Stewarding our RIGHT and 'RESPONSIBILITY' to VOTE !

 VOTING STEWARDSHIP !

The Godly stewardship of our Responsibility to VOTE must include the Data necessary to make an 'INFORMED' decision. The 'information' below seems to

SCREAM SOCIALISM !

Being the change we want to see in the world currently equates to becoming informed of Reality, and actually 'Getting OFF the Couch' and VOTING.

Is anyone but me 'stunned' that  Evangelical Americans as a whole, talks a whole lot about the VOTE, B-U-T, doesn't seem to be able to make it to the Town Hall to push that Magic Button ?

It's ALL on the Line folks, ... Consider Yourself 

CALLED OUT to 'SACRIFICE' and STAND.

PLEASE DON'T ALLOW 'HIS' CHURCH to be FORCED UNDERGROUND )

Thank You to our Favorite Brother WRITER, Mark Alan Leslie for this Critical Kingdom Information.

Here are the highlights of the Democratic platform for 2020, fact-checked from their web site (above).
How can we NOT get wholly behind this, I ask?
*Universal healthcare and Medicaid for all Americans and illegal aliens. (Pg 61)
*$15 minimum wage.
*Immediate citizenship for illegals. (Pg 63)
*Free college. (Pg 65)
*Forgiveness of student loans. (Pg 71)
*Eliminate border walls and Immigration Enforcement. (Pg 62, 64 & 65)
*Make Washington D.C. the 51st State.
*Abortion for “all women & girls.” (Pg 83)
*$70 trillion Green New Deal, where the USA would be “net-zero greenhouse gas by 2050.”  But CLOSE all coal & natural gas power plants by 2035. By 2030 all new construction in the USA must be net-zero greenhouses.
*Create a U.S. Agency for Global Media “to ensure that only accurate information is reported in the news or on the internet.”
*Rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement.
*Create a new federal agency of 100,000 people to trace every American.
*Immediately restore voting rights for convicted felons.
*Provide funding to facilitate vote-from-home and mail-in-voting.
*Create a new Federal Credit Bureau (to replace Equafax, et al), and require banks to use this new credit reporting service that will be set up to assist low-income people in buying houses and cars.
*Make gun manufacturers responsible and liable for how their guns are used. (Destroy gun manufacturing)
*Declare and treat drug use as a mental illness instead of an illegal activity.
*Declare the support for the Rights of BLM, Multi-gender, and preferential treatment for gays wanting to immigrate to America. (Pg 63)

Thank you for your consideration when voting!

Getting By With A Little Help From Our Friends !

 




Think Biblically
Act Faithfully

In these times of exceptional national chaos, and with less than three weeks before the Nov 3rd election, it can be challenging to discern truth amidst all of the noise. More than ever, God's people need a Biblically-grounded theology for political engagement in an ever-changing cultural landscape.

Many of you ask me for good resources to help inform that theology. May I suggest two current books that I am reading right now?
Let me know what you think, and share with me your go-to resources!

Honoring God 2020
 
 
 


Support the Courageous 

 
In spite of intense cultural pressure to deny or trivialize truths we hold dear regarding the nature of God and His best designs for human flourishing, these candidates for NH's Executive Council, Senate, and House of Representatives have earned an endorsement from Cornerstone. Click on the link or the graphic above to find the endorsed candidates nearest you!

Many of these candidates--especially the new ones--have asked me, where is the Church right now? Do God's people not realize that elections really do have consequences? Indeed, a recent article in The Federalist, "Pay Attention to Local Elections. Whoever Wins Can Make You Miserable," underscores this point.

Besides voting for them, you can also support these courageous candidates by:
  1. Reaching out to get to know them
  2. Encouraging or offering to pray for them
  3. Asking how you can best help: they may invite you to consider hosting a small house party, contributing financially, displaying a lawn sign, or sharing with two or three friends about your support

Please see these other elections-related articles from Shannon McGinley on the Cornerstone Blog:
 

Recently Cornerstone's Church Ambassador Network hosted a socially-distanced lunch for pastors and ministry leaders, sharing the story of our mission, vision, and values for gospel-centered interaction with state officials.

My counterpart, Jeff Evans and his wife Chrissy from the Minnesota Family Council related some of their own wins related to engaging MN legislators of all political and faith stripes with the message of the gospel.

We were delighted to confer upon Rep. Mark Pearson the William Wilberforce Award for his wise but tireless pursuit of religious liberty in the midst of the state's emergency orders; and upon Michael & Diane Worsely the inaugural Church Ambassador Network Award for their fostering of an intimate relationship with Gov. Sununu and his family, focusing on their spiritual health.

Most of the growing Cornerstone team was on hand to connect with pastors & leaders in attendance:
  • Clare Forrester, Director of Stewardship and Engagement
  • Helena Davis, Policy & Research Consultant
  • Shannon McGinley, Executive Director 
  • Ellen Kolb, Policy and Communications Consultant
  • Ian Huyett, General Counsel & Director of Policy
Not pictured: 
  • Suzanne Murdoch, Communications Consultant 
  • Vickie Lavery, Financial Assistant

To hear for yourself the Church Ambassador Network story and to learn what role you can play, contact me to schedule a Zoom or in-person meeting!
