Do you rulers indeed speak justly? Do you judge people with equity? No, in your heart you devise injustice, and your hands mete out violence on the earth. Even from birth the wicked go astray; from the womb they are wayward, spreading lies. Their venom is like the venom of a snake, like that of a cobra that has stopped its ears, that will not heed the tune of the charmer, however skillful the enchanter may be. Break the teeth in their mouths, O God; LORD, tear out the fangs of those lions! Let them vanish like water that flows away; when they draw the bow, let their arrows fall short. May they be like a slug that melts away as it moves along, like a stillborn child that never sees the sun. Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns— whether they be green or dry—the wicked will be swept away. The righteous will be glad when they are avenged, when they dip their feet in the blood of the wicked. Then people will say, “Surely the righteous still are rewarded; surely there is a God who judges the earth.” Psalm 58:1-11 NIV
POLITICS ALERT!
When a person is a sore loser, they snatch at any straw they can find in an attempt to redeem themselves–from falsely promoting an election that is rigged against them to deliberately deceiving the masses by promoting untruths.
Not many people may think about who alerted the media about the letter Director Comey sent to the Republican chairs and the ranking Democrats about the possibility of having pertinent information regarding emails–“connected” to Hillary Clinton’s aide. In fact, the director himself provided a misleading missive to those he sent the letter, which was later explained, but too little–too late to keep truth in the forefront. So, the letter had to transmitted to the media by those who sought to re-ignite the embers of a campaign that was burning out with more lies–and the Republicans had more to gain from this information than the Democrats so I’m guessing–the Republicans are responsible for the misinformation promoted.
With a flailing campaign and low poll numbers, the great Deceiver pounced on the breaking news with his own breaking announcement–not waiting for details–but giddy with the idea that his frenzied crowd would be elated and they were with chants of “lock her up” before they knew it wasn’t about Hillary. But does that matter in the greater scheme of things with a deceiver? No–mission is accomplished–the die has been cast and the roars of the lion–drowning out truth.
The saddest part of this whole situation is that not one person seems to understand how deliberately this information was handled–designed to create more distrust of Hillary because the other candidate hates to lose. He has gone from cries of “foul play” to igniting insurrection by his followers and on more than one occasion has encouraged others to “take her out.” One man has already “inferred” that since he is a patriot, if Hillary wins, he will kill her. That’s how dangerous this candidate is–in promoting that kind of hatred in this country, in which no dictator reigns.
How anyone can continue to believe that this character–who falsely claims any knowledge of God, and we can see it in his actions–is beyond me. He is a con man of the foulest magnitude! Supporting him as president of the United States is inviting poison to spread throughout the country and watching it seep into the core of the earth.
Fortunately, for those of us who know Truth and Trust God–his endeavors will not get far, for the righteous know how to pray and expect God to act on behalf of those who truly love Him. No weapon–especially not the lies promoted by hatred–will prosper against those who love The Lord and seek to please Him, only.
A half-truth (cherry-picking details) is a whole lie! And we know where liars will end up for their eternity has already been prepared for them.
“By the end of a day that brought stinging criticism of Mr. Comey from both Democrats and Republicans, he appeared on the defensive, saying in an internal email to bureau employees that he had felt obligated to inform Congress, and “we don’t know the significance of this newly discovered collection of emails.’’ NYT
Mary, it is a very simple choice for me as a Christian… I am voting Republican, because they are the Pro-life party… The Democrats are pro-choice… I am not voting for Trump because I believe he is a Christian…or because he is a good person… On the contrary…he is not polished like many politicians… I don’t believe he nor Hillary are walking in the Spirit… But I KNOW Hillary believes in pro-choice, which is not what God would approve of…

Blessings my brother-in-Christ!
I understand your position only too well, but I disagree on principle–based on The Word. The word “choose” appears in the bible 59 times. From the beginning–in the garden–God gave Adam and Eve a choice to obey Him; He did not make them do anything and they had to deal with the consequences of their choices.
“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD”. Joshua 24:15
God is yet allowing us “choice” and we know and understand the consequences of our choices, the onus is upon us.
But let me be clear–being “pro-choice” is not an endorsement for abortion–though many attempt to make it so. Being pro-choice is allowing a woman to make that decision–for herself–since she is the only one who has to live with the decision. If we stop respecting a person’s ability to choose–we judge without having all the facts–and that’s not our job. If God didn’t want us to choose what we do–He could have cloned us and made us totally robotic in our obedience to Him. Since God respects “choice,” I concur with Him.
So, while I respect your choices–in doing whatever you feel led to do–you should also respect the choices others make. The evidence against Trump (from a biblical perspective) is too great for me to ignore. And while I don’t agree with the democratic platform in its entirety, I do believe the best interests of the American people will be better served by them. You see, I believe in the power of prayer and I’m trusting God to speak to Hillary and that she will hear and obey in all that He directs her to do. Trump–doesn’t hear anyone but himself and that much is evident in what he says and does on a regular basis.
For someone to listen to “conspiracy theorists” and to promote hatred and bigotry to the levels that he does–“instigating thoughts of violence and killing an elected president,” is purely demonic. None of his rhetoric is even remotely a semblance of Godly behavior.
At any rate, this will be exactly what God has already determined it will be. My trust is in Him, not a political party.
Love to love you,
Mary
