VOTE!!   

Pilot Knob Lutheran       VOTE!!        10/2/2024

When this comes in your email box there will be twenty-eight days before the election, one that will impact the direction of America and the world for generations to come. This is a very serious time for America and the world, too serious not to vote.  

I know many are soured by the last election that in my opinion was stolen, so why bother voting. First of all: we are citizens of the City of God. Therefore, we are to live in accordance with God’s law, to self-govern according to the love of God and neighbor. Second: our most important commitments are to love God and neighbor It shapes our values which in turn shapes our votes. Whatever issues we prioritize are first and foremost moral issues with political implications. Third: Political involvement should be engaged year-round by building or strengthening the family, church, neighbors, and communities. If we do, the state won’t need to.  

Bottom line in this election: will America continue down the road to communism (Marxism) or return to our Constitutional Republic? It is that critical. We will either keep our liberties or we continue to lose them.

Vote and encourage others to vote for the candidate who best advocates a biblical worldview.

“Our battle is not between political parties—it’s
a matter of good versus evil. Truth versus lies.
And God’s absolute truth never changes—no matter
how our culture tries to redefine it.”

—Cissie Graham Lynch, Billy Graham’s granddaughter and
Franklin Graham’s daughter

Substitute

John 1:29 . . . “the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world.” This is a reference to sacrifice. Jesus became a sacrifice for you and me, our substitute instead of each of us paying for our own sin which is impossible.

All Saints Day

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed. 1 Peter 2:24

Reformation Sunday

Cowardly

A passage that is often used at funerals is Revelation 21:1-7 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
