A selection of voting wisdom

From Mark Driscoll: “The bottom line is obvious to those with gospel eyes. People are longing for Jesus, and tragically left voting for mere presidential candidates.”  TheResurgence.com

From Los Whittaker: “Those who are voting for Obama should pray blessings over McCain.  Those who are voting for McCain should be praying blessings upon Obama.  We should stop moaning and complaining about inexperience, Alaska, taxes, teenage pregnancy, terrorists, wardrobes, racism, and Katie Couric.  We in turn need to pray.”  Ragamuffinsoul.com

From John Saddington: “So, this morning, when I woke up, headed down to Buckhead Church, grabbed a free cup of coffee from Starbucks and sat down to type, I looked out the window and imagined and saw a country not of citizens-divided, but rather an opportunity for unity.”  human3rror.com

From Robert Davis: “I want to challenge you to take an action that will impact you and others beyond the inauguration. Maybe follow you all the way into eternity. Vote with your life.”  icblog.lifechurch.tv

From Michael Spencer: “Our American culture war is not worth the demise of authentic discipleship. Trading following Christ in love, even in post-Christian times, for fighting and defensiveness, is a bad trade.” internetmonk.com

From Frank Turk: “This is where we really get after the sovereignty of God: when we live the way He has said to live, not out of some stupid attempt to earn from Him the kind of country we want to live in, but because He has already done so much. This is where we fill up what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, people [Col 1:24].” centurion.blogspot.com

From Douglas Wilson: “If the election goes badly, do not soak your hair with lighter fluid, set it off, and then run in tight, little circles. Be a Christian. If the election goes well, do not act you have just been saved. Salvation is not something that Caesar holds in his hand, whether to give or withhold.”  dougwils.com
