As many Christians, especially ministers, are pointing out, there are some distinct differences in the candidates for governor of Kentucky in the up-coming election. Daniel Cameron consistently displays biblical virtues in his positions, while Andy Beshear regularly takes the wrong side on moral issues.
I would like to focus on just one of those issues—the right to life. I have been preaching the gospel for over thirty years, and I have always used the pulpit to urge Christians to vote pro-life in statewide and national elections. In my opinion, this is the single most important issue to consider in choosing between candidates. For one thing, pro-life candidates usually also have the right position when it comes to other important issues, such as: taxation, spending, law and order, national defense, border security, the definition of marriage, family values, health care and promoting capitalism over socialism. Secondly, there is the character issue. Any person who does not have enough character to stand up and protect innocent babies in the womb does not have enough character to earn my vote.
To those who might accuse me of preaching politics, I would reply that I am simply preaching righteousness. Righteous living includes exercising your right to vote for the candidate that best represents biblical values.
I consider voting for the morally superior candidate for office to be an act of worship. My candidates do not always win, but I am always a winner in the eyes of God when I vote pro-life. That is why Daniel Cameron has my vote in the upcoming election for the office of governor of Kentucky.
So, I urge every Christian to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world that Jesus declares you to be! Go to the polls and let your voice be heard! Vote pro-life in this election and in future elections.
