God’s will, man’s stupidity and Borak Obama
I was reading today about “covering authority” - A doctrine I no longer believe in and have intentions of blogging about further in the future, whist reading about this I came accross this site and it made my blood boil!
I am not really into writing abusive hate mail but this man made me want to email him such a letter and I would if I wasnt sure he would see it as conformation he was doing Gods will and that I was simply persecuting him.
Really I am sick and tired of these types of pastors who claim to have the ear of God and then out come disgusting arrogant nonsense that is based on such a narrow conservative world view and is total and utter crap!
What a small and powerless God he must believe in.
He goes on to say the judgement for the election of BO will abound. How would he know? And I am sorry but if the state if the USA right now is what happens when “God’s will” is carried out then we all need to invest in bomb shelters to protect us from the terrible things that will happen in the next four years- what a crock!!!!
Why does it have to always be about whether a candidate is pro life or not that defines him as a Christian? What about war mongering, not feeding and clothing the naked and not loving their neighbors?
Don’t get me wrong I believe that life is life wether its 2days or 40 weeks post conception but that it is my own personal belief and is based on my faith, not a political bent. And in my opinion a pro life stance is little compensation for the disgusting things the apparently “God chosen president” did during his long reign in office. Not to mention there a more poor in America than ever before
Before the last election in Aus I read a book called Gods Politics and it helped me to see that my vote is needed but that I should vote for people who’s policies line up with my core values- and do you know who that was? The Green Party, most Christians in Aus would see them as anti christian and they are not perfect but they were the closest by a long way. So I shall be voting for them or any independent that stands up for the environment and the poor from now on
Anyway I have had my little vent and feel much better

But I have always just said it wouldn’t be worth the energy, for exactly the reason you stated: anything he disagreed with would only be perceived as either a)coming from an unhealthy person or b)persecution by the “enemy”. You can’t win when people are convinced they are right. Sometimes it’s healthy and provides closure to share our feelings with someone who has hurt us, for our own peace of mind. But I’ve told my husband it would be a cold day in hell when our opinions and experiences actually mattered, even just long enough for someone to think about them for a moment without immediately discarding them.
I had to read some Dutch Sheets for ministry…sigh, so I know what you’re talking about there. I absolutely agree with you about voting for your own values and not what anyone tells you is “God’s will”.
