I have added the article "Jesus Christ for President" on the current issues page.  This article appeared several months ago on the Liming View Blog and it received the most hits they ever got on an article.   While I am strongly non-political in my ministry, it bothers me, that politicians like to carry Jesus under their arm, and thump the Bible in order to get votes.  The fact is, that Jesus would have nothing to do with the moral rot and pollution of either party in Washington, and it is high time that Christians start bowing to His Lordship, instead of just giving lip-service to tenets in order to get votes, or to cast the illusion of spirituality.   Dragging Christ through the mud is not spirituality in any way, and thumping the Bible on a stump speech does nothing to Christianize America.  The fact is that America is anything but a Christian country.  We are not now, and never have been a Christian country, and I am glad of that.  Christianity is not intended to govern nations,  and to turn it into that, is simply to prostitute the entire message of the Bible.   You cheapen Jesus, the gospel and the truth, when you make Christ into a political Messiah.  He refused that sort of Messiah-ship when He came the first time, because His Kingdom is not of this world.   Nothing has changed, as is evident from the fact that He is still sitting on His heavenly throne.  Let's not take him from there and bring Him to Washington.  He deserves far better than that.  CLICK HERE TO READ THE WHOLE ARTICLE
