Helpful and thought-provoking! Thank you for all the hard work!

Thank you for these helpful tips. I have prayed for wisdom about who to vote for. It is certainly a mixed bag of policies from the different parties and a minefield to navigate. I simply want to live in a Christian country with Christian morals and teachings upheld. A place where Christianity is in safe hands and Christians have have a strong voice and are not being opressed by ideologies that go against God's Word. This is the most important thing for me before making my decision, as it is for every true Christian. If only it were that easy and clear. I pray: Heavenly Father, please lead us to make the right decision on who to vote for that is in the most accordance to your Will. Empower who is selected to lead our country with wisdom, compassion and integrity. Let them be led by your great wisdom. Let your people make the right choices Lord. We need your guidance, now and always. In the name of your Son, our beloved Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen ❤

Looks like theres lots of people in the comments who arent voting, but at the same time want to complain aboute government. 😂

[@loverofgod6176]

Why vote if there isn't a Party willing to govern in the fear of God.

[@HearGodsWord]

@@loverofgod6176 I didn't say whether there were or not. That's a different point. If you only want to vote for a theocracy then you'll never vote.

Find me a Scottish truly Bible believing party/independent in Fife and I may vote. Until then, I will not endorse any of Satans minions through the political ideologies they carry.

Amen. "give us Scotland, LORD, ere we Die!" =John Knox. A Call that every Christian in the UK needs to Echo for their own Country within it.

[@peterjmcc1953]

What about the Scottish Family Party?

[@Eph.6_10-20]

@@peterjmcc1953 they aren’t a Bible believing party. I also have a red line on abortion. Good suggestion and I do listen to what they have to say but they fall short. Thank you though.

Watching this video, you could be forgiven for thinking that multiculturalism was Biblically mandated.

[@223Fi]

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but Christ's kingdom is made up of all ethnicities: 'There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.' Gal 3:28. 'After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb.' Rev 7:9. In the sense of the Church, multiculturalism (by the above definitions) is biblically mandated. As for international migration, Christians are free to differ on practical matters, but we are commanded to show love and compassion to foreigners (particularly our brothers and sisters in Christ): 'When a stranger sojourns with you in your land, you shall not do him wrong. You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.' Lev 19:33-34. 'For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.' Mat 25:35.

@@223Fi I'm sure we'll all be friends in the next world, but in this world multiculturalism clearly just means conflict. It's a burden with which we don't need to saddle ourselves. People who say otherwise either live in nice neighbourhoods or they don't speak in good faith.

@@runtsmeadow6797 so is it wrong to move to another country other than where you were born? Have you thought through the logical implications of what you're saying? My ancestors are likely Angles, Saxons and Normans - should I be moving back to somewhere in Germany, Scandinavia? Should all people of European descent leave the Americas? Should we even allow Christian missionaries to go overseas? We're all one human race, made in the image of God, made to fill the earth. Borders, boundaries and immigration controls are not unimportant, that verse tells us that it is God who raises up and brings down nations and civilisations, but He Himself is building a kingdom that will one day cover the whole earth (Daniel 2:44-45). From what you seem to be implying, I would suggest you reflect on the multicultural nature of Christ's kingdom and consider whether you are imbibing the teaching of the Bible or parroting a modern anti-immigration philosophy.

[@runtsmeadow6797]

@@223Fi I'm saying that the will of God, as expressed in his creation, takes precedence over any secular ideology, however well-meaning you imagine that ideology to be. The 'my ancestors' argument you've put forward is one that leftists constantly make (although only about the British), so you perhaps you're not keeping the best company.
