Evangelical leader: If Biden wants 'unity,' invite us to the table
Some Democrats have called for a "truth and reconciliation commission" and others insist the GOP must be "broken, burned down" and members "who committed crimes" should be punished.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, D-N.Y., is asking whether or not there's "anyone archiving these Trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future?"
Meanwhile, evangelical leaders, who were among Trump's strongest supporters, insist that if Biden's truly desires unity, he needs to reach out to them....
Bad enough that a man breaks his pledge and stands on a lie to declare himself a leader, but when Christians show no indignation but casually pass over this lie, it is an indictment of the spiritual temperature of those Christians that they are no different than the unbelievers. God gives people the rulers they deserve.
America, its people and the nation, was unique right from its founding. It was rooted in the Judeo Christian principles, and clearly Gods blessings was upon it. All other nation or its people couldn't hold a candle to it. America has stood as a beacon for liberty and hope. The rest of the world was not given LIBERTY, because the rest of the world did not want liberty, nor would they have known what to do with it. Either way, God gave the world what they sought- a government for its people!
Question, has anybody ever agreed with you on here Jim? No? Well then please go away because that’s not gonna change unless this app starts being appealing to the unsaved!

Jim Wallace asked a very pointed question at the debate - " will you wait until all the votes have been independently verified before you declare victory?"
Biden is lying right at the outset. YOU'R flowery third party praise of him living out his catholic faith is not his testimony. HIS first person act of lying here is!
This is not a president. No Christian can join him.
Emma Green wrote: ...Biden’s campaign can try to convince Catholic voters that abortion isn’t the only important issue in the 2020 election. Americans have watched as Trump downplayed the COVID-19 crisis, denied the importance of wearing masks to protect the elderly and the immunocompromised, and pushed for a quick reopening as minority communities suffered. Biden and his backers wish for the vice president to be associated with a faith that has prepared him to grieve with the families of COVID-19 victims; that drives him to expand access to Medicaid; and that prompts him to reach for his rosary in times of crisis, as he did in the Situation Room during the hours before Osama bin Laden was killed in a 2011 raid. “The Catholic faith is not just a noun. It is a verb,” Virginia McGregor, an old-time Scrantonian who serves as the vice fundraising chair for the DNC, told me. “You are known in your faith by how you live your life.” Biden’s campaign is an argument that being pro-life, and being faithful, is about more than just Roe v. Wade.... [ ]
The Quiet Christian wrote: Amen, Brother Frank. Brother Tim nailed this as well. Unity means submission to their worldview, which is increasingly based on the many strands of Critical Theory and Intersectionality, both of which I've been reading about. Both require an active submission to their "religion" of self-worship thru conscience acts against whatever they say is wrong. It's one thing to agree to disagree, and within certain boundaries, I'm OK with that - like many of us do here on SA. And they will demand unity thru cancelling or crushing their opposition. Our child likened it to Islam.
Thanks brother for your wise thoughts. I sometimes use the "agree to disagree" thought, but only for what I refer to as secondary issues.

The above is from the article. The below is a quote attributed to Martin Luther and IMO, it is appropriate for all Christians. Witnessing to Biden is a wonderful thing; agreeing with him on Christian issues is not.
As Luther said “It is better to be divided by truth than to be united in error”
If that is the attitude of these quote "evangelicals" unquote, then it doesn't come from the Bible.
Whether it is their definition of evangelical or their definition of good government.
If you compromise with the worldly, that does not help you with a Biblical witness, what it does is oppose the true Biblical witness. God does not compromise with sinners or their sinful ways.
1John 2:15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world."
Eph 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them."
Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."
Che Guevara oversaw 14000, executions of pastors, priests, bankers, civil servants, nurses and small businessmen without given a trial( like it mattered). After torturing and killing that many citizens of Cuba , plenty of people were quite welcomed at the table, as long as everyone agreed to get along.
First of all, he can't invite us to the tabke because 'rona.
Second of all, there is no unitt with those that attack and harass women, children, and the elderly for simply attending a peaceful rally that is opposite of your beliefs. There is no unity with a side that thinks stealing, destruction,and shooting people is justified.
There is no unity with "Christians" that bring shame to the name of Christ by constantly pushing the lefts antiGod propaganda, looking at you, Jim.

There’s nothing refreshing about moving backwards to the old out of date, anti-freedom leftism that spends its time suffocating people, Jim.
Ps Neither Biden nor the Democrats want unity. They have spent 4 years fighting against it. What they want is compliance with their agenda. For them, that’s unity.
Chrisgp there certainly has not been any massive fraud in this election! It's one of the cleanest elections I've been on record in fact.
Burgess Everett, Melanie Zanona and Andrew Desiderio wrote: GOP lawmakers are acknowledging reality, but most still won't push Trump to begin the transition.... .... Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) said Trump can and should continue his legal challenges but has “every confidence on Jan. 20 we’re going to inaugurate a president. And it will probably be Joe Biden.”
“It grows increasingly unlikely that a remedy would involve overturning the election,” said Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), who said he nonetheless supports Trump’s goals of exposing even small cases of malfeasance on ballots. “Vice President Biden ought to be getting briefings and the transition ought to be in the works so that there’s an infrastructure for that. And if he ends up winning, as it seems likely he will, that he won’t have to get caught up on one day in January.”...

Jim Lincoln wrote: —- Many religious supporters of Biden were even bigger opponents of Trump❗👍 so, it remains to be seen what will happen if Biden seeks a second term?
Second term? Can you say 25th Amendment? You actually think the left wingnuts who used figurehead Biden, who can barely string a sentence together, are going to leave him in office? He’s a means, not an end. There won’t be a second term. Might not be a first, for that matter.
One correction apart from the fact that there has been massive fraud in this election. The Australian Broadcasting Corporation is like our BBC, leftist to the core. I think you mean Sky News Australia, which unlike its counterpart here in Britain, Sky News Britain, seems to be much more resistant to the globalists balusters and leftists, and actually foes against the leftist trend of the mainstream media.
Chris GP it's pretty certain that Biden and Harris has won the election.

I have to say that the Australian broadcasting corporation seems to be the giving the most friendly results for Trump, but this election has been of great entertainment to the folks in Australia.
