THE CHOICE TO CHOOSE
By Ron Edwards

During election time, many Americans exercise their right and privilege to voice their choices via the ballot box. Unfortunately, more of our countrymen and women sit out election Day than participate in that most worthy enterprise. Currently, the United States of America is reeling from the effects of the most anti American, anti-free market, anti-freedom, anti-charter school, anti-border protection, anti-strong military, anti-free market medical industry, pro-government healthcare, pro open borders, pro muslim, pro amnesty for illegal aliens, pro United nations administration in our nation’s history. That development occurred because, millions of Christian and conservative leaning Americans decided not to vote. Many conservatives were disgusted with former President George W. Bush. Far too many Christians were misled by egotistical liberal leaning ministers who convinced them that elections aren’t important. They would also hoodwink their flock by telling them that issues concerning our nation are not the concern of Christians. Then of course, there were those who were just too lazy to care enough to go and vote.
Such reasoning and attitudes brings to mind the famous quote of Edmond Burke: “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” For ministers and others to promote the false idea that voting is not something we need not to do, is as nonsensical as promoting the idea that oxygen is not needed for breathing. In the study of American history, one will discover that the Christian church was heavily involved in the effort to garner America’s independence from Great Britain. Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States stated:
“The true Christian is the true citizen, lofty of purpose, resolute in endeavor, ready for a hero’s deeds, but never looking down on his task because it is cast in the day of small things; scornful of baseness, awake to his own duties as well as to his rights, following the higher law with reverence, and in this world doing all that is in his power lies, so that when death comes he may feel that mankind is in some degree better because he lived.”
Thus it is imperative for Christians to exercise their right to vote and positively influence our republic by setting an example of taking seriously the responsibility to vote. Good men and women making the right choices through voting is one of the most important ways to establish and continue a positive direction for our nation. Even when the liberals try to cheat electronically in order to steal elections for their destructive missions, they would not succeed if the tens of millions of lazy or deceived Christians who regularly sit out elections, simply made it to the polls to make their choice. Unfortunately, some have bought into the lie that whatever is going to happen, is going to happen and just don’t understand the vital importance of voting. Believe it or not, those that vote and win, pretty much dictate the direction the government will take.
There are those in government, academia, liberal leaning churches, mosques and community activist groups who are hoping the millions of Christians and conservatives who have refused to vote, will continue not to do so. Because then they will continue to witness their interpretation of how life in America should be. The Obama hope and change crowd should not be allowed to cast their nightmare upon our society through self induced defeat by those who refuse to vote.

Recently on an episode of The Believers voice of Victory, host Kenneth Copeland had as his guest Historian David Barton, who pointed out that “many Americans have decided that they have a better idea than both God and the founding fathers of this great nation, without any idea of what is truly good or evil.” Thus the way has been paved for those focused upon evil, destructive policies to temporarily have their way. I say temporarily, because despite what I see on a regular basis, I am convinced that a renaissance of morality, ethics and patriotism wise appear throughout our troubled but still great nation.
“We The People” shall overcome the liberal culture of death, open borders, over regulation, bigotry against Israel and Christians, the gun grabbers and environmental lunacy. If you are a LEGAL U.S. BORN! Sovereign, who appreciates life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, then for every election please go and do the right thing. Exercise your right to vote. Thank you.
