Faith or Fear?

Tomorrow is election day. It’s the day when much of America will turn out to cast their vote for the next President of the United States, among other offices. (Maybe I’ll post one day about the Electoral College, but not today.)


The throng of voters will include the most extreme liberals and the most committed conservatives; Christians and practicing witches; professional murderers and clergy; upstanding pillars of the community and welfare scam artists.


Every ideology will be well represented, from Marxism to Christianity and everything in between.

The interesting thing, though, is that the vast majority of them will probably vote for a socialist.


They will cast their vote for a man who is either wholly ignorant of our Constitution and the ideas behind it, or is actually hostile to those very ideas;


A man who has violated his oath of office time and time again;


Who has introduced, cosponsored, and supported legislation designed to abridge, infringe upon, and trample our God-given rights into the ground;


Who has robbed us of our hard-earned money for unconstitutional and often immoral purposes;


Who plays the political game well, catering one minute to those who want to see a return to Constitutionality in one particular area and the next to those who would see it destroyed altogether;


Whose policies drive us closer to amalgamation with the rest of the world under one tyrannical government that will eventually be run by Antichrist himself;


In short, a man who, if elected, will further destroy the United States of America.


Why will the American people vote for such a man?


Fear.


Combined with ignorance, fear has enslaved the majority of the world population for most—if not all—of history.


Fear of what will happen if they don’t vote for the “Party’s Annointed”.


In Iraq not too long ago, it was fear that they would be poisoned, shot, or tortured.


Today in America, it’s fear that “something terrible” might happen, although most of the terrible things have already happened under the administrations of past “Annointed Ones”.


Yes, most of America will be too scared to vote for a candidate who is actually qualified;


A candidate who both understands the Constitution, and fears the God before whom he would, if elected, swear an oath to uphold that legal document.


They will instead vote for a socialist. Some will vote for the one named Barack Obama, others will vote for the one named John McCain. Both are guilty of the evils listed above and many more.


Mark my words, the two may do it a little differently, but both of them will carry on the work of destruction that has driven this once great nation to its knees before the heel of tyranny.


Is there yet any man with the courage and faith in God to take a stand? As John Quincy Adams said, “duty is ours; results are God’s”.


God has been ever faithful to answer the cries of the righteous; those who follow His precepts and stand against the workers of iniquity.


He likewise has nothing but harsh words for those who bow to the reasoning of men, cowering before the wicked and calling for ignoble flight like the ten spies who proclaimed that the course ordered by God was—to use the modern vernacular—“not viable.”


In case you’re still shaking your head, hands over your ears yelling “faithfaithfaithfaithfaith!” remember that faith isn’t following the broad path to destruction and praying that God will change its course, faith is taking the narrow path and trusting that God can handle the rest.
