My hope is not in a man, or woman. My hope for this nation is not in McCain, nor Obama. I'm sure that the news media, and the internet folks, and the email politickin' can dig up dirt on all the candidates....and apparently, they are. Should we expect anything less? I mean, after all, they are all human beings who sin and who fail to be all that they should. So, my hope is not in man.
Now, I will vote for McCain/Palin, not because they're so much morally better than Obama/Palin. I will vote for McCain/Palin, not because Obama had connections with terrorists. I will vote for McCain/Palin because they are conservative in their worldview. That's why I will not vote for Obama/Biden. McCain/ Palin best represents my Christian worldview on issues that are very important to me; things like abortion, and taxes, and the gay agenda, and gun control, and the environment, etc. But, I will tell you right now that it would not surprise me to find out that McCain did something bad 15 years ago, and some reporter has dug up the story to tell us all about it. It would not surprise me at all to find out that Palin said something, or did something that the news media will try to make a big deal out of. I'm not voting for McCain/Palin because they are error-free and sinless. I'm voting for a fallen man and woman who best represent what I feel is important for our world. And, God help us if a liberal, socialist like Obama/Biden gets elected. We will be in for some hard times in many, many ways if Obama/Biden get elected with a Democratic controlled Congress to back them. God help us.
But again, my hope is not in McCain/Palin. My hope is in Jesus. And, this world will not ever be made right until the Lord returns and makes it right. So, yes, I will be voting for McCain/Palin, but my heart cries, "Come quickly, Lord Jesus!"

Obama is the most dangerous man in America.
He is a greater threat to this nation than is Bin laden.

CB,
I thought you were dead!
David
(the above statement is a joke... coming from a John Wayne movie where everyone thought he was dead when he came back home)
Not Quite. (from the same movie :-)
Yet, Obama will kill this country as we have lived free in it like no other before.
He will be worse than was LB J or Jimmy Carter.

CB,
I think you are right. My family and I voted early today. We all voted for McCain. I asked the man at the polling booth if they'd been busy...he said that they were very, very busy...more busy than ever before. There's a huge turnout for early voting in this neck of the woods.
David
Vol,
Go get all your family no matter how distant, far removed or the nature of the feud and get them to go vote McCain-Palin.
All the future generation of Vols and their American freedoms depend on it.
We must defeat the Obamas, Carters, Clintons and Big Daddy Weaves or they will destroy this nation.

Actually guys the finger is writing the fate of the US on the wall as we speak. It is due to our unwillingness to refute the monster of abortion and God is tired of it. Those that are supporting Obama will get what they deserve and unfortunatley so will the rest of us.
Jake,
I sadly agree.

Obama=antichrist
CB,
You know what next Saturday is.... dont you? The Vols have to play Bama and Satan...errr, I mean, Saban.

David and CB Scott,
"Come unto Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" (Mt. 11:28). "Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you. I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty" (2 Cor. 6:17,18).
This election has polarized Americans as never before.
God will put in power whom America "deserves."
These are "watershed" times for believers. Will we trust in the Lord no matter what? After you have done your civic duty in voting, continue to "Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in His wonderful face. And the things of earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace?"
Wayne
Wayne,
If God gave America "what it deserves" America would go to hell.
We need the mercy of God right now. That is what I am praying for my nation. I think that is a biblical prayer based upon study of the prayers of OT saints as they prayed for their nation and also as I read the way Jesus instructed us to pray in the NT.
Therefore I pray for Obama not to become president for he has revealed himself not to be a follower of Christ in any way. And even a theological dwarf should recognize that. He is not even a good American. He is a socialist.
I will vote McCain-Palin and if you have any discernment at all so will you.
Wayne, I have not posted much in recent months, yet, I still read many posts and comment threads and I have read many of your comments and recognize you to still be spouting that same old venom toward conservatives who seek a solid biblically based Baptist identity.
I want you to know I already have my eyes turned toward Jesus and that is why I stand against Obama and everything he stands for in this election.
Now, you need to cowboy up and vote for McCain-Palin and stand with the right thinking Christian, American statesmen in this country and seek to influence others to do the same.
Obama is the most dangerous man in America right now and you need to understand that and do your part to stop his destructiveness from infesting
(Obama is worse for America than is an infestation of head lice to an elementary school.)
anymore people than it already has by seeking the victory of McCain-Palin and praying for God's longsuffering mercy upon our ungodly nation.

CB,
We are conservatives and always vote for the Biblical and Conservatives issues. We feel the same as you in regards to the candidates in this election. Sarah Palin is the only one that holds to Our view on the Biblical issues.
Pray all is well with your family.
Wayne
CB,
I sent you this e-mail, but you must have missed it.
CALL UPON MY NAME!!!
ONE MINUTE EACH NIGHT
This is the scariest election we as> > Christians have ever faced, and from the looks of the polls, the Christians aren't voting Christian values.
We all need to be on our knees. Do you believe
we can take God at His word?
Call upon His name, then stand back and watch
His wonders to behold.
This scripture gives us, as Christians, ownership
of this land and the ability to call upon God to heal it. I challenge you to do so. We have never been more desperate than now for God to heal our land. This election is the scariest I remember in my lifetime.
2 Chronicles 7:14...'If my people, which are called by my name shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will
heal their land.'
During WWII, there was an advisor to Churchill who organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every night at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety of England, its people and peace. This had an amazing effect as bombing stopped. There is now a group of people
organizing the same thing here in America. The United States of America and our citizens need prayer more than ever!!! If you would like to participate, each evening at 9:00 PM Eastern Time (8 PM Central, 7 PM Mountain, 6 PM Pacific), stop whatever you are doing and spend one minute praying for the safety of the United States, our troops, our citizens, for peace in the world, the upcoming election, that the Bible will remain the basis for the laws governing our land and that Christianity will grow in the U.S. If you know anyone who would like to participate, please pass this along. Someone said if people really understood the full extent of the power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless. Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have.
Thank you. Please pass this on to anyone who you think will want to join us.
God Bless You!!
Wayne and Irene Smith
