The link below is an enlightening expose' on leftist motivations. A secular worldview is essentially humanist in origin, which is non-Christian. The Christian who believes in Biblical truth believes in the doctrine of Original Sin (that every person has a sinful nature).

When the "Christian" worldview abandons Jesus' message of love, compassion, mercy, and forgiveness to whom can people of conscience and integrity turn?
Jesus tells these "Christians": Come back to me.

Anyone who votes left or encourages those on the right to not vote or vote 3rd party, (which is a vote for the left by default), is complicit in child murder (“abortion”). That’s going in their file to be opened at the final Judgment. “...and books [files] were opened. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books [files]. Revelation 20:12

No, but the one who did not approach women person-to-person with vigorous and innovative love to encourage them away from abortion will be judged by that omission. Christ was never interested in Christians trying to enlist the king's sword to do the work His people were supposed to be doing themselves.

There are 2,000 children murdered (“aborted”) a day in America, 730,000 children murdered every year. Pro-abortion comes from the left, along with gender confusion and child mutilation if the child makes it out of the womb. You vote left, that goes in your file. That's my "person-to-person with vigorous and innovative love" approach towards you.

Gee, Pope Francis is nowhere near as judgmental as you are, having said that both candidates have some evil positions and that voters need to follow their consciences. And I would imagine he's a whole lot closer to Jesus than either of us are.

No one should vote for a Democrat because they are pro-choice, just as no one should vote for a Republican because he is anti-democracy, destructive to the future of our planet, callously indifferent to the plight of immigrants and even political refugees like the Haitians, callously indifferent to the poor, the uninsured, the homeless, etc., etc.

If one votes for Democrats despite their pro-choice policies, or vote for Republicans despite their anti-climate, anti-democracy, anti-immigration, anti-social safety net programs, etc. his/her conscience should be clear.

I'm not pope Francis.... The planet will still be here when Christ returns... the 750,000 children a year are not. You vote left... that goes in your file.

I wish that we could actually say that the right candidate is actually pro life but unfortunately he’s not. Trump has already stated several times that he’s not going to issue a federal ban against abortion.

Well, it's a good thing God doesn't take advice from you.

What is loving about expanding the power and scope of government to attempt to solve every social Ill?

Those leftist files (“books”) are gonna be thick… and the punishment commensurate.
You've got it right, RD. Notice any people with those planks in their eyes Jesus talked about?

The link below is an enlightening expose' on leftist motivations. A secular worldview is essentially humanist in origin, which is non-Christian. The Christian who believes in Biblical truth believes in the doctrine of Original Sin (that every person has a sinful nature).

We have seen the gradual emergence of the secular State and with it secular ideology such as Humanism and its various manifestations like Identity politics, Trans and Woke ideology.

Up until around the turn of the century maybe a little earlier the public square has rejected God specifically. Made it a point to dismiss God and Christianity even being antagonistic towards Christian worldviews.

Before that was Enlightenment and the cultural revolutions of the 60's which began the undermining of God as a truth. In fact Postmodernism rejected any single truth and the Canon principles of the west that nations were built on.

But the full expression of secular ideology has really come out post 2000 and especially in the last 10 years that it has become an alternative worldview that challenges and replaces the Christian worldview.

That is fundementally what this battle is about, a materialist and anti Christian God verses the Christian God. So secular ideology comes from a different metaphysical belief about what is nature and reality. One that makes humans their own gods being the only true arbitors of truth and reality. Being the opposite of Gods truth, fake truths dressed up in humanistic ideas and beliefs.

Because there is no God or truth there is no sin. Everything is relative and an expression of humanity. As a result there is no order to nature. Its a random and blind process for which humans can manipulate in their favor. This forms the basis of Postmodern Socal Constructionism for which many academics refer to ie sex and gender are social constructions. Therefore humans can reconstruct nature, the sexes and gender.

Included in the ideology is the copycat versions of Gods truths. The worlds idea of peace and equality is different to Gods. As we have seen in how secular ideology has caused conflict and division its a false peace and equality. But it fools a lot of people because its all about identity, emotion, and being Woke which appears to have nobel causes.

But like any false prophet it looks good on the outside but is full of corruption and hate on the inside which is what we are now experiencing with internal and external conflicts and problems that are undermining nations and peoples hopes.

This election is not about being "leftist" or "rightist".

The more important issue is that Trump has shown open disregard
for the fair rule of law in America.

And the Democratic candidate, and a large number of the law abiding
and conservative Republicans, are supporting the rule of law in
America.

This is important for Christians in America, because we first of all,
need the fair rule of law, for "freedom of religion".

Trump has 34 felony convictions, and is not a candidate who can
represent either the fair rule of law in America, or Christian values.

How does voting for the Left represent Christian values when the left undermines Christianity whenever it is given the opportunity? You want everyone to vote against Trump, tell us the positive reason someone should vote for a hostile anti Christian ideology? Which Leftism is.

Murder as evil is not debatable. All the rest of your comment is debatable.

The USCCB and Pope Francis have always left room for conscience, simply because pro-birth candidates come with truckloads of anti-life positions in so many other ways.
I cannot in conscience select those truckloads of anti-life baggage which, in 2024, endanger our democracy and exacerbate climactic famines and starvation, African genocide over scarce resources, and much more.

Anti life baggage such as not imposing strict socialism and demanding the state solve every social ill? Why do you want government in every aspect of life but not involved when it comes to abortion? Why do you want to encourage policies which encourage social degeneration? Take in mind Fantine, you have said elsewhere you want access to abortion expanded and protected in law.

If you weren't a Christian, you'd have a valid point.

Your statement might be said by either side of the fence. Where do you stand? Be specific about your point. What exactly do you mean to say about the specific issues at hand? Are you objecting to the OP or supporting it? Who are you saying are "Christians" (in quotes) - I presume you mean false Christians who are play-acting at being Christians or who claim to be Christian but are hypocrites. In order for someone to repent and come back to Jesus, they must belong to Jesus in the first place.
