41% Of Church-Going Christians Prefer Atheists To Vote For Them: Will Silent Consent To The Demonic In America Require Accountability Before God?
According to a September 26, 2024 interview with David Barton, Founder of WallBuilders, recent polling data shows a significant decline in voting among Christians. Among active church goers, only 59% plan to vote, compared to 99% in 2016 and 91% in 2020.
The 41% of church-going Christians who prefer atheists to choose our leaders, that is, those who are not planning to vote, provide about 7-8 reasons for not voting, such as their vote doesn’t matter, the election is rigged, etc.
Even more alarming is the decline in moral and Christian values among voters, among church going Christian voters:
- 56% say there are no absolute right and wrong
- 42% support abortion, even up to the 9th month
- 30% support socialism instead of capitalism
None of these issues represent the Judeo-Christian values held by Christians since our founding.
Silence In The Pulpits And Silence Equals Consent
17% of the Christians surveyed said they are more likely to vote if they hear something from the pulpit. Yet, only 2.8% of pastors are mentioning political issues in the pulpit right now, though the news is filled with political and cultural issues that need to be addressed through Biblical teaching.
Christians need to remember they are accountable to God, instead of saying “well, I didn’t do anything, didn’t vote, because I didn’t like any of the candidates.” A low turnout among Christians could have a major impact on the country’s future. Silence equals consent.
Barton’s call to action is clear: pastors must encourage their congregations to vote, and Christians must remember they are accountable to God, urging them to think beyond one election as part of a long-term process of preserving their values.
If Your Church’s Pulpit is Silent On The Election
For the 97.2% of church-going Christians who won’t hear a single word from the pulpit about the most consequential election in our history, the issues facing Christians in America, in fact, the fate of our nation and the world, this excerpt will be that message you need to hear (links for the entire message included below).
Sermon Excerpt from Pastor Bryon McWilliams On Why And How Christians Should Vote
If we want to stand for morality, if we want to stand for godliness, and if we want to see some good things happen in America, if Christians do not vote, you can hang it up, cause it ain’t going to happen.
It happens because people will go to that election box.
So, we have two people to choose from. And I want to say there should be no confusion whatsoever, really, about who to vote for.
In fact, I will tell you, and by the time I finish this message I think you will understand it very clearly—that this should be the easiest, most clear-cut decision on who to vote for that we’ve had handed down to us in a generation.
In fact, I call it a no-brainer.
Because these two parties who I mentioned a moment ago, are not morally equal. They’re not morally equal.
What we have witnessed come forth from the Democrat Party is far more than changing morals, it is demonic. It is anti-God, through and through, and thus evil and demonic.
They promote everything that God hates.
If you do not believe in child sacrifice, then this election is a no-brainer.
If you do not believe in the undermining of the family, the election is a no-brainer.
If you believe that the Bible teaches that there are only two genders, male and female, it’s a no-brainer.
If you believe that the brainwashing, sexualization, and mutilation of our children is wrong, it’s a no-brainer.
The Democrat Party is anti-God and stands for all that God hates and it’s a no-brainer.
You say, “Pastor, prove that.” I can prove that because Kamala Harris proved that.
At her own rally, when someone shouted, “Jesus is Lord,” at her own rally, she stopped intentionally, and said, “You’re at the wrong rally“ with a laugh.
There’s no joke in that. You don’t laugh when someone says “Jesus is Lord.” And you don’t scorn when somebody says “Jesus is Lord.”
That fact alone should make the skin crawl on every Bible believing Christian in America, right there.
It’s a no-brainer.
Radio Show Host Michael Berry Interviews Pastor McWilliams
After playing the above clip, Michael Berry interviewed Pastor McWilliams.
He asked him three questions related to his message and PAGA urges you to listen to the First Odessa Pastor’s answers (sermon excerpt begins at 3:42, with interview afterwards).
The questions were:
- Why do you speak on why people should vote and how they should vote and what the issues are facing Christians in America, why do you do that?
- Do you get complaints [for preaching about political issues]?
- Why is it that other pastors don’t do what you are willing to do?
Watch and listen to Pastor McWilliams’ powerful sermon, America, A Nation In Peril.
Did Trump Tell Christians They Don't Have To Vote Again?
The demonic left has caused people to ask, “Did Trump tell Christians they don’t have to vote again?” The answer is, “absolutely, NOT.” This ridiculous statement is more propaganda from the Democrat Party who can garner votes only by cheating and deception through their propaganda media. Trump absolutely tells, even urges, Christians to get out and vote. And Vote Trump!
Prayer:
Sovereign Lord,
Awesome are You from Your sanctuary; the God of Israel—You are the One Who gives power and strength to his people. Blessed be God! (Psalm 68:35). Lord, You shall arise, Your enemies shall be scattered; and those who hate You shall flee before You! (Psalm 68:1). “The words of the LORD are pure words” (Psalm 12:6) and our hope for the future is built upon the Rock that is immovable and unshakable.
Father, how I thank You for Pastor Byron McWilliams. A man who knows that Your words are pure words. Therefore, he preaches Your Word, he feeds Your sheep, guides them in the way of righteousness, and though they walk through the valley of the shadow of death, so to speak, he cares for them and the generations to come.
Lord, bless this sermon, use it to plant and water all over America, that conditions are prepared for You to give growth. Increase the fruit of discernment, faith producing works, Christ-centeredness instead of self-centeredness, and the confident civic participation of each child of God, as one of the “consent of the governed.” Father, may there be an abundant harvest among Your people.
Bless, encourage, and move wills throughout this nation with the message placed upon Pastor McWilliams’ heart by the Holy Spirit, that Christians shall understand the times, and get out to vote. The devil has our nation in his evil claws and we must resist and stand firmly against him.
Use this sermon to alleviate fear and greed in the silent pulpits throughout the U.S. Give pastors courage to speak the truth. I am convinced that if pastors would preach the Truth, the pews would be filled to overflowing and churches would be on fire. History tells us that a flourishing Christianity enriches everybody and everything around. Glory to You Lord God, for it is You sending forth power from heaven to redeem and resurrect the broken and downtrodden places on earth.
Father, You have blessed this nation abundantly, so many opportunities, so many chances. But the thief has bound the strong-man and has just about plundered our entire house. Oh Lord, forgive! Be gracious to us and grant us peace. We grew complacent believing that elected officials had our best interests at heart. But they were full of greed and self-serving. Thank You for Donald Trump who has awakened so many of us to the demonic and evil in our nation. Wake up others. Pour the Spirit of Truth upon the entire nation. Give us discernment to test the spirits and recognize the atrocious lies of the enemy.
Jesus! We need Your help. If it be Your will, give us another chance. “O our God, will You not execute judgment on them? For we are powerless against this great horde that is coming against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on You” (2 Chronicles 20:12). We are looking to You for help, “O LORD, there is none like you to help, between the mighty and the weak.” (2 Chronicles 14:11).
Thwart and hinder the Democrat Party cheating going on already in so many places. Lord, let Republicans keep the House to prevent the Democrats’ sinister plans to not certify the election. And continue to protect the life of President Donald Trump. Oh Heavenly Father! Give us another chance. Yet not our will but Yours be done.
My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, have mercy on us, for we have sinned against You. Deliver us from evil.
In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
“I feel strongly if the church is silent during these perilous times, if the church is silent when we see all the evil going on, then I’ll stand before God, I’ll have to give an account of why I did not speak up and why I did not warn the sheep who are under my responsibility as their shepherd, so yeah I get complaints, but the complaints are not going to stop me from what God wants me to do.” – Pastor Byron McWilliams, First Odessa Church Texas
