God and Government Part 1

Should Christians Vote?

October 6, 2024 • Pastors Ralph & Joanne • Proverbs 29:2, Matthew 28:18–20, Isaiah 9:6–7, Matthew 6:33, Romans 13:1–6

First of all - let’s clarify our role in this. We stand as your pastors, and not just as two people who have opinions on this.


This is our God given job description….


2 Timothy 4:2-5 AMP

Preach the word [as an official messenger]; be ready when the time is right and even when it is not [keep your sense of urgency, whether the opportunity seems favorable or unfavorable, whether convenient or inconvenient, whether welcome or unwelcome]; correct [those who err in doctrine or behavior], warn [those who sin], exhort and encourage [those who are growing toward spiritual maturity], with inexhaustible patience and [faithful] teaching. For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine and accurate instruction [that challenges them with God’s truth]; but wanting to have their ears tickled [with something pleasing], they will accumulate for themselves [many] teachers [one after another, chosen] to satisfy their own desires and to support the errors they hold, and will turn their ears away from the truth and will wander off into myths and man-made fictions [and will accept the unacceptable]. But as for you, be clear-headed in every situation [stay calm and cool and steady], endure every hardship [without flinching], do the work of an evangelist, fulfill [the duties of] your ministry. '


Truth is hard to find right now - so we MUST go to the Word.
