Heaven is Not Democrat nor Republican

[branchesofHim]

Isaiah 14:[1] For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
[2] And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
[3] And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve,
[4] That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased!
[5] The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, and the sceptre of the rulers.
[6] He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted, and none hindereth.
[7] The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.
[8] Yea, the fir trees rejoice at thee, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying, Since thou art laid down, no feller is come up against us.
[9] Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.
[10] All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like unto us?
[11] Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee.
[12] How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
[13] For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
[14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
[15] Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

1 Corinthians 1:[18] For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
[19] For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

But: while a Democrat may become Christian, a Christian will not become a Democrat. Just the way  it is here on earth at the USA

[Fidei Defensor]

Indeed, heaven is Christian: partisian of Christ. “Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6) 

[shortangel]

true you do have a good point,  heaven is not one or the other of a poltical party

[furrychristian]

Left leaning centrist, here. Used to be a libertarian, which can be described as "socially left, fiscally right". Except.....I'm not "fiscally right" anymore, hence, I'm not libertarian anymore.

What are they if they become an Independent? Asking for a friend.

You mean like me? I find neither major political party to be meritorious.  I officially registered as a member of the Beach Party. But really one can't split their vote across major party lines for the elected members do not work independently. I had to vote for president a man I promised myself I would never ever vote for, as there was no other real choice there for me.

God is sovereign- All will work out for those that do believe on Jesus as Lord- Flatten the fear.

I am a follower of Jesus Christ, and my allegiance is to Him, and not a political party. For the first time in about 30 years of voting, I will be voting for a Democratic candidate for President.

Hi,  I understand the emotion of that one. I was emphatic that I could not vote for Trump last time myself. But  then I finally had to and not only that I put skin ( money) in the game too! The Democrats proved to me that they are just too awful a group to leave my grandchildren to have to deal with.

BTW-Do you speak Chinese or have a personal interpreter?

Senator Biden  very recently said "Com'n man the Chinese are nothing. We have nothing to fear from them. They can't compete with us. (Paraphrasing). His son makes millions upon millions off his Chinese affiliations does he not?

I again find  myself without a good choice, but I do see I have a more awful choice in any Democrat, any of them at all.

And so I will vote yet again, and I will vote a straight party line, have too, nothing else makes sense to me. To think I can just for  for a man is folly. If I could it sure would not be Biden.

I do pray the prayer that somehow none of these present choices stand  through to November that something will happen to change the nominees for both parties. Long shot I know, but none the less it is my prayer please God though we may not deserve it, another choice please.

That is absolutely your right. It would be nice if you were able to allow others to vote how they wish without "demonizing" their choice.
