David Jeremiah: Voters Must Address Religious Freedom Under Fire
Renowned preacher David Jeremiah warns there’s a moral crisis in America right now, saying the election is a pivotal moment for the country, and believers “carry a dual responsibility to the state and to God,” and we must fulfill both mandates as Christians.
“The soul of America is at stake because the values and principles that secured this country’s greatness are being threatened,” he said. “America faces a critical situation today. Our secular society has mounted the most aggressive attack on moral values in America’s history.”

The senior pastor of Shadow Mountain Community Church in California, shared a corporate “Prayer for America,” last week in which he noted that the next election will have considerable consequences on the future.
“In this election, we face many such issues, critical moral decisions that will shape the days ahead. As Christians, we carry a dual responsibility to the state and to God, and we cannot afford to neglect either one,” he said.

Jeremiah says there’s only one thing that can heal America—”a revival of biblical proportions and a return to the moral and spiritual principles of Scripture in which our greatness is rooted”—and prayer is key.
“If you and I stand up, but don’t kneel, we have ignored the greatest resource God has given us to win the battle before us,” the pastor and author explained. “We as Christians stand the tallest when we are on our knees in prayer.”
Jeremiah encouraged all believers to not only pray but vote.
“Voting our faith is a responsibility for all of us,” he said adding to the message that believers need to “be a light.”
“The best way to influence the culture around us is to demonstrate the love of Jesus and His transforming power in everything we do and say. We are called to take the light to the darkness. So let us not hide our light under a bushel or restrain the joy of our salvation. May we reflect the words of our savior in our interactions with those around us being a living testimony of our faith.”
