Should Christians Vote for Democrats?


Should Christians Vote for Democrats?

“Don’t become partners with those who reject God. How can you make a partnership out of right and wrong? That’s not partnership; that’s war. Is light best friends with dark? Does Christ go strolling with the Devil?”
– 2 Corinthians 6:14-15 (MSG)

I’ve heard Pastors say, “It doesn’t matter who a Christian votes for or what political party they support. We’re just called to love Jesus.” Uh, sorry senorita. That’s spiritual-sounding stercore tauri.

I think it does matter. If a political party is cool with…

  1. Murdering unborn babies (Hos. 13:16; Ezk. 23:29).
  2. Same-sex marriage (Rom. 1:18-28; Mt. 19:3- 6).
  3. Teaching 5–9-year-olds that sodomy and transgenderism is groovy (Lk. 17:1-2).
  4. Declaring only white people are pure evil when everyone, outside of Christ, is radically corrupt (Rom. 3:9-18).
  5. Bowing to godless foreign countries that hate America (Ezk. 28:9).
  6. Allowing a lawless invasion of our Southern border (1 Tim. 1:9; Rom. 13:1-5).
  7. Being unable to define what a woman is (Gen. 1:26-28).
  8. Big dudes competing against smaller women in sports (Prov. 20:23).
  9. Forcing little children to wear ineffective face masks and take ineffective vaccines (2Jn. 12).
  10. Publicly booing God at their National Convention (Isa. 1:4; Prov. 24:24).

If a political party does the aforementioned (and supports many other anti-biblical policies) then they are officially raging against righteousness and a Christian would be sinning if they supported that garbage (Prov 4:14; Jas 4:17).

Governments are supposed to protect and praise what is good and punish what is evil. That’s “good and evil” as defined by the word of God and not Netflix (Rom 13:1-5; 1Pet 2:13-15). When a government ceases to do that then the Christian is duty-bound not to support those less than civil magistrates (Acts 5:29).

Why Do Churches Separate The Young From The Old? 8 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES It’s weird that the Bible champions the older schooling the younger, and yet, your typical American church removes the older from the younger and tosses their tutelage to an over-ebullient twentysomething. The discipleship and mentoring of young people was the duty of older generations. They’re the ones that the fresh squabs were to get their biblical wisdom, character, and faith stories from. Hello. Herewith are a...

When Life Kicks You In The Teeth... 3 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES Herewith, are seven little nuggets on how to steady oneself for growth in God and in life when (not if) you get kicked in the teeth by some bad crap. Stay objective. David said in Ps. 42:5 (NASB), “Why are you in despair, my soul? And why are you restless within me? Wait for God, for I will again praise Him For the help of His presence, my God.” I don’t know if you caught this or not, but David is talking to David. David is taking an...

Get A Job Before You Get A Dream 1 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES One thing that gets overlooked about Joseph is that before God dropped an epic dream on him the scripture states that he “was pasturing the flock with his brothers while he was still a youth…” (Gen.37:2). So, what’s my point? Well, it’s this junior: Joseph had a job. He wasn’t living off mommy’s American Express card. He wasn’t some pasty skin, indolent, indoor boy. The young dude ran livestock. He’s not spending fifty hours a week...
