State of Michigan Representative (not US House Representative) State Rep. Karen Whitsett announced that she is not running for re-election.
"...I can no longer compromise it to fit a party platform or to please people,” Whitsett said."
"Whitsett said she “cannot reconcile” the Democrat Party’s platform with scripture. "
“For me, it is impossible to be a faithful follower of Jesus Christ while remaining a member of the Democratic Party as it exists today,” she said.
“I have compromised my relationship with Jesus for too long, and I’m grateful God did not give up on me. He gave me time to repent, turn, and be fully devoted to Him,” she added.
Whitsett specifically cited the party’s position on abortion, LGBTQ+, and “the push to redefine gender.”
"She said abortion in particular has been a scourge in the black community, and called it “black-on-black crime.”
“My allegiance is to Jesus Christ, and I’m choosing God’s business over man’s approval,” she said.

ReplyDeleteSad that people of the Word are clearly NOT welcome in Politics.
ReplyDeleteSeems our founding fathers were pretty smart:
John Adams: 'Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.'
I’m not so sure. The democrats and liberals have been at war with God for a long, long time. And she’s just realizing it now? Pull my other finger…
ReplyDelete“ So render unto Caesar’s what is Caesar’s and unto God what is God’s”. This single sentence is what defines the separation of the Church from the state.
