The proposition of these short Facebook posts is to challenge the thinking of Christians who have disconnected their voting choices with any sense of Biblical precept. I am certainly open to challenge as well as addition to any of the foundational precepts I have put forth. My only caveat is that it must be tied to the Scripture. Please do not suggest tactical strategy or instantly offer the, “We can’t give the election to THEM” retort. I want to hear a clear exegesis and exposition of what the Lord would expect of us as Christian citizens. It must be tied to precept because should you post it, know that I, as well as others, will evaluate it. This is not to cause division. It is to cause a Biblical fidelity and accountability to begin to take place.

Great question.
The answer is best summed in the following videos that I highly recommend…
