It will get very bad, Obama is abortion on wheels, the slaughter of the unborn will be worse than ever, enshrined as a right and those opposed will be persecuted like never before.

As the scale of abortion increases, so to will natural disasters increase.

There was only one reason for americans to vote in this election. That was the abortion issue, a vote for Obama is vote for death.

There is no rapture, christians are going to have to live this coming persecution and very likely die in it.

The people have spoken and they have spoken 'death'.

First off God has a perfect will, and a permissive will, and we christians have a free will to choose. We are living in Biblical end times. Now it will be interesting to see how God will respond.
Personally I'm ready to go Home whenever Jesus calls me.

I prayerfully voted my conscience so the results are out of my hands.

On another note, we had an amendment in Colorado that would have defined a person at the point of conception. It was defeated:

And, they passed a bill to expand gambling:

A very bad election day all around. I am very melancholy this morning. I truly love my country and I am watching it crumble right before my eyes. It sickens me.

See any parallels here?

The only thing left to do is pray, witness, and fight the battle.

Considering, everybody and everything I voted for or against, did NOT get through, I am NEVER going to vote again. I will find another way to help change the world.

The main problem with politics is that there are 2 sides with differing views and opinions, and it is, essentially, us against them, and nothing really gets done.

P.S.: I hope to join all of you in Heaven, and hopefully at the return of Jesus.
