Hi Miccah,
Chris, does Jesus want us to be yolked with cults? We both know the answer to this. So how is this a personal view? The Lord tells us to be seperate, to not have any look of evil, to warn the flock about damnable heresys.
Nothing of a personal view about it. My personal view is to vote Obama out of office and to get someone in there that will stop abortion. My political science degree tells me to get everyone to vote and choose a candidate based on the betterment of the nation. But this election is different. Christians, CHRISTIANS are supporting a Mormon for President, one who WILL lead others down the path of his religion. Christians are doing this with no shame!
Chris. These above two quotes is the issue in the Church today. Knowingly voting for a cult member who's religion leads to Hell.It is like we have all fallen into crazyville or something.

Miccah write.........."It is like we have all fallen into crazyville or something."Its called blindness Miccah, a great deception. Now we must expect those who are blind and deceived when presented with the truth to either 1. See the truth2. Continue to be blind ( oftentimes willful ignorance)3. Apathy4. Anger5. Hatred6. Attack those who stand upon the truth.Now, if anyone knows anything of church history, they will know this is the pattern that has always existed. When a brother or sister would stand up and challenge the Catholic church for instance, they were labelled by the church as arrogant, and boastful and ultimately a heretic. The personal animosity towards these brothers and sisters knew no bounds. Rather than accept that these people disagreed with their position or doctrine, they always took it as a personal attack on them and this fueled great hatred.It is always good to look at a man's words. See what is the abundance of his heart, for out of that abundance he will speak. There is coming a time soon when you will not be legally allowed to say what I and others have said about Mormonism on this thread, it will be considered arrogant and hate speech. Bills have already been attempted in Britain and in Canada to stop the sharing of the Gospel in work-places because of our stance that Christianity is the only way to heaven and all others paths lead to hell. Here is my last word on this thread and may the Lord bless all who will boldly stand upon the truth...........bro FrankOut of the abundance of the heartThe mouth speaksOut of the mouth of an angry manThe mouth shrieksThe world follows its ownAnd in derision it will laughGod's people follow the LordAs He leads them down the narrow pathThe wisdom of the worldIs mere foolishness to GodAnd those who walk the broad pathMust choose to ignore His WordGod's word will be heardAlong the narrow wayAnd there's many a pied piperTo lead the world astrayIf you listen to the siren's callYou'll end up on the rocksIf you listen to the world at largeYou'll hear just how she mocksLook and see who stands up proudAnd like a flag becomes unfurledWhen all they believe is challengedThe ways and the means of the worldGod's ways are not the ways of menWe belong outside the gateHe makes us walk the narrow pathAnd the crooked paths made straightSo many men are entangledAnd adrift in the stormy seaIts better the smite of a friendThan the kiss of the enemyCome now and walk the narrow pathAnd leave the world to its ownSeek Him with your whole heartAnd gather before His throne
Frank,
1. See the truth2. Continue to be blind ( oftentimes willful ignorance)3. Apathy4. Anger5. Hatred6. Attack those who stand upon the truth.
Chris,You keep speaking about the marketplace, the Lord addresses the marketplace.Please show me, in scripture (in context), where believers are to establish and endorse a Satanic leader to lead over them, secular or spiritually...

Well there is no good choice, and for someone with True Christian beliefs, if you endorse either you are still going against everything "most" true Christians believe and stand against. The amount of difference in the two, is not enought to make a difference, we are splitting hairs now trying to justify either. One will win, and neither is going to be the silver bullet to fix the mess were all in, only God can help us.

Miccah,I believe that I already explained this to you. You might want to go back over my previous posts so that I don't have to write my response all over again.Likewise, perhaps you can show me in Scripture (in context) where certain believers can use a public forum to attack other believers who hold a different opinion about this matter, insinuate that they are "blind" and prone to "voting for the Anti-Christ" (and worse) and then pretend that they are the victim when they are asked to not do this.
