American Politics, Christian Conservatism, and the Onus of the Almighty
I have a lot of American friends involved in this years presidential campaign. And honestly, I hate to think of the resources which Satan has cleverly diverted from the gospel in the name of the American elections and political agenda. While many Christians are campaigning for conservatism between now and November, it is projected that 2,000,000 Americans will die. Every Christian political campaigner who knocks on 30 doors, will encounter 1 individual who will enter eternity before the next election. This means that if an average of 150 homes are visited, 5 of these people will meet God in judgment this year. It’s just 5! But before 2012 that will be 20. And for every commitment obtained, its’ just that- one commitment, one vote.
No souls.
No eternal rejoicing.
No salvation from the leaping flames of hell.
Four years from now, you will have to convince the same people to be conservative again. They will vote conservative now, even though they may still be living liberally in sin. Every soul reached for Christ will still be saved in 2012! Consider your obligation on account of 5 or 20 souls. On pain of sounding sacrilegious- and believe me I say this in the utmost fear of God- if Jesus Christ were to be here today might he not amend his question of ultimate purpose to ‘what shall a man be profited, if he win the election, but lose souls?’ What if we win a few votes for conservatism, only to lose the voters in the liberal judgment of God for eternity? Will God hold us blameless? Christians in America, let’s get on with the real agenda!
What if Christians in the United States actually pulled through and had the conservatives on pace for a complete sweep of the presidential elections- but the Lord returned first? 310,000,000 Americans might be brought under the auspices of conservatism- but 250,000,000 or more souls should find themselves swiftly under God’s judgment. If we had any notion of God’s holiness, the horror of Gods judgment, and any love for our fellow man- we would not be knocking on doors for ‘My Candidate 2008′- but recklessly pleading with souls to take ‘The Man Christ Jesus‘. Is this a time for playing games with souls? May God encourage us to keep on with what is important to God in light of eternity- and get out the message that will bring real change for Americans!

[...] February 18, 2008 by Steve In the midst of a society whose news is dominated by politics, where over half a billion dollars has been spent on personal leadership campaigns even before the presidential election has even begun and sadly much of it by ‘Christians’ who should know better, maybe we all need to read Brandon Burley’s latest blog post, “What are we doing here?” [...]
