A Christian leader falls again. Will it matter on Tues?
In Colorado, another Christian pastor has bitten the dust. Regardless of whether he had sex with this Jones person, Haggard is done as a leader of the NAE and his church of 14,000 in Colorado. Some leftists are crowing that this will depress voters in Colorado from voting against gay marriage and supporting not only stem cells-cloning in Mo. but parental notification in other states. Perhaps not. This may , in fact, so infuriate Christians that they come out to vote just to show that one leader falling does not obviate and cancel the effect of moral values on an election. I hope that is true. Sure Christian leaders falling and failing lead liberals , secularists, and other faiths to make fun of Christianity. But, grace, repentance, salvation and second chances are Jesus' way not the world's. When leftist pols fail, they seem to get approval but when so called moral leaders fail, the saws, hammers, and pikes are out to stab them into oblivion. Some deserve it but others do not. Like addicts, Christian leaders who fail and want to change and repent should be helped to do so. And since so many non-Christians fail and fall and that never seems to stop them from voting, holding office or making media statements, Christians need to come off the floor and use their right to vote. And yes, they can still vote their values. The Bible's values do not change or are not obliterated just because some followers blow it. Frankly, I hope millions of Christians come out and vote on Tues. and vote their values without shame!
