Christians
should not vote according to party affiliations,
but they
should vote according to biblical affiliations.
If a
candidate does not compare to the biblical standards of the bible
then you
should not vote for them, regardless if they happen
to wear
the same label of your party affiliation.
If a
candidate promotes same sex marriages, abortion, and any other sin,
if you
call yourself a Christian then you
shouldn’t vote
for that particular candidate.
Too
long people have voted based on
race and party affiliations,
but I’m here to tell you by the Spirit of the Living God,
vote for the “candidate” that
believes what the Word of God
tells us, no matter what election it
is.

Federal Marriage Amendment
When President
Bush defended marriage as the union of one
man
and one woman in the State of the
conservatives applauded. But when he
failed to announce
he
would fight for a constitutional amendment
guaranteeing marriage would remain unchanged, there was
widespread
disappointment. It is now clear that the
carefully
crafted
words the President spoke managed to satisfy no one.
Radical
homosexual rights groups are furious that the President verbally defended traditional
marriage at all. And pro-family
advocates are increasingly upset that the amendment
will
go nowhere if President Bush continues to stand on the
sidelines.

But despite the

that the huge Cincinnati-based corporation would go

rights to homosexuals.
"That is absolutely
shocking to us," Burris says, "that a major corporation like this

Graham stands by
statement calling Islam 'wicked, violent'
by Todd Starnes

Graham initially made the
remarks in an interview at the October dedication of a chapel in
"I don't believe this
is a wonderful, peaceful religion," Graham said. "When you read the
Koran and you read the verses from the Koran, it instructs the killing of the
infidel, for those that are non-Muslim."
Asked by NBC News to clarify
his statement, Graham stood his ground.
"It wasn't Methodists
flying into those buildings, it wasn't Lutherans," Graham told NBC.
"It was an attack on this country by people of the Islamic faith."
NBC News released the Graham
interview on the first day of Ramadan, the holiest season of the Muslim year
and it has drawn fire from Muslims as well as the White House.
A spokesperson for the White
House noted that President Bush "views Islam as a religion that preaches
peace," and that the terrorists do not represent what Islam teaches.
Regardless, in a Nov. 18
statement, Graham said he stood by his earlier comments.
"As a Christian
minister, my calling and focus is to proclaim the God of the Christian faith to
all who will listen and hear, and to love all people regardless of their
faith," Graham said. "It is not my calling to analyze Islam or any
other religions though I recognize that all religions have differences. In the
past, I have expressed my concerns about the teachings of Islam regarding the
treatment of women and the killing of non-Muslims or infidels. I do not intend to
comment further."
Graham's response came one
day after his ministry's Operation Christmas Child began processing 1 million
shoeboxes of toys, school supplies and personal hygiene items for needy
children overseas, including thousands destined for many Muslim nations.
"As the leader of an
international Christian relief organization, my calling is to provide food,
clothing, housing, supplies and medical care to hurting people everywhere
regardless of faith," Graham said. "Samaritan's Purse has provided more
relief and aid to Muslim people than to any other people in the world --
support amounting to tens of millions of dollars in places like
