The 'Prop 8 ' Fallout

After the vote in favor of Prop 8 in Califorina that would limit marriage to one man and one woman, protests and rallies have been held to try to gain support to overturn the vote of the people. This news video was recently released showing the treatment of an older woman who was in support of Prop 8 by some supports of gay marriage. Notice the final comment by the news anchor that both sides were showing 'hate.' Where is the 'hate' demonstrated by the elderly woman?

Did God Choose Barak Obama?


It has just been 2 days now since our country went to the polls to vote for our next president. As we all know, Sen. Barak Obama was the clear choice of the majority of the voting citizens. But already, I am hearing comments like this from a growing number of Christians: "God is sovereign, so he can fix this." This is a belief about God that I certainly agree with. No plan of his can be thwarted, we are told in Job 42:2.

But behind this statement about God's sovereignty I am finding an interesting contradition. What is being expressed is that we messed the vote up, so God in his sovereignty will have to override our choice. But let me ask this question, what if God in his sovereignty chose Barak Obama to be our next president? I'm not sure that this question has even crossed our minds. If this were the case, then what would our responsibilities be as Christians toward our next president?
