TRUE HEARTS EXPOSED

My friend did you know God has His ways of exposing truth and our heart condition for all in the world to see? Sadly this was the case at the Democratic National Convention (DNC). I am not sure if you missed it or not, but the Chairman of the DNC tried to reverse the original Democratic platform on two critical points; first to recognize Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel and the second point (which still baffles me today) to include the word “God” in what they believe. Now I am sure the Democratic leadership changed their position based on the potential loss of votes from Christians in their party and more important because of the Jewish vote in Florida which is huge, but both were wrong reasons to change. Jesus told us, “O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” (Matthew 12:34) Whatsoever is really in our heart will come out our mouth and we will be exposed for what we really believe, this is how truth operates. My Christian brothers and sisters the election in November is really about what is in our hearts (for all in the world to see) not what we believe about politics or what political party we belong, but what we really stand for and believe before God and man. Remember our testimony is not what we say, but what others see us do. This election in November is a test for the Church in America to find out what it really stands for either the truth found in the word of God or will it be moved by swelling words of promise and a better day in the sweet by and by. This election in November will reveal the true heart condition of every person who calls themselves a Christian whether they be of truth or a liar, this is how integrity and honesty works. How can you call yourself a Christian and deny the written word of God in favor of politics? How can one support a party that gives credence to a society that endorses things God calls an abomination (which is open rebellion) and still call themselves a Christian? If you think you can you only deceive yourself and the truth is not in you. It is true in November we will decide what kind of country we want to be, but it will NOT be a vote about jobs, our economy, our foreign policy, it will not even be an ideology vote between candidates, but it will be a vote on what kind of country we want America to be spiritually. Do we want to be a country that values life or snuffs life out often based on selfish convenience? Do we want a country that supports marriage (the bedrock of every culture and civilization) or a country that says anything goes: two men, two women, one man and four women, what is next animals? The Bible tells us in Jeremiah 17:9, “The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked who can know it?” God and those who know God. Do we want a country that is founded on the God-given foundational truths and principles of the U.S. Constitution or do we want a country that is subject to ever increasing international laws and is governed by global consensus? You can vote and I encourage you to, but if you vote for a party that sanctions same sex marriage, glorifies the creation while denying the existence of the Creator, validates the indefensible murder of babies especially babies partially born, and does not even want to mention the mere name of God please do not call yourself a Christian it is an insult to the billions of Christians who have laid down their lives for the Gospel message throughout the ages and an affront and an open handed slap to the face of a Holy God. President Obama is our president, but he is not our king. As a Christian we live in a different kingdom, we answer to a higher power, we answer to the King of kings, we are measured NOT by our political positions, birth rights, or even the color of our skin, but our character, we are measured by God’s word and His laws. I am not a Democrat, Independent, or Republican I am a Christian and my faith in God and in His word compels me to vote for the truth. Do we want a country where God is some afterthought and not spoken in society I think not, but make no mistake my friend all hearts will be revealed, God will see to it. The choice is ours.
