Obama's very big night in the desert...

Praise the Lord.
Greeting you in the name of Jesus christ the author and finisher of our faith.The express image of God is person and also the invisible image of God. I am a born again Christian, December 17 will mark my 29 years of the new birth. I have lived in America for almost twenty years, i immigrated from Liberia, west africa, October 22/89. I have learned a lot during my twenty years in the United States especially the presidential election beginning with Bill clinton. i am not a conservative or a liberal but a child of God living the God's kingdom on earth although i am a minister in the united Methodist church based in Alexandria, Virginia, but I belonged to the universal catholic church of Christ, I am sorry if i doubled spoke, because catholic is defined as the universal church of Christ, but not in the same category as the so called Roman catholic institution.

Abortion is wrong in the sight of God and some men per-se, killing of the innocent in the mother's wong is considered a murder, I will never encouraged my 22 and 14 1/2 years old to perform it. I deplored wade versus Roe, almost thirty years ago that has shamed America and the future dampen for America as a super power given by God. The founder father reverend Smith who left England with some three hundred settlers for the new world and settled in James town, Virginia, the same location the freed slaves who migrated to my country called Liberia, west Africa in 1822, which modeled after America, and American failed to reconized this independent country until after one hundred years, praise God for England and France who reconized Liberia.

You are right "life never begins at concession but from God" The angel Gabriel called Jesus that Holy thing and Jeremiah was told that before He formed him He knew him, pre-existing may be the bible only narrated Jesus the Christ as pre-existing, but only speaks believers of predestinating, and fore-ordained ok that is a different subject. i loved American conservatives they are very progressive and the demorcrats are no match for them, but there politics is sometimes troubling due to the fact that we're surrounded with a cloud of witness, out lifestyles speaks for the true child of God that he was redeemed by Christ. I don't like when Republicans make this evil of abortion a compaign issue i will correspond three points.

1. America is a freed country and anybody does whatsoever they want to do, Abortion and Gun rights and freedom of speech to name a few. Let examine the debate between John Arminian and John Calvin of "free will" you might used your free will to glorify God, but the sinner's might use his free will to commit murder by aborting the innocent child in her womb. John Calvin poimt was concrete on predestination of certains believers and are elected by grace to go to heaven, Arminian said no if the person used his free will to obey God or not God still loves him but the end justified the means, it speaks of inclusion into the king of God and His Christ, who soever will let him come i will
not cast out. There were million of eggs during concession, but God in His infinite wisdom choose you and me.

2. "The weapon of prayer" The Republicans has been using this abortion and Homosexual as a wedge issue between they and Democrats to their advantage but i fear that one of these day it might backfire, are they interested eliminating abortion if they care about the unborn, the supreme is a gift given them when president George Bush appointed John Roberts and Samuel Alito to the supreme court bench why not used them to bring this crime to an end or christians should stage a protest led by the Republicans to bring an end to this gruesome crime of killing babies.This is not a every four years protest as a prelude for electoral votes, the bible says be not deceive God is not mock, what so ever a man doeth that he should reap. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob will answer the effective fervent prayer of the righteous if Republican call for a 40 days fast and prayer to bring abortion to an end nothing is powerful than prayer.

3. If the Republican care about abortion why are they not reaching out to the poor black and white young adults who cannot aford bringing up a baby, running political ads to wins votes is not enough, the book of James says that to him who knows how to do good and do it not it is a sin. Most Republican are wealthy people, it not perception but reality, if we gave tax cut to the wealthy, why can find solutions to save a life. We should not sounds like John Edwards that there are two Americas, but was involved in extra marital affairs and gave $100.000 to that woman and fathered her child. John Mcain told the audience what they want to hear, but i believed that he does care for the unborn who are slaughter every day in the medical centers of America, neither Barack Obama care for the unborn but for their political gains. Is it true that John Mcain and his wife owns eight houses? November 3rd we will get out of bed to welcome the new commander in lies of this great democracy that is eroding. My brother our kingdom is not of this world, the Republican or democratic parties are Jesus but opportunist for earthly glory, Maranatha Jesus is coming again. God bless you Amen.

OK - one of my students had Barack Obama in her living room last night listening to his wife's speech. She is still floating on air. She commented on how focused he was and how happy he was for her. What a neat evening!

I'd say that election night pretty much said how the two candidates stood with evangelical voters. While the evangelical block may have been a liability for McCain, there is no question as to whether or not he was truly their candidate: he took home 74% of their vote. Yes, this is a drop from George W. Bush in 2004 (78%), but it was decidedly better than Bush did against Al Gore, or how George Bush, Sr. and Bob Dole did against Bill Clinton. Furthermore, unlike in 2004, the wedge-issues such as gay marriage were not nearly as profound. Instead, there was an unpopular war in Iraq (though this has become less of an issue as the surge has been more or less successful) and the largest financial crisis since the Great Depression. All this is to say that if there are many evangelicals who plan on jumping ship (as we have been told numerous times) this election is not good evidence of that.
