I was bombarded with that same logic in my email this morning from some Christian websites about king saul. I wasn’t sure how the church was going to flip the results with the bible. I knew if Mc cain won, the message would be God didn’t want Obama in power because he wasn’t Christian. If Obama won the church would say he’s the anti -christ. I never thought about saul, which I must say is a good angle.
To say this country is not really Christian when President Obama wins is weird. The reason to elect McCain and palin was to protect Christian values., protect this Christian nation from a supposed muslim. The banner raised repeatedly against President Obama was this is a Christian nation and we the christian people will not allow him to be president. So I’m a bit confused now to hear anyone say this was never really a christian nation when everyone voted based on this country being a Christian nation.
Some reasons people are upset about the results.
I know many people who claim to be Christians but have no discernment
They thought the elections was about their feelings and emotions.
They never once thought..'' maybe its not my will but God's will be done ''.
Fear lead many to vote.
Don't let fear keep you from praising God even if you don't understand, or can't discern what HE (God ) is doing.
Trust God not man...not one of those political leaders quoted.
2Chronicles 7:14 ( I've stated in previous threads ) So if President Obama looks hopeless to many what hope was going to come from Cainy if 2Chronicles 7:14 was not his resolution for the country. We would like to think we know better but we really don't....It's always God's will.
I'm not angry or sad because I never looked at any one of them to be my messiah. My hope and trust was in the Lord, so I'm able to say '' Father I praise you for my life is in your hands.
‘’
If you are sad or upset, you need to ask who did you put your trust in man or God? If it was man, its understandable that you would be dissapointed now.
I trusted God, so I still have my joy.
I was obedient when he told me to pray and only pray, I didn’t part take in placing fear on people. My message through out this election was trust God. You didn‘t get what you wanted, so what.
Rest assured God knows what he‘s doing, he doesn‘t need our approval. Just trust him.
Thats God's business...
I'm not sure if your post is directed at me or just in general.
Maybe you misunderstand my stand in all this, I was not for either canadate nor am I an advocate either political party, I like America but I am a foreigner here here in this world. All I am stating is the majority got what they wanted. There's a very profound difference between the christian religious institution and Christ's ekklesia. If you have ever read any of my posts I hope that you are aware that I am not an advocate of the carnal religious system that is typically referred to by most today as christianity. I have seen this for some years now. Nothing really new happen yesterday other than the hearts of many have been revealed.
I am definitely not upset but rather excited about what lays a head, typically most people (believers and non-believers) do not really turn towards God until things go sour.
