Pastor Bob: Don’t be an Adam. Be a Christ-like person and vote.
By Rev. Robert Babcox | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice
I find it odd that we have to beg people to fulfill their Christian, as well as civic, duty. Ever since Thomas Jefferson wrote to the Danbury Baptist Association in 1802, there has been a decline in Christians involving themselves in political decisions.
For example, Christians all over the state of Colorado are upset because Amendment 79 is on the ballot, yet what have they done to convince anyone that it shouldn’t be? Up to 50% of evangelical Christians are either not registered or don’t even vote, and yet they complain about the results. If every self-admitting Christian voted, the outcome in this state would be far different.
Oh, I know most (not all) politicians are slippery snakes, and you don’t want to be around them ...
