For the heart of this people is waxed gross,and their ears are dull of hearing,and their eyes have they closed;lest they should see with their eyes,and hear with their ears,and understand with their heart,and should be converted,and i should heal them. The book of ACTS chapter 28:verse 27. This was the apostle Paul speaking to Gentiles in the bbok of acts but does it apply to us now? Of course it does. Evil flourishes,it attacks all good things. It's in our government as well as our homes.When you hear about christ is your heart waxed gross? When you hear different opinions from congress are your ears and eyes closed?When someone expresses their values do ya have a closed mind? Well...Paul was not talking about politics. He was speaking about christ and his love for all people. If i sin then it's sin. And i have an advocate with the Heavenly Father and his name is JESUS CHRIST. I contend that our christian beliefs are brought to bare in our Politics. How can we say we love our country,or even just work here everyday and not care? Sadly millions do.As a born again christian i do not believe nor see any indication in scripture that says we are to sit passively by and watch our nation destroy itself and say nothing nor do nothing.If we are to follow Precepts,follow the word of God.From front to rear.It's a heck of a story.By the way,the bible does not teach tolerence.People that believe that usually are usually headed somewhere we don't want to go.Lieing and saying God says sin is ok,case in point homosexuality....and the agenda to rewrite the bible will never reign. Just like Paul,we will always have opposition. Stand up to it.
