Deal Breakers For Me

In Canada we are soon to be knee deep in politicians at the door. An election has been called for May in Canada. So we will inundated with visits to place signs on our lawn and support the candidate.

For me it is really simple. I do not labor over who to vote for , waste my time on debates or even long economic platforms because concerning that issue I just don't believe anyone is better than the other. No I vote with really only one real thought in mind.Which party will not openly move the country further away  from the truth of the Bible.

Now before you think I want to force Christian morals , I recognize that you cannot . Sinners we are all , and the only thing that will change a heart dead in sin is the gospel of Jesus Christ but at the same time , laws that govern us help keep evil at bay. Laws against murder,stealing etc.. help stop these evils ,for those who break them know they will be punished , and that is a deterrent .

The deal breakers for me are the hidden sins that fly under the radar. The first is abortion . The fact that a we close our eyes to the silent murder of more than 100000 babies each year , sickens me. Most of these children killed are done so not for any other reason than they are not convenient . The fact that even if one cent of my tax dollars has been used to supply this evil service , makes me very angry. So any party that would seek to widen and increase easy access is off my list . So eliminate the Liberals ,NDP and Green Party. All support for wider access.

The second deals with the redefining of marriage.Historically marriage has always been seen as a sacred institution , given to us by God . Blessed by Him and between a man and woman. It was for the sake that between the two they would enjoy God's gift of sex but also for pro-creation. The two married people would have children and form a unit . This made for a stable society. But in Canada this was struck down and gay marriage has been openly allowed. Although as of right now people of faith( not only Christians hold that this is sinful)can dissent in marrying gay couples , the fact there is a push to silence those who hold that it is sinful and against God's created order , disturbs me. For how long will this be . Those who hold to the Christian faith , and the truth of the Bible need to call all sin , sin and that includes homosexuality. It is a sin that needs to be repented of and like I have said before , not the only sexual sin but it is called out specifically. So once again any party that will not re-look at this issue is out .  So the same list applies.

Perhaps some believers can vote for a candidate that supports and pushes for more acceptance  of both these issues , but  I will be honest , I cannot fathom how.

Verse Of The Day  :         [9] Behold, the day of the LORD comes,
                                                    cruel, with wrath and fierce anger,
                                                 to make the land a desolation
                                                     and to destroy its sinners from it.
                                              (Isaiah 13:9 ESV)
