| | Some verses I read today that reminded (not that I necessarily needed to be reminded...) me why I'm most definitely NOT voting for someone who allows murder (abortion) & theft ("sharing the wealth").
Isaiah 59:4
No one calls for justice;
no one pleads his case with integrity.
They rely on empty arguments and
speak lies;
they conceive trouble & give birth
to evil.
59:7-8
Their feet rush into sin;
they are swift to shed innocent blood.
Their thoughts are evil thoughts;
ruin and destruction mark their ways.
The way of peace they do not know;
there is no justice in their pathes.
They have turned them into crooked
roads;
no one who walks in them will know
peace.
59:15-16
Truth is nowhere to be found,
and whoever shuns evil becomes a
prey.
The LORD looked and was displeased
that there was no justice.
He saw that there was no one,
He was appalled that there was no
one to intervene;
so His own arm worked salvation for
Him,
and His own righteousness
sustained Him.
He put on righteousness as His
breastplate,
and the helmet of salvation on His head;
He put on the garments of vengeance
and wrapped Himself in zeal as in a cloak.
59:19
From the west, men will fear the name
of the LORD,
and from the rising of the sun, they
will revere His glory.
For He will come like a pent-up flood
that the breath of the LORD drives
along.
Hebrews 13:11-14
The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp. And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood. Let us, then, go to Him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace He bore. Fo here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.
And COMFORT:
13:8
Jesus Christ is the same YESTERDAY and TODAY and FOREVER.
