Damaging the Cause of Christ….

With elections right around the corner, it so disheartening to see the nastiness of people boldly on display arguing for or against certain candidates. It hurts my soul to see Christians reveal their most inner thoughts. When a Christian proclaims his or her loyalty to a candidate that doesn’t value life, or the sanctity of marriage, I feel sorry for that person. To think that someone who claims to be a Bible-believing, God-fearing, Jesus-follower, votes for practices that God has clearly stated He hates, shows me there’s something wrong with that person’s theology. How can a person who’s position in Christ is eternally secure, and who’s practice is focused on emulating Jesus, willfully violate God’s character? Maybe their proclaimed alliance to Christ isn’t real? Maybe they are truly traitors of the Gospel? Maybe they are in the beginning stages of their walk, and are still struggling with their worldly ways? Whatever the case, it grieves my heart to see these mixed messages being sent out, further damaging the cause of Christ. Pray for those people, for nothing is impossible for God. And more importantly, examine your own heart, and ask God to draw your heart closer to His.

158 Seeing these traitors makes me sick at heart, because they care nothing for Your word. Psalms 119:158
