America is a country where the people make the decisions, right?
Well, it depends on how you look at it!
Consider the information provided by the United States Election Project.
-
There are 217,342,419 eligible voters in America
-
Only 90,700,000 +/- of them bother to vote
-
That’s about 41%
In a close election, slightly over 50% of that number determines who will represent us and guide our country. When you take a closer look, you realize that one half of 41% is 20.5%.
That means that about 20% of America’s eligible voters can (and do) control the country.
Those statistics alone should scare us, but even MORE frightening is WHO that 20% is!
As you contemplate the issue further, you might conclude that if only one in every one hundred (1%) of eligible voters not currently voting would simply go to the polls, THEY COULD CONTROL the direction of America. The challenge, obviously is to get the RIGHT 1% to start voting!
Statistics show that about 40 MILLION Christians do not vote. Some think we should not mix “God and politics”. That is strange, because JESUS got involved in politics! Aren’t we supposed to be followers of Christ if we claim to be Christians?
Christians… real Christians… could change this country in ONE ELECTION CYCLE if they would only VOTE.
I am talking about Bible believing, God-fearing, abortion hating, sinner loving, righteous living, sold out to Christ Americans.
Politics has become a “dirty game” because those who are in charge are dirty. Politics will become honorable when those in charge have pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor in service to their fellow-man.
Candidates who fit that description are running in this election. They can not win without the support of the “Real Christians” at the voting booth.
Are you a “Real Christian”? Do you vote? Do you support “Real Christian” candidates?
The destiny of America is in your hands.
