What are your thoughts on James 4:17 Idolater?




How do you believe it pertains to politics and picking political leaders?
Picking political leaders pertains to representative democracy. Why would one believe that it pertains to representative democracy?

Picking political leaders pertains to representative democracy. Why would one believe that it pertains to representative democracy?

The Bible instructs people what kind of political leaders to choose (Exodus 18:21) as well as the role of civil government (Romans 13; 1 Peter 2:13-17). Would you agree if you're not following biblical guidelines when voting for a political candidate that you're knowingly sinning?
 
Thoughts on James 4:17 and how it pertains to civil goverment?
James 4:17 - Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin. [NASB]


One has to be careful taking a single passage from the Bible and making it into a command. We are instructed that two or three witnesses be needed elsewhere in the scriptures. It seems prudent to search for two or three scriptures, in context, to support any command. Are you saying this is a sin unto death?
2 Chronicles 25:1 - Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 25:2 - He did right in the sight of the LORD, yet not with a whole heart.
2 Chronicles 25:3 - Now it came about as soon as the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, that he killed his servants who had slain his father the king.
2 Chronicles 25:4 - However, he did not put their children to death, but did as it is written in the law in the book of Moses, which the LORD commanded, saying, "Fathers shall not be put to death for sons, nor sons be put to death for fathers, but each shall be put to death for his own sin." [NASB]


Building upon this OT scripture, it's not our sin if our civil government does things God has warned us against. You are responsible for your actions, not the actions of others. Your responsibility is spreading the "Good News" to win as many people as possible for the kingdom to come. We should look at the Book of Acts to seem how the Apostles and Disciples of Jesus preached.
Romans 5:10 - For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.
Romans 5:11 - And not only this, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
Death in Adam, Life in Christ
Romans 5:12 - Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned--
Romans 5:13 - for until the Law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. [NASB]


Romans 5:13 is an interesting passage. Between the time of God's oral commands to Adam and the Ten Commandments (The Law), sin was not imputed because there was no law except God's oral commands to Adam.
Romans 5:13 - Paul will now demonstrate that Adam's sin affected the whole race. He first points out that sin was in the world during the period from Adam to the giving of the law at Mount Sinai. But during that time there was no clearly revealed law of God. Adam had received a clear oral commandment from the Lord, and many centuries later the Ten Commandments were a distinct written revelation of divine law. But in the intervening period men did not have a legal code from God. Therefore, although there was sin during that time, there was no transgression, because transgression is the violation of a known law. But sin is not imputed as transgression when there is no law forbidding it. [Believer's Bible Commentary]


We don't live in a Theocracy. It's not even a Democracy. It's a Constitutional Republic. How much can we expect others of different beliefs to follow Biblical rules? Are you preaching the good news or a gospel of your own beliefs?

The feminists hate her.

You hate her.

That's recommendation enough for me :thumb:

Conservatives better realize soon that you libertarians aren't our allies, but are our sworn enemies.

Which has nothing to do with my question. Again: If God commands people to select God fearing people when choosing government leaders, are those who support candidates like Donald Trump who support the Godless, child indoctrinating, institution destroying homosexual agenda sinning when they vote for Donald Trump or Joe Biden?

It has everything to do with James 4:17. You've taken a scripture out of context to try to prove whatever supports your agenda.

Boasting About Tomorrow
James 4:13 - Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit."
James 4:14 - Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.
James 4:15 - Instead, you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that."
James 4:16 - But as it is, you boast in your arrogance; all such boasting is evil.
James 4:17 - Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin. [NASB]

I hate it when people take a scripture out of context and try to make it a law. The Bible Knowledge Commentary says this by James 4:17.
James 4:17
It is likely that James 4:1-17’s concluding sentence, Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn’t do it, sins, is related not only to the matter of boasting but also to all the advice given thus far in the epistle. “Then” (lit., “therefore,” oun) supports this contention. James’ readers could not plead ignorance. The letter abounds with exhortations to do good. To fail to comply is clearly sin.

To attain spiritual maturity a believer must do the good he now knows. He must stand confidently on God’s Word even in trials and temptations. He must compassionately serve his brethren without prejudicial favoritism but with practical faith. He must speak carefully with a controlled tongue and wise, cultivated thought. He must submit in contrition to his all-powerful Father, Lawgiver, and Judge with a humble spirit, just action, and a trusting heart. He must be what God wants him to be, do what God wants him to do, speak as God wants him to speak, and sense what God wants him to sense.

I am willing to discuss Holy Scripture with you but I won't support your scripture twisting.

You've been made aware that Donald Trump is a devout homosexual activist, voting for him would be a sin as it goes against God's commands on selecting civil leaders (Exodus 18:21) and what He says is the role of civil government (Romans 13:4).

You are doing the Socialists bidding by supporting anyone but President Trump. Are you that afraid of homosexuality? Where is your proof of activism? Are you afraid of: Roman Catholicism; atheism; premarital sex; alcohol; etc. Have you gouged out your eyes after seeing something inappropriate? Who are you that I should accept your interpretation? Your understanding of Romans 13:4 is wrong.

The Trump campaign, trying so desperately to get the homosexual vote, put out this information showing how Joe Biden was against homosexuality over 2 decades ago.

Predictably, he turned on them when he thought it would appeal to his base. He's not their friend; he just wants them to think he is. This is as true of the religious right as it is true of the LGBT people. He has no loyalty to anyone or anything other than himself.

Predictably, he [Donald Trump] turned on them [the homosexual/transgender movement] when he thought it would appeal to his base. He's not their friend; he just wants them to think he is.

The evidence shows differently:
Donald Trump's homosexual/transgender activism for the first 3+ years since becoming President of the United States:


* On November 14, 2016, Republican President-elect Donald Trump stated the following on CBS' 60 Minutes in response to a question asking if he supports "marriage equality":
LESLEY STAHL: Do you support marriage equality?
TRUMP: It — it’s irrelevant because it was already settled. It’s law. It was settled in the Supreme Court. I mean it’s done.
STAHL: So even if you appoint a judge that —
TRUMP: It’s done. It — you have — these cases have gone to the Supreme Court. They’ve been settled.


And, I’m fine with that

*On January 12, 2017, one week before Donald Trump was sworn in as POTUS, homosexual activist Anthony Scaramucci was named Director of the White House Office of Public Liaison and Intergovernmental Affairs (i.e. senior advisor to President-elect Trump).

Religious freedom and pro-marriage advocate Professor Robert P. George tweeted that the executive order contains no substantial conscience protections. (page 105, post #1563)
