Pray the Vote - The Presidential Prayer Team

[Wilms]

But select capable men from all the people—men who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain…
--Exodus 18:21

From the first prayer offered at the Continental Congress by Jacob Duché to Ben Franklin’s dramatic call for prayer during the Constitutional Convention, America has a rich and continuing history of reliance on prayer. Whenever our nation has called upon God for guidance and wisdom, He has answered graciously.

When you become entitled to exercise the right of voting for public officers let it be impressed on your mind that God commands you to choose for rulers just men who will rule in the fear of God. The preservation of a republican government depends on the faithful discharge of this duty; if the citizens neglect this duty and place unprincipled men in office, the government will soon be corrupted.
--Noah Webster, Founding Father

1. Does this mean a committment to feed the poor and

care for our nedy?

[Kurovski]

2. They all's gonna need some big-time salvation,

lest the Lord God cast them into the Lake of Fire For stealing elections.

Mark Crispin Miller's book "Fooled Again"
points out the cognitive-dissonance the "religious" folk have about stealing and sin when it comes to elections.


Digest this fruit from the tree of knowledge that hath been plucked from the website:

3. Yeah they might have confused God with profits one too many

times. The Reagan syndrome.

[Kurovski]

4. I never thought of it that way, but you know,

some of them are so generally confused over-all that you may be on to something there. :-)

Jesus was a "profit".

[Erika]

5. Maybe that's where the GOP came up with "profits"

are Godly. Christ certainly didn't say anything close.

[and-justice-for-all]

6. They can pray till they get stigmata.....

We are still kicking them off the hill!!!

[Kip Humphrey]

7. Let's hear it for faith-based Democracy! On the other hand,

give me that "old time" Democracy instead!

[Febble]

8. Well, if they are praying

for honest and just elections, and the election of honest and just leaders, let's hope they get what they pray for.
