Your Vote, Your Reasons

I feel sorry for the kid who thinks he's the anti-Christ, but finds out he isn't.

That kind of let down has got to suck pretty hard.

Wouldn't it?

You've been primed to unleash death and destruction upon the world only to find out you're going to be a CPA in a ty marriage.

Kind of like getting an apple/small change in your pillow case on Halloween.

There's no "with us" implied in that statement at all.

Anything that suggests a "not them" automatically implies a "with us."

[angel_luv]

so in your opinion, Mcain could "possibly" be the antichrist too?

I would be surprised if he were... he is not well spoken nor greatly popular.

Again, it is possible that neither man is the anti christ.

My thinking Senator Obama could be the anti christ is similar to someone looking at a tall person and wondering if they play basketball.

Senator Obama fits SOME of the description, enough, in fact, to make me wonder, but that doesn't settle the fact that he is.

I only brought it up because I was asked.

As I have said repeatedly... only time will tell.

Non-Christians have been President and I for one think that our country and the world has suffered as a result.

As a Christian I pray for bosses bosses and for presidents that are Bible believing, spirit filled Christians.

I want anyone who is making decisions that affect me and my family to be walking under submission to Jesus, because that is when the greatest blessings come down.

so all the bad decisions taken in this country were taken by non-christians?

holy molly

Scary.

How do you think non-christians feel about this? Are their beliefs not as important? Is this the home of the free or the home of the free (as long as you're a born-again, fundamental christian)

[DarkReign]

it's the most tolerant and loving thing in the world once you understand what it means.

There's no "with us" implied in that statement at all. Salvation entails the folloiwng: admit that you're sinner and deserve punishment, accept Jesus'
crucifixion as payment for your punishment, and then grow in faith.

there's absolutely no way to earn your way in to heaven, because we all fall short of the glory of God. We're all the same in God's eyes.

I was going to phrase this into a question, but decided not to because it isnt worth it.

There is no interpretation needed on such a simple sentence as...

"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

...as spoken by Jesus himself. You cannot pick and choose which way you want it, Christian. The Bible is an 800+ page metaphor or its very, very real.

If its real, no interpretation is needed or required. None. The words mean exactly as they say. The only way to salvation/heaven is thru Jesus. There is no other way. PERIOD.

If its a metaphor, then I'll accept your answer.

You are ing sick in the head and need help. Test need to be done because you're ing irrational and psychotic. Even a ing Christian doctor would lock you up in a padded christian cell for observation. Its beyond me how someone can walk this earth and feel that only people who worship an imaginary figure are capable of making sound decisions. How ing sick are you to think that this world has suffered more by non christian leadership when one of your ing own is sending men and women to their deaths for his own personal agenda. Get help and get it now before you have kids.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

See, now that response would have been far better for the health of my ing thread had you said that instead of this antiChrist nonsense.

You're not one of those "Obama is the anti-Christ" people, are you?

[CuckingFunt]

My thinking Senator Obama could be the anti christ is similar to someone looking at a tall person and wondering if they play basketball.

No.

No it's not.

Your thinking Obama could be the anti-Christ is more like looking at someone with a Super Mario Bros. t-shirt and wondering if they're going to anally and vaginally rape you, simultaneously, with your own amputated limbs.

Now, now... let's not be irrational here...

[angel_luv]

So you just vote on religion alone?

My primary concern is electing someone who loves, listens to, and obeys Jesus because when you seek Jesus first, all things are added to you.

But yet still you refuse to accept anything other than your own self stupidity. Absolutely ing amazing at how dumb you are....so dumb that you even point out how unfounded and stupid you are but yet you refuse to change.

This my friends is a perfect example of someone with a serious brain disorder. Like alcoholics or drug addicts that know they shouldn't do drugs, might not even want to do drugs, but are totally incapable of seeking treatment.

[angel_luv]

I don't see why angel_luv should be worried about Obama being the Anti-Christ. If he is, then as soon as he hits 270 electoral votes *POOF* she disappears right off her couch anyway.

I'm not worried about it concerning myself. I know in Whom I believe and where I am going.

But I do care what happens those of you who are not Raptured.

"Poof-ed" as you called it.

[2centsworth]

Anything that suggests a "not them" automatically implies a "with us."

please clarify. There's absolutely zero difference between any of us. Going to church and trying to act "Godly" doesn't make you any different than anyone else biblically speaking. As far as heaven and the verses DR alluded to, the way to understand that is that we all deserve punishment because for all have sinned and will continue to sin. Jesus is the only payment for that sin.

By your definition, Teddy Roosevelt was the antiChrist.

"Roosevelt was a great personality, a great activist, a great preacher of the moralities, a great controversialist, a great showman. He dominated his era as he dominated conversations....the masses loved him; he proved to be a great popular idol and a great vote getter."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_Roosevelt

So fear not, the antiChrist already came and went before you were born.

Disgusting. You shouldn't be allowed to vote. Not now not ever.

so you would have voted for Hitler huh?

Actually it's more like you been eating magic mushrooms and wondering if those dinosaurs are real...

[romad_20]

This guy totally ed things up

TJ: "You know I loves the mochachino!"

[boutons_]

dubya was "sold" in 2000 as born-again, pro-life guy.

He's now got the wasted blood of 100s of 1000s on his hands. Praise The Lord.

There's a special place in .... for dubya.

So that would be a yes.

@ Viva

Yes, I get it. She wasnt the first to mention it, totally agree.

But you know what Im saying.

the bible tells you in a literal sense what "through me" means.

It's not brain science.

If Jesus is the only payment for that sin, then the millions of people on this planet who follow non-Christian religions are just ed in the afterlife. "They" don't get into heaven, "we" do.
