 In 2016, I was watching TV and happened upon the Democratic National Convention.  As they showed the delegates, the cameras viewed in on a woman.  Something seemed wrong.  She was wearing a dress.  She had on heels and women's jewelry.  She wore a woman's make-up.  Then I realized she was a man dressed as a woman!  A slight beard had begun to appear on her face.  I was very shocked!


Apparently the political parties are approving and accepting homosexuals and lesbians as delegates to their national conventions and approving them in their parties.


(I am very non-political and do not vote for either party.)


Somehow seeing this man dressed as a woman at a political convention showed me how very evil the world of politics is today.


 A Christian could not be a part of being involved in such worldly evil.


For the Bible says the following concerning homosexuals and lesbians.


Romans 1:24-28   Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:   Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.


For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:  And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.


And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

As a Christian, we cannot participate in anything that is contrary to Bible for the apostle John says to approve such and wish them well would be to make ourselves as a participant in their evil deeds.
 
II John 
 
8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.



9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.



10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:



11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

 
Politics in every way is filled with hatred and will cause the Christian to hate and to fight the other party.   
 
And we must abstain from those things which cause us to hate.
 
To vote for either party is to approve worldly men who do evil things.
 
Instead, the apostle Paul says to pray for those in authority.  
 
I Timothy 2:1-2  I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
 
If we learn to hate the other political party, how can we pray for those in authority if they win the election?
 
As Christians we are separated from the work of worldly men and women.  We live in this world but are not of this world.  Our goal is to live in peace, without spot and blameless in the sight of God, as we wait for Jesus who takes us out of this world and takes us to the new heaven and new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness.  (II Peter 3:14 & Rev. 21:21-5)
 
We cannot be a part of politics and vote for men of this world allowing ourselves to be a part of their evil.
