God cares more for the rightous people in a country,than the name of a country.

Wow, we agree again. This is getting scary. Too many falsely believe that America = Christian = God's chosen nation. Can't deny the fact that God has blessed this nation, but He can remove His blessing just as fast. Also many believe that Republican = Christian, another fallacy.

Heard recently that Christianity is now growing big time in China. Something to ponder.

Why do the folks on the left side of the aisle not get it. They are surely intelligent enough to see that Christianity is exploding in many former communist countrys or why the Cuban community in Miami generally votes rebublican. They know first hand what its like to live under the oppression of a socialist/communist government. It does not work folks, please take your blinders off.

I'd have to look closer but it looks like the Cuban American vote in Florida broke for Obama.

I don't really think god prefers either of our parties or despite the rhetoric in here either party is against freedom and for oppression.

Yes, the President being re-elected was for God's purpose, whatever that may be. I never once claimed that I knew what that purpose is. As I said in my posts, it could be to bless this nation, and it could be for the purpose of destroying this nation. I personally feel it's the later, but I'd be a fool to claim that I know the mind of God, and believe me, I hope he uses the President to once again bless this nation. But that's OK, if you folks want to ignore what I actually wrote, and twist it to fit what you want it to say, go right ahead. No skin off my back.

George wants to go outside. Grabbing an MB 3 and joining him, so blast away.

Religion isn't my thing, so I'm not so good at interpreting the actions of something I don't believe exists...

However, IF I were a person who believed that an omnipotent/omniscient being were purposely dictating the results of an election between two parties; and IF I believed that this omnipotent/omniscient being actually wanted what's best for me; THEN I'd have to come to the conclusion that either the policies or candidates that my party was supporting were in some way bad for me.

Honestly, I'd assume that anyone who really truly (as opposed to just giving lip service) believes that their god controls everything would switch parties to whatever side wins each election.... since their god made that person win....

Your argument is based on fallacies. I believe that God places our leaders in power FOR HIS PURPOSES, WHATEVER THEY MAY BE, because Scripture states it. Your assumption that who is president, or what happens to this country has anything to do with God taking care of His people is false. This was my sin on election night. Not trusting God to take my family and I through the next four years, though He had proved over and over again His faithfulness during the past four.

This country could go to hell tomorrow, or be destroyed in God's wrath and judgement, yet God will be faithful to His people through it all, even if it means talking them home to be with Him. Since sadly, this world is all you have, I know it's a hard concept for you to grasp.

Just because God placed the President in power, at this point in time, for His purpose, does not mean that God is pleased with the President, nor does it mean that His people where to vote that way. It would have been immoral for me to vote for the President, and doing so would have been sin.

I know none of this makes sense to you, and you think I'm nuts, but I understand. You have to have a regenerated spiritual mind to understand spiritual matters, and you just said you don't even believe god exists. May God give you His grace.

For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart." Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
