Should Christians Vote for Democrats?

1 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES
“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).

I Beg Your Pardon, Jesus Never Promised You A Rose Garden 5 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves. But beware of men, for they will hand you over to the courts and scourge you in their synagogues; and you will even be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. But when they hand you over, do not worry about how or what you are to say; for it will be given you...

The Enshittification of The American Church 5 MIN READ ◦ DOUG GILES I was watching a Theo Von podcast a few nights ago and his guest used a word I’d never heard before and I’m a wordsmith. The word was "enshittification." I obviously got the "sh*t" part of the word, and the "fication" application as well as the negative context in which the word was utilized, so I just had to look it up to see if it was legit and boom … it is. For the newbies, "Enshittification" is an intentionally crude term...
