You may be what you call a Christian but you are not a Christ follower if you voted for Obama. And that is settled!!!

However, since this election is now over - and all who is a true follower of Christ (aka Christians) understands that we must still pray that God's WILL is still completed in this matter.

But again I say without apology, you are not a Christian if you voted for Obama. Christians follows what Christ our God tells us to do in His Word.

On a final note: Oprah calls herself a Christian too. So is it okay for her to serve Tolle and Christ? People are just calling themselves Christians now days because it is popular. But only those who follow Christ are Christians. I think the name Christians is the root of Christ in case someone forgot.

God bless all who read this post and I pray that you are trusting in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour!!!! He is the only True and Living God!!!!

It appauls me that ANYONE who claims to be a Christian can vote for a candidate that is for abortion in any situation...It is a creation of GOD and there is no gray area. Black and White. If you think the economy is bad now and chaos is happening, lets see what happens if a candidate is elected to let this continue. CMON Christiians WAKE UP and vote with your heart. Every ONE of us will have to answer to our Father for what is happening if we continue. Economy, heath insurance,the war, none of it is as important as GENOCIDE of God's innocent creation!!! He will bring us back to where we need to be if we quit killing his precious creations!!

Deeth is an abysmal journalist...can't the Independent Iowan find better than this? These candidates are deserving of so much more respect and dignity. Even if you don't agree with their political views, there's certainly a more intelligent way to write about them than was displayed in this article.

And shame on that so-called 'man of God' who uttered blaspemous prayer over the McCain-Palin gathering. God loves all his children. God doesn't choose sides with his children. He hears only the RIGHTEOUS petitions of his beloved on BOTH sides. That preacher is still lost to God.

I pray that God will reveal, to all believers who vote, which candidate can help us through our difficult times the best. But understanding they are fallible human beings, I know there will be some disappointment ahead as well. Begin praying today that your heart, mind and soul are on the things of God and not on your pocketbook. Anything less will bring about change we probably deserve but would not want!

"And Lord, I pray that you would guard your own reputation, because they’re going to think that their god is bigger than you, if that happens. So I pray that you will step forward and honor your own name with all that happens between now and Election Day.”

Childish rhetoric for childish minds.

Very few Christians believe that Jesus has a grave to roll over in. They believe in his pysical resurrection. You seem to be more in the Jefferson tradition -- Jesus as a great moral teacher, and no belief in his divinity, godhead, or immortality. That's okay with me, but most evangelicals and catholics will be offended.

You are incorrect in your logic. God, is not an idea, or something that you can just decide how "it" works. The Bible actually spells out who God is, and what that means. So, if you are praying to "Allah" you are not saved. If you do not have a relationship with God, and Jesus Christ, you are not saved. So no, they are not "the same thing". By any means.

Actually, He isn't in a grave. I do however agree that they don't know anything about the concept of love.

I don't think Christianity represents ignorance AT ALL. In fact, I think quite the opposite... & it's sad that you have hardened your heart to the truth.

How ironic, Obama's preacher said to "exterminate whites or be exterminated"

Weird.

Now you are being holier than (thou) others. What lies, what innuendoes? What is your idea of truth? I feel I am doing the right thing by disputing what you claim. You hurt because you I speak the truth. I do not feel Obama should be the President of the greatest country in the world, the United States of America! Remember what is great about this country is that it is a FREE COUNTRY! One has the freedom of choice and the freedom of speech!

Remove your hurts and be at peace, just VOTE JOHN McCAIN!

The Weirdharold is a very long story. Much too long to post here. However I lived in Egypt for several months and I developed friendships with several Muslims. To place Fanaticism on 1.3 billion people is senseless and dangerous to think we can state a a war with all these people when most want only their daily bread for their family and themselves as do I. The fanatics have an agenda, so do we and it is called OIL.

kerosine:

No need for an investigation. I have it on good authority that both JOHN McCAIN & SARAH PALIN
are true redblooded Americans. Hillary Clinton is too! How is it Mrs. Obama is only now proud to be American, because she feels her husband is a candidate for the Presidency? That is pseudo-Americanism. Anyone who wants to be in America should be proud to be American!!! You do not sell your country short.

Now you are even lying when you say you represent Rush and Hannity. Just speak for yourself as I am. I am not a racist. I just love what America is all about. So do a lot of people like you.

