womb. He knows the number of hairs on our heads. There is no one that can tell me that He is happy that people have made murdering His precious children okay.
I feel sorry for a person that thinks they can keep their fundamental beliefs out of their decisions. You can't because what you believe is who you are. Maybe some don't believe in anything & I really feel sorry for those people.
I will not sell out my future or the future of my children by voting for the most liberal Senator in Washington! Liberals have given us legal abortion, the idea that homosexual marriage should be accepted & welfare. I will be voting for John McCain & Sarah Palin on November 4th. I am praying without ceasing that people would wake up & see Barack Obama for the danger that he is. There are people that are so blinded by their own ignorance that no matter what happens they will be voting for Obama but for anyone that is on the fence or that actually has core convictions the choice is glaringly clear.
I hope next Tuesday all Christians will vote their core beliefs & convictions. I will be!

The Biggest Reason I'm A Conservative Republican

The thing that makes me sick during an election year is the unknown. By that I mean you really can't know until the end of the day whether or not anyone actually listened to what the candidates were actually saying. There is a group, hopefully small, that vote for the liberal guy no matter what. They don't really know what he stands for because he's never actually said what he stands for. He's used alot of smoke & mirrors & for a liberal who is not much of a thinker he sounds "eloquent". They think having "liberal" ideals makes them cool or sophisticated when really it just makes them wrong.
Liberal ideals have given us legal abortion. Murdering the closest people to completely innocent that there is. Then, if one of these INNOCENT BABIES make it through the attempted abortion liberal ideals have said that it's okay to go ahead & "finish the job" so that the mother is not "burdened". Barack Obama said in a speech, talking about "educating" kids about pregnancy & STD & the issue coming up with his daughters, "I don't want her punished with a baby or an STD at 16". PUNISHED WITH A BABY! Are you kidding me? Did you know that Barack Obama has already said that he would sign a bill called "The Freedom of Choice Act" within his first 100 days. This act would make ANY abortion, late-term & even partial birth, legal. They use the line "because of the mother's health". I believe that it will be open season on precious unborn babies if he is elected.
This issue alone is enough for me to detest liberalism & all that it stands for. While there are countless other issues, this one should make anyone think twice before voting. I will continue to pray every time this election crosses my mind. I hope that all Christians will pray! I know God will hear our prayers.
