Many choices are wrong, but God is still sovereign. <BR/><BR/>And yes, if Obama is elected, I will still follow the law and pay my taxes. However, it will mark dark days ahead.

That they are put in charge because it is part of God's plan? If God didn't want them there in the first place, they wouldn't be?<BR/><BR/>That's what I was taught anyway. Not sure if it's right or wrong, but that's what I was taught. <BR/><BR/>In that case, if Obama is elected, then indeed it is God's plan being executed. And if extend this thought, then every leader is in God's plan, and if we go a little further, everything that happens is God's plan. <BR/><BR/>I used to believe in fate. No more, though. Life is what we make it. If we choose Obama, we get Obama. If we choose McCain we get McCain. I now believe it's just that simple.<BR/><BR/>I'm fading fast....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22267600.post-55646350826686365952008-10-15T21:58:00.000-05:002008-10-15T21:58:00.000-05:00So, wait, did I hear this right?

According to this guy, his god is on McCain's side, and Allah is on Obama's side, and he thinks this is sort of about my god is bigger than your god, my god can beat up your god? Sort of 4th grade philosophy, no?Patrick Gabridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11497038051641691987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22267600.post-64184691294973618212008-10-15T17:19:00.000-05:002008-10-15T17:19:00.000-05:00God must really be pissed at America if the last 8...God must really be pissed at America if the last 8 years is any indication.<BR/><BR/>[Badda bing, rimshot].

God's justice brought bad kings to Israel when they rejected His ways. He would do it again for the United States. <BR/><BR/>You can read Numbers 14 for a similar prayer by Moses. <BR/><BR/>Also, see Genesis 12:2-3 for a promise on how God will react based on our foreign policy. <BR/><BR/>The trend here is so disheartening. The only view that isn't tolerated is Christianity.Robert Sievershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06073575336019621976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22267600.post-17169158454157982472008-10-15T10:32:00.000-05:002008-10-15T10:32:00.000-05:00Don't count on anybody's faith being shaken, Dan. ...Don't count on anybody's faith being shaken, Dan.
