Why You Must Vote

Evolution is not a scientifically proven theory. In fact, it both defies the definition of the scientific process and has nothing to support it in the fossil record. Yet it is being taught to our school children and flaunted as truth by knowledgeable intellectuals across America.

Faith, Economics, and Foreign Policy

One single matter perhaps most negatively endangers our economy right now in America: the national debt.

The national debt has grown to a figure that is almost intellectually incomprehensible. This astronomical debt is not a sin, but it puts us in a very difficult position. Proverbs 22:7 says that “the borrower is servant to the lender.” Not only are we servant to someone other than God, but we are not able to obey Romans 13:8, which says we are to “owe no man anything, but to love one another.” “In debt” is not a good place to be.

Capitalism vs. Socialism – Pastor Mac Hammond

Pastor Mac Hammond explains the two most prevalent paradigms regarding America’s economic future: the socialist economic philosophy and the free enterprise paradigm (capitalism).

Traditional Marriage Matters

After God created the heavens and the earth, he created man and woman to share their lives together. It is upon this relationship that our society has been built. Marriage is the first institution. It is the cornerstone of our culture. It has been defined the same way for thousands of years. And today, in America, this principle precept of our society is under attack.

On Election Day Minnesotans will be asked to decide whether or not our state will define marriage as between one man and one woman. We need to and must defend traditional marriage.

Some have argued that conventional marriage is past its time. Others assert that those who defend traditional marriage are bigots. Neither of these positions stands up to scrutiny.

The Greatest Influencers Should Be Christians

“Christians are supposed to be the greatest influencers operating in the world today.”

Faith and the Moral Foundation of America

Two pillars of America’s moral foundation are currently under attack: the right to life and the definition of marriage. If we’re going to continue in God’s blessing as a nation, our society cannot tamper with these two things.

Let me quickly address the first one. The most basic inalienable human right granted by God and our constitution is the right to life. When somebody takes another’s life, they have robbed them of the most precious thing of all—the opportunity to experience God’s destiny for them. In addition to that, the Bible makes it clear that life begins at conception. That being said, if you want to vote scripturally, the issue of abortion needs to be taken into high consideration when voting at the polls.

Christians Voting – Pastor Mac Hammond

Faith and Our Political Influence

Christians have a responsibility to put men or women of the Bible in office. That’s not just my words; that’s a statement backed by the Bible and many of our founding fathers including John Jay, our first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. He once said:

“Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers and it is the duty as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.”

The Judeo-Christian ethic our nation was founded upon is the only thing that has made our democracy work and kept it from being corrupted for as long as it has been.  As John Jay and many other founding fathers knew, the only way to ensure America’s success continues is to be certain we have a government that respects that principle and develops laws accordingly.

Founded on the Principle of God’s Word

God’s Dream for America

God had a dream. He wanted to produce a nation that would become the springboard for bringing 85–90% of the Gospel into the rest of the world. Because of that dream, He launched America as no other nation in history on the precept of His Word. He built a nation that guaranteed the rights and freedom of its citizens to pursue their own choices in life. America became a beacon of hope in a dark world.

Now such as never before in the history of this nation, I believe all of the things we hold dear as Americans are in jeopardy. What we do in this next election cycle is going to determine whether God’s dream for America is truly realized.

A study done back in the 1970s demonstrated approximately 60% of the source material for America’s founding documents came directly from the Word of God. If you include indirect references (input from other people that was sourced from the Bible), the number can be bumped to around 80%.
