This morning, I think I can deliver my message with the following scripture. As we approach a new season in electing a leader, I would challenge everyone to consider the issues seriously.
Paul told the Corthians:
See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ. Colossians 2:8
In Rome he said:
For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.
Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and they exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
Therefore, God gave them over in their sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity, for the degrading of their bodies with one another.
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the creator-who is forever praised. Amen. Romans 1:21-25
I wouldn't call that an even exchange....if that's the case, you lose.
