The General Election of November 2, 2004 was declared as the largest turnout in American history with George W. Bush receiving the largest popular vote in American history. Due to a large ground swell of support from across the nation, a number of points are now clear for our analysis. The hate campaign against the President clearly backfired. Although it garnered a large influx of hate Bushers, it also motivated millions who reacted against such hate speech. Many voted against Bush without really “caring for Kerry”! It is also clear to me that the evangelicals made a huge moral statement in this election. Of the eleven states with “Same Sex Marriage” Issues on the ballot, all of them went down to defeat and the Marriage Protection Act was victorious. There is no question that the safety and security of the United States was the backdrop of this election cycle.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since our nation was attacked on 9/11/01 our security system in the United States is being completely overhauled. After breaking down the 9-11 Commission report and throwing out the “blame mongers” accusations, there is a clear effort to reform and revitalize our security forces at home and strengthening our military forces abroad; so that we can hunt down and destroy the Al Quida network of terrorist thugs and bring this massive killing machine to a halt. This will take a strong resolve on the part of the United States to fund all operations that seek to destroy Al Quida before they strike our shores again. We need a strong President and Congress that works together to secure our freedoms along with a strong, well prepared and funded military to protect and defend our people.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I believe that what lies ahead is most important. First, there is no question that several Supreme Court Justices will be appointed by Bush. Will these appointments be the next battleground of hatred stirred up by the liberal elites who know that abortion will more than likely pass into the dust bin of history’s most horrendous atrocities? Will the reconstructionist Judges be shut down, who try to impose long held and treasured Judeo Christian traditions by a new conservative Supreme Court? Second, our economy must continue to be freed from oppressive taxation and traditional family structures be honored. Third, we as evangelical Christians must continue to affect our culture by a clear loving gospel message of salvation through Jesus Christ and a fervent prayer movement of repentance and reconciliation to Jesus Christ so that a revival and reformation may sweep into the church and flow across our land. This is our present opportunity. Let us not sit back and allow the immoral moguls of Hollywood to shape our morals. Let us not sit back and allow the liberal media to set the agenda. Let the Christians demand that the media be libel for lies printed under the guise of the 1st amendment. Let us remember that we may never have a Christian nation, but we can have a nation that is governed by Christian morality wherein evil doers will be punished for unlawful deeds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This can be the Church's finest hour in America or it can be our undoing. If we do not work while it is day, the night will come when no man can work. If good men and women do nothing, evil men and women will. Rather than being re-active let us be pro-active. Let called Christians run for public offices. Let the pen of righteousness touch the public debate on every issue. And let us continue to pray for America and thank God for the bountiful supply of His mercy and grace.
May God Bless America and May America Bless God!!
