Bush Unworthy of the Christian Vote

I couldn't believe my own ears when I heard it myself.

Goosebumps riddled my body, and my blood curdled.

Earlier this week on ABC News, our "Christian" President George W. Bush proclaimed in front of a national audience that Christians and Muslims worship "the same god".

(To read transcript of interview online, please visit http://www.evervigilant.net/news/gmatranscript102604.html)

Bush also said that Muslims and non-Christians both go to heaven because "we have different routes of getting there."

These statements are utter rejections of the Truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Said Christ, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." (John 14:6) No genuine Christian would ever proclaim that Muslims and Christians worship the same deity.

The Book of John says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made." (John 1:1-3)

This is a clear reference to the Creator God. Later in the same chapter it is revealed, "the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us," which is a reference to the Creator God taking on human shape in the form of Jesus Christ.

This begs the question, If Muslims worship the same "Creator God", then how can Muslims logically reject Christ's deity?

It just cannot be said by any stretch of the imagination, unless you're a President attempting to bamboozle Christian voters yet again, that Muslims and Christians worship the same god.

Mere disagreements on peripheral issues are acceptable. Some Christians believe in infant baptism, while others do not. Many differ in their views of "end times" theology. Some embrace "charismatic" means of worship, while others abide by regulative principles. These issues and others are non-essential in that honest disagreements may occur even amongst saved Bible-believing Christians.

However, essential Christian doctrine can never be compromised!

The deity of Jesus Christ is essential, and President Bush not only compromised on this doctrine, but he embraced the demonic view of Universalism, the false belief that all roads lead to God.

He used the bully pulpit of the Presidency to poison the minds of millions into believing a lie that rises out of the pit of hell itself.

Logically, if it were true that "all roads lead to God," then the crucifixion and sacrifice of Jesus Christ on Calvary for the sins of many are rendered totally and completely meaningless.

Why should it matter that Christ paid for people's sins when people can still achieve heaven simply by embracing Allah of the Koran or some other make-believe deity?

It is unfortunate that Christians once again will be led to the slaughter by casting their votes for President Bush's re-election campaign.

It is also unfortunate that many "Christian" organizations, such as the Christian Coalition, are doing the leading.

Many of these organizations intentionally black out any mention of any superior candidate because of their fear of electing a Democrat. Recently, the Christian Coalition published its "Voter Guide" which only presented two choices: Bush and Democrat John Kerry. As expected, the Coalition's choice of issues were framed in such a way to lead any reasonable, yet politically naive Christian voter, into believing that Bush is somehow "our man".

The Constitution Party* Presidential nominee, Michael A. Peroutka, who appears on enough state ballots to achieve a majority of electoral votes, represents a party that proclaims the Kingship of Jesus Christ in its Platform. Peroutka also never hesitates to advance biblical principles in governance and a return to solid constitutional government. Yet, these false opposition organizations such as the Christian Coalition black his name out so that Bush is the only one that appears to be in favor of biblical principles.

This is deception at its finest.

The Christian Coalition touts itself as an "educational" organization intended to educate Christians on the issues and elections of the day, but it deliberately ignores the existence of candidates like Peroutka. In so doing, these organizations mislead millions of Christians into believing that President Bush and the Republican Party have their interests in mind. (For a full expose on this story, please see: http://www.peroutka2004.com/schedule/index.php?action=eventview&event_id=534 )

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Jay, who contributed five essays to the Federalist Papers and who was a tremendous influence on the framing of the Constitution, once said, "Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian nation, to select and prefer Christians for their rulers."

It is the duty of Christians to select and prefer a Christian President.

Is Bush a Christian?

Would a Christian ever embrace Universalism?

The only way to restore our nation to biblical principles is to support candidates and parties that proclaim that mission as their goal.

Bush has already revealed his opposition to that goal.
