Summary: Our war is with the spirit and not with the flesh. God ordains the Powers that be. Vote, but don’t get involved in all the rhetoric, the damage has been done, its time to repair it.

Politics and Christianity There has been many an article about this past election. Some, praising Christians and some condemning them. As for me being a Minister, I’m disappointed in both sides. Politics have no place in the Church. Jesus would not have voted for neither. 2Ti 2:4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. Our war is with the spirit and not with the flesh. God ordains the Powers that be. Vote, but don’t get involved in all the rhetoric, the damage has been done, its time to repair it.

Our missions as Christians are too, 1. Worship God. 2. Preach the Gospel. 3.Be instant in season and out of Season

4. Seek out the Lost if the Church just did as our Lord commanded, it would not have brought this hate toward Christians. Politicians speak of peace in the Middle East, but the Christian community should know better. Look at Gods prophecy for the Middle East. Rev 20:1-10

Rev 20:1-10 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.

And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.

Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Let me ask a question now that you’ve heard these passages from Revelations. Do you really believe that John in the Revelation of Jesus Christ to the Church is True? How many says yes? Raise your hands. Then how can we believe any politician that says that there is going to be peace in the Middle East?

John said in just these few passages that “And I saw”, John was stating facts, a future presentation of war and destruction in the Middle East. 1.”And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.”

2. “And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them.” 3. “I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus.” I had a brother, the other day; tell me that He doesn’t read prophecy because He can’t do anything about it. This is a common mistake that many Christians make. Prophecy is as important as the rest of Scripture. Warning after warning from Christ about the impending destruction of the enemies of Israel, and still many want to ignore the facts of the Bible. Many churches will not even acknowledge that the Book of Revelations is for our time. Many clame that the Book of Revelations has been fulfilled. Paul even warned us not to be deceived by any means. 2Th 2:1-4 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

With all due respect I do not fully agree with all of your reasoning. When this nation was founded politics and Christianity co-existed not only in the classroom but in the church as well. The values of Christianity were deeply imbedded in our government. A great majority of our founding father carried the Bible with them and quoted from it in many of their speeches and letters that they left for us to read. Please understand that I believe that politics within the church is devises and will cause division among the congregation. I speak of leaders of the church politicking among them to gain position. But on the other hand the church should be involves in the politics of our nation. The church has turned a blind eye to the lack of integrity and honesty of those that represent us local and federal. The responsible of the godliness that runs without restraint in our government and our society rest squarely on the shoulders of the church. The Church silenced by Madelyn O'Hara thus casting the Bible and Prayer out of our schools leaving our children with guidance. In 1973 again the Church only groaned as the Supreme Court made it legal to murder the un-born child infecting this nation and even in some church with the spirit of abortion. Now the Church has embraced homosexuality destroying men and women lives and causing the destruction of marriage. I could go on with several other examples but I stop with this, that sin and lawlessness unrestrained will destroy this entire nation and the Church is all that stands in the gap. It saddens my heart when I look at what our nation has become, but it breaks my heart when the church of God does not warn the people of the coming destruction. Written with deepest love and concern. God Bless You My Brother. Pastor Dale Carter Sr. Harvest Fellowship PCG. Lonoke, AR.

P.S. The Church, The Schools and The Government walked and worked together with one purpose in mind and that was to build a Godly Nations. When the Church failed the others went wild.
