No Moral Equivalency Between The Left and The Right

Written by Brandon Myers

Though some foolish, uniformed, and lazy voices would claim otherwise, there is little to no moral equivalency between the platforms and positions of the left and the right.

The Democrats and the Republicans are at odds with one another on a number of vital issues.

The Democrats are a proud, death-cult political party that celebrates what God hates.

As Dr. Andrew Walker notes, the Democratic platform, written by their key leaders, is the most radical platform in U.S. history that blatantly contradicts fundamental principles of creation, order, and justice. (Waiting for updated links for these.)

This does not mean everyone on the right who is a Republican is right and good, nor does it mean they are Christians. Far from it. But please consider our Christian Duties and the Contrast Between the Choices.

Realize that, despite what some claim, there is in point of fact little-to-no moral equivalency between the majority of the left (Democrats) and the majority of the right (Republicans).

This does not mean there is no way to legitimately critique both sides. There most definitely is, and they must be critiqued and held accountable.

But hear this, friend: a vote for a candidate that openly defies the Creator God’s standards and mocks the Lord’s good design is an act of rebellion against the living God.

To cast a vote for the overwhelming majority of Democrat candidates is an act of rebellion against God. It is, in fact, sinful. Period. Full stop.

If your pastors care about your soul and are being faithful to God’s Word, they will lovingly call you to repent. And if you are filled with the Holy Spirit, you will humbly and fully repent.

I recognize there might be a small local election race that I am unaware of in some small blessed-by-the-Lord town where the Democratic party is not overrun by godlessness. And if that town does exist, many of us would love to hear about it.

But, for the most part, the Democrat party has embraced godlessness.

Let’s look at what we already have and what to further expect if Kamala wins.

• Signed abortion law for all nine months;
• Removed parental notification for minors;
• Provided “free” college tuition;
• Provided free school breakfasts and lunches (why the need for parents?);
• Uncovered fraud with his program to feed kids;
• Put tampons in boys bathrooms;
• Kept massive COVID restrictions longer than most states;
• Forced state workers to be vaccinated;
• Gave health insurance to illegals;
• Legalized marijuana; made Minnesota a refuge for “gender-affirming care;”
• Called the National Guardonly after three days of looting and burning in Minneapolis, ;
• Signed the “get out of jail free” bill;
• Signed bill to give illegals driver’s licenses;
• Overhauled voting laws, including forty-six days of early voting,
• Allowed sixteen-year-olds to pre-register,
• Permanent vote-by-mail ballots;
• Signed Minnesota’s Green New Deal bill;
• Signed bill to increase sales and gas taxes

Every election is the most important election of your lifetime. Those who govern will be elected and will be given access to power and money. They will make decisions that will affect generations of Americans to come (negatively or positively).

Recently, I have seen a few polls that have suggested many Christians will be sitting out this election cycle.

A few years ago, an evangelical pastor I worked with sheepishly shared with me he had never voted in a single election. This pastor was nearly thirty years old at the time and clearly was embarrassed about it (as he should be). While it is likely true for some Christians that politics can become an idol they obsess over, my observation is that by and large what Christians in America are guilty of is not being too political but being politically apathetic, unengaged and uninformed.

So please understand something: if you claim the name of Jesus Christ but are going to sit out this election cycle, you are being very foolish and selfish. And if you are voting for Kamala Harris and other political candidates like her, who proudly and loudly defy the Lordship of Jesus Christ and mock the Creator and His good design, and you gladly support those who want to see the murdering of children expanded and protected—you need to know you are in sin and need to repent of your sins before the Lord.

I pray if you claim the name of Christ and cast a vote for Democrats, who proudly support what God so clearly hates, please repent of your utter folly, sin, and evil.

While many have poked fun at Kamala Harris, the truth is that even this covers up who she truly is. She is not merely an unlikeable, inarticulate, and fake woman. She is not merely incompetent. She is a wicked and immoral woman who needs to repent of much, including her proud willingness to support the slaughter of precious preborn girls and boys, to pervert and redefine marriage, and to promote irreparable harm among American daughters and sons, disguised as “gender-affirming care.”

There is no perfect candidate running for office in this election. And to be sure, all who reject the Lord Jesus Christ should be called to repent. As Pastor Jonny Ardavanis’s excellent viral clip noted, you are supporting what is evil and in the open. The left/Democrats overwhelmingly are those who love what God hates and hate what God loves (Isaiah 5:20).

May God have mercy on our nation, and may God bless the citizens of the United States of America with repentance for our sins and civil magistrates who will not bear the sword in vain but will praise those who do good and punish evildoers (Romans 13).

And may we see the blessings of freedom and a multiplication of civil magistrate citizens who serve humbly and respect the U.S. Constitution and the American people.
