Needled by Mitt Romney and other Republicans, Democrats hurriedly rewrote their convention platform Wednesday to add a mention of God and declare Jerusalem the capital of Israel after President Barack Obama intervened to order the changes.
The embarrassing reversal was compounded by chaos and uncertainty on the convention floor, requiring three votes before a ruling that the amendments had been approved. Many in the audience booed the decision.
The episode exposed tensions on Israel within the party, put Democrats on the defensive and created a public relations spectacle as Obama arrived in the convention city to claim his party's nomination for a second term....
well, first when deciding which of the three candidates to vote for is to discern the truth.....not talking points are words of persuasion, but what has actually been done, voted for, etc. until that happens, its just a game.

The point is if you don't vote, then you should not complain about the results as you chose to have no say in it. If we had to vote for the perfect candidate, then no one should go to the polls. We have to ascertain which party, when voted into power, stands up more for those values we hold dear. (As a side comment, wiki leaks confirmed wmd, he used them against his own people, don't think any value in that discussion) If Gov. Romney did not pay his taxes the IRS would be knocking at his door. This is not a religious exercise per se, it is a constitutional one. Whether we vote democratic, republican, independent, etc. or chose not to vote, as Christians we need to remember we will stand before the judgment seat of Christ and give account. "When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked bears rule, the people mourn." Proverbs 29:2
So my dad would have vote for someone he would not want in office? Let see Our President- A Crislam Against Israel Liar No... I don't think so Now Hamburger Helper- Mormon Does not pay his taxes Liar No thank you The independents: God only knows Note: this does not mean he had to be a Baptist to get voted, just look at what happen with the reign of Baptists. So with that what am I suppose to do.
KJV English speaking-Onlyist wrote: Mat 1:7-9, Luke 4:5-7 Satan had that right ..
Satan having control over the earth since Adam forfeited to him, is a Word of Faith false doctrine. If Satan rules, why did he have to ask God permission to do things to Job? Not vote?? As Edmund Burke once wisely said, "All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing." If in your congregation they decided to put up for a vote the use of the KJV or the NASB and you decided to NOT vote, does it make sense then that people would say your silence was your vote and you have no right to complain that the NASB is now the official version of your church. That is the principle your pastor is trying to teach you.
Daniel 4:31b,34,35...until you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever He chooses. And at the end of the time I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me; and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever: For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, And His kingdom is from generation to generation All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; He does according to His will in the army of heaven And among the inhabitants of the earth. No one can restrain His hand Or say to Him, “What have You done?” Psalm 24:1 The earth is the LORD's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. (see also I Corinthians 10:26) Ephesians 1:22-23 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. Colossians 1:16-17 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by

Well John, we are blessed with the best name on the planet, Jesus excepting. But if your name was Imani Diot, would YOU want to post under it?

Well, Now THE "JE[W]SUITS"--Who CONTROL The REPUBLICAN Party--Have OBVIOUSLY Had Their Way In The DEMOCRATIC Party's CONVENTION With Adding "God" (Really The 'god' BAPHOMET [aka SATAN ] & "JERUSALEM As (GREATER-)ISRAEL'S Undisputed CAPITOL" !
"And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
And that no man might buy or sell..." REVELATION 13:11-17

What an odd thing to say.
Since when?
The Old Testament is full of examples of godly kings and leaders who led the people in righteousness.
As I see it, the Almighty God has ruled in his creation from eternity past without ceasing and without ending. I don't recall seeing anywhere in the Bible that God gave Satan permission to rule.
Now you might think that because Satan "tempted" our Lord God, that what he was claiming was true. But he "tempted" Eve with an untruth also. As one has said already, he is the father of lies, and his strategy most subtle.
Sure, the Lord grants him some liberty, but he is "king" of nowhere. Unless you have some scripture proof that this is the case?

The Devil was defeated before the rebellion began.

At the Cross, his people were justified. Christ now rules and reigns

There is no question the US is drifting into deeper wickedness, and that we have corrupt politicians. Bur remember, Satan was defeated at the Cross, and his doom is sure
Martin Luther (A Mighty Fortress is our God)
3)And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, we will not fear, for God hath willed his truth to triumph through us. The Prince of Darkness grim, we tremble not for him; his rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure; one little word shall fell him.

Satan is a liar, and the father of lies....why believe him?
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