I do not have to have you investigated, just VOTE JOHN McCAIN for President. He is the true American for America.

McCain's having been a POW is one of the good reasons for voting him as President! That emboldens me to entrust to him (McCain) the fate of this great country! Whatever retains America to be what the forefathers made it, is in my interest. I am sure it is in yours too.

Christian[ity] has nothing to do with the presidential elections, but the other choice is a candidate with muslim tendencies or a Jeremiah follower . . . that is dangerous!

I have to be ignorant to think on your terms. To fight terrorists think like one, to think like you I have to transpose myself into your position so I can ask you to VOTE FOR McCain!

If you live by the golden rule, then you are a complete hypocrite my dear.You are spreading lies and innuendo about Obama.Do the right thing and speak the truth.Or better yet, just shut up.

If you are not an intellectual don't go pretending you are one.

How do you think you sound? What did your candidate say that was intellectual? Did you notice he stutters at times--I i i i i. . .

How does one sound intellectual in a campaign? Obama copies, he should be a contestant in the program "I AM NOT BETTER THAN A FIFTH GRADER"!

Just VOTE McCAIN and we will all make this nation as great as it is if not greater!

Most of the personal attacks were done by Hillary Clinton another democrat. Are you saying Clinton was lying?

Let's not fight, just VOTE McCain and I will think well of you!

This is straight from the university of Rush and Hannity.Now I know why they say that extreme patriotism can be a refuge for racists.We are still waiting to launch a full scale investigation on Sarah Palin and the Alaska independence party.Then voters shall determine who is true to America.

Weirdeharold:

I agree.

Only 9/11 is so vivid in my mind and it was done by Muslim Fanatics. Then I hear how Ahmadinajed talks. How he is going to wipe out Israel. Then I hear the clerics. Remember Rushdie? Believe me it is scary! To most Americans it is one big joke because they are a happy people. I do not want that change!

Why do you call yourself weird?

Senator Obama has his whole plan listed on his website, all spelled out, in clear concise language. John McCain's site has two sentence answers that sound like the ones he gives in his speeches;"I know how to fix the economy", "I know how to find Osama bin Laden"... blah blah blah. He had Phil Gramm write his economic policy, Phil Gramm who engineered the Enron debacle. And if Senator Obama is such a friend to Bin Laden, why does he want to bring the war back to Afghanistan, where Osama is, when McCain wants to stay in Iraq till we have "victory" there? What is "victory" in Iraq any way, what would define it? It might be easier to achieve it if we even knew what it was we are working towards. But you vote how you want. I am a Christian, but I have known many Muslims in my life, and I assure you, you scare me a lot more than they do(not that Senator Barack Obama is Muslim, he isn't, ; but it shouldn't matter if he was). Why does Sarah Palin always prefix the word terrorist with the words "Islamic Fundamentalist"? Was Timothy McVie not terrorist enough to stop? Hatemongers like you suck; do you think God color coded everyone so even morons like yourself could make accurate value judgements on people with out those headaches you get when you try to think? I read the bible, I don't remember Jesus putting a clause on the greatest commandment that it only applied to "white folks". Besides, Jesus was from Galilee, which is near Palestine. He probably looked more like Senator Obama than Senator McCain, despite what a Charleton Heston flick might have you believe. If you think about the mindset of our founding fathers when they laid the ground work for this great nation, (who used the words "divine providence" to not impinge on any one religion) and if you read the words they wrote in the Declaration of Independence, and view your own hate filled diatribe with any objectivity, you would cry yourself to sleep. While Senator Obama makes me proud to be an American, it is people like yourself, Karl Rove, Sarah Palin, and the good reverend Conrad that makes me feel ashamed of being white. If you think that you have some right to tell Americans what they should do or what they deserve, then maybe you are in the wrong country.

True, I might sound like an immgirant, just like you. It really makes not difference. I am just for America and I see that in McCain! Just VOTE for McCain the true American and I am for you. The sermon on the mount could not have been what terrorists of the 9/11 read, I know McCain is not for those that did the 9/11! They were done by muslims, ergo I do not like people like them.

Are you for Obama because my English is bad? What is at stake is America not my English! I know I made a term paper on the Bible, but am not an expert on it. My religion is based on the golden rule! I don't do unto others what I do not wish done to me!

I am not pushing for hatred, I am pushing for the retention of what America is all about. Get it!
