What Is Your Vote Worth?

It's coming down to crunch-time! Some of my friends have already voted and I plan to soon. How about you? Do you know why this election is so important? No, it will not challenge the sovereignty or alter His plans. But He has raised up this government and used the lives of millions to shape our country and give us the privilege to vote. Please don't waste your opportunity.

That's why my post today is to help bring the main issues into focus before you vote. The first article comes out of Massachusetts and it details the changes in that state that have already come to pass due to homosexual influence. And same-sex "marriage" isn't even legal there yet!
PLEASE! Take some time to read this first article to feel what this issue will do if it's allowed to spread like a cancer across our country:
What Same-sex "Marriage" Has Done To Massachusetts
It's far worse than most people realize

This next article is by Randy Alcorn on the abortion issue and how it effects his vote:
Commentary: I'm Not Voting For A Man, I'm Voting For Generations Of Children And Their Right To Live

And here's a video that's being promoted by Focus on the Family for some, odd reason ;-):
Online Video Calls On Christians To Get To The Polls

Pray for our country. Pray without ceasing. Pray that God's will would be done and that no matter what the outcome, we will live each and every day to glorify Him and learn to enjoy Him forever.

Rich, if you get the n&o (michelle had a current event paper due) it has perfect articles for a Truth Project illustration about Christian morals and Obama thinking that US doesn't need to be beholden to them anymore because we have folks from all religious persuasions...Yikes!

Thanks for the heads-up, Karen! We do not get any newspaper. I tried searching for that article on the N&O website but found nothing. If you see it online, I'd appreciate a link. Thanks!

This is an opinion article that if you look to the links you can read the Obama address for yourself. (which I have not done)I just found it interesting, I may read it, maybe not.I would like to hear your take.

Yeah, that lawyer with his editorial is a pretty slick guy. He sees right through Obama. It is kind of strange that he's commenting on Obama's speech almost 4 months to the day after it was released. Kind of old news.

Here's a link to Dobson's radio broadcast where he replied to Obama's biblical ignorance and agenda in that speech:

Obama Drags 'Biblical Understanding Through the Gutter'

And here's a link to a CNN piece trying to summarize Dobson's position:

Evangelist accuses Obama of 'distorting' Bible

America is in such a sad state of bliblical ignorance that most people think Dobson's whacky for calling Obama WAY off base for most of what he said. I think even Kimberly could spot the holes in Obama's rhetoric.

And it's not an "accusation." It's a fact. Obama knows all the right words when talking to "people of faith" but has little idea of what God's Word truly says. End of story. Case closed.
