It’s been one that might be likened to a sigh of relief because finally a Christian is writing the ‘truth in love’ regarding Sarah Palin.

Since she came on the campaign scene I have been troubled in my spirit…but even more troubled (perhaps ‘aghast’ would be a better way to phrase it) at the way Christians have not merely rallied to this candidate but have been posting the most hate-filled comments on Christian forums toward those who have questioned whether Mrs. Palin is the appropriate choice. The attacks by those who call themselves Christians have been so vicious I’ve kept my own opinions to myself. It puts me in mind of the way the Lord has spoken through various prophets regarding a shaking of the church which reveals what we’re truly made of. If that’s the case, then surely the community of believers have been revealing the tragic condition of the ‘church’ in these days.

What you’ve written here rings of scriptural truth and I thank you for the reasoned way in which you’ve written it.

With great sadness in my heart I read your writing concerning Sarah Palin and the political attributes and controversy about her and her ambition to seek the office of VP of this country. But it is not ‘WHAT’ you wrote about this issue, it is the fact ‘THAT’ you had to write it. Have the people of GOD so far departed from the Word of GOD, that they are seriously considering the politics of “man” over the devine guidance and counsel of GOD?

How can a true child of GOD seriuosly consider man’s way over GOD’S way? Why are so many of GOD’S children disobeying the Word of God and harken man’s command ?

I want to assume the people who read your blog are seeking a closer relationship with GOD, by learning through teachers to gain deeper understanding of the Word, its meaning and application in our lives. Yes, it is true, we have to test all thing and it is important that we do. A teacher of the Word of GOD is held accountable to what he teaches, if it is contrary to the Word of GOD we are not to accept it. Your teachings are generally away from politics and focus strictly on the Word of God and I know you to carry a great gift of GOD to bring to the people of GOD. The fact that you felt directed to address this issue of politics to the people in GOD’S CHURCH points to a great level of immaturety among the people of God at this VERY late hour.

Heb 5:12 For when by reason of the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need again that some one teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of solid food.
Heb 5:13 For every one that partaketh of milk is without experience of the word of righteousness; for he is a babe.

It is that “lack” of experience of the word of righteousness which we need to overcome quickly. HIS judgements are coming.

In Christ

JB
