As I said, I think this speech illustrates the obvious disconnect that exists today between politicians and conservative Christians. For the fully committed Christ follower there are much greater issues at stake of more eternal significance then the political issues of the day. That's a concept that the average politician just doesn't understand. I'm not saying we shouldn't exercise good citizenship. However, Romans 13:1 says, "For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God." That tells me that the sovereign Lord of the universe has this election covered. So again, we need to be absolutely sure that we please Him with our vote and let Him take care of who gets elected.

First of all, we need to be very prayerful. We need to pray that God will bring a candidate to the forefront that believers can support without violating our consciences." I absolutely agree and I think this situation is no different. Also politicians can always say that they are able to seperate their religion from politics however with any devout believer you cannot seperate the religion from the person -- so there will be bleed over whether they mean to do it or not......
