I just asked God to show me scripture dealing with tomorrows election and this is what I opened to.

Romans 8: 35-39

35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.

38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

God bless us all! God bless the United States of America!

Ok. I’m going to say something that may seem very controversial to many but here goes. I keep hearing people say that Jesus hung out with the sinners. This is very true. What’s not accurate, is suggesting that he accepted their wickedness and sin. He made himself an example for how to live in righteousness, even though we can never completely live sin free. You see, he went to those people because they needed to change. They had to turn away from evil and turn to Him. He hurt for the lost and came to give us all a way to reach God. I believe He still hurts for the lost and He has charged Christians to continue spreading His Word. We are to love and care for the lost, but not accept their wickedness. It’s not love to tell someone that they’re ok the way they are living. True love will be looking them in the eyes and telling them they have to turn from their wickedness. Caring about people’s feelings here on earth will not save their souls from an eternity in hell. We don’t have to be rude or hateful, nor should we be, but the lost need to hear the TRUTH! Hate the sin, not the sinner! Love them enough to show them JESUS!!

God bless!!
