I Corinthians 15:45-47 TLV:
“If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. So it is written, “The first man, Adam, became a living soul.” The last Adam (Jesus, Son of God/Son of Man) became a life-giving spirit. However, the Spirit is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. The first man is of the earth, made of dust; the second man is from heaven…”
‘First the natural, then then the spiritual’, a principle that we must understand that is foundational to understand the Word of God, the message of the Gospel, and the work of the Holy Spirit in our life after we become a believer in Christ Jesus, our Lord.
I want to use this principle to put before you a question regarding this nation’s national election on November 5 (Today is October 30, 2024).
When the electorate in the nation cast their vote, whether by mail, early voting, or on election day, each individual vote represents the heart and mindset of that voter. The outcome of the entirety of all the votes cast will show the heart of the electorate in this nation.
The results may be extremely close or even lopsided.
Who knows?
But an outcome will take place.
Not only will the selection of a new president show the heart of the electorate, but, also, the results for each individual choice, at the state level , will reveal the heart of the electorate, too.
I am concerned.
Why?
Let me ask you, each individual voter, this question?
Will we ‘abort’ this nation’s life, or will we ‘sustain’ this nation’s life?
I believe this will be clearly seen when the votes are tallied, the dust settles, and a direction for this nation has been determined by its electorate.
I encourage you to vote.
I encourage you to vote with a Biblical world-view; not a worldly mind-set that trust in the wisdom of man and ignores the wisdom of God.
blessings to my fellow believers in Christ, deo
