Got this e-mail today:
For months now my email Inbox has been besieged by nearly hysterical
warnings about what will happen if Barack Obama becomes President. I have
been encouraged to be worried, afraid, concerned, prepared for disaster, and
a whole host of other maladies if this happens. I do not deny the
importance of this election, but it seems to me that we need a dose of
perspective. So here, on the eve of the election, I would like to start my
own email concerning this election. It’s a “True/False” test. I’d like for
all of us to take it:
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, Jesus will
still be King.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, our
responsibilities as Christians will not have changed one iota.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, the greatest
agent for social change in America will still be winning the hearts and
minds of men and women through the gospel, not legislation.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, my primary
citizenship will still be in this order – (1) the Kingdom of God, (2)
America, not vice-versa.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, the tomb
will still be empty.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, the cross,
not the government, will still be our salvation.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, our children
will still be more concerned with whether or not we spend time with them
than with who is President.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, my neighbor
will still be my neighbor, and loving him/her will still be the second
greatest commandment. (Do you know the first?)
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, the only way
to see abortion ultimately overturned will still be winning men and women to
a high view of life through the gospel of Christ.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, the only way
to see gay marriage ultimately defeated will still be winning men and women
to a biblical view of marriage through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, my
retirement will still not match my treasure in Heaven.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, “Jesus Is
Lord” will still be the greatest truth in the Universe.
True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who wins, we will
still know that God is in control.
How did you score?
