Why Christians Should (Must) Support Ron Paul.

 

This will be an on-going work.  I feel I must hasten to get something out there to support my thesis why Christians (must) should support Ron Paul for president.


God's Law is the foundation of Wisdom  
         Deut 4:6, Ps 19:7  Ps119:98

What is God's position on ownership?
We are stewards of whatever God has given us, which is everthing.  God is really the owner of all. 
Ps 24:1 "The earth is the LORD'S, and all it contains,
         The world, and those who dwell in it."


What property God has given us (including the federal government), should be held in accordance with God's laws.  We are not free to choose and do what we want with the property God has given us.  I cannot dispose of my wife and children as I see fit.   The last 5 commandments of the decalogue both assume private property is held, and stipulates limits of what we can and cannot do with it.

1) Ron Paul is anti-eminent domain.

God's laws on property applies to the government as well.    The US government actually owns all the property in the US.  If you don't believe me, don't pay your property taxes.  The personal property tax laws set up by government is theft.  The practice of eminent domain is a claim reserved only for Deity. 

See all of 1Kings21


2) Ron Paul is anti-death tax.

Ez 46:18 "The prince shall not take from the people's inheritance, thrusting them out of their possession; he shall give his sons inheritance from his own possession so that My people will not be scattered, anyone from his possession."'"
See also 1Sam8:14,


3) Ron Paul is anti-progressive income tax.

  Lev 19:15 "You shall do no injustice in judgment; you shall not be partial to the poor nor defer to the great, but you are to judge your neighbor fairly."


4)  Ron Paul is anti-Federal Reserve

The printing of fiat money robs from the populace at large who does not have access to the new money, and benefits the printer of the money, namely the federal government.  Governments have often tried to water down their money, and is against God's Law.  Prov11:1, 20:10, 23, Is 1:22, Amos 8:5-6, Mic 6:10-12
Prov 20:10  Differing weights and differing measures,
             Both of them are abominable to the LORD
Prov 20:23  Differing weights are an abomination to the LORD,
            And a false scale is not good.


 

5)  Ron Paul is for free trade and is anti-tariff.

A tariff is theft.  It steals from consumers who are forced to pay higher prices, not by choice, but by government mandate.  If those of you want to protect American Auto workers, by buying only American, that is your free choice.  Just don't vote for candidates who will mandate government theft on the rest of us.  Tariffs also lead to isolationism and war.  It subsidizes inefficiency.

6)  Ron Paul will protect free trade and fight against surrendering national sovereignty.

Children are a gift from God and like everything else, parents are stewards of what God truly owns.  We are commanded to bring up our children in the admonition of the Lord."  
Psalms 127:1 "Behold, children are a gift of the Lord".
Eph 6:4  Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.
See Gen 18:19, Deut 4:9, Deut 6:6-7, Deut 11:19-21, Ps 78:5-8


11)  Ron Paul claims the federal governement should get out of education
http://www.ronpaullibrary.org/document.php?id=79
Public education has been used by liberals to create a world in their image.  John Dewey saw government schools as the vehicle to bring about socialism.
See Dan 1:3-5, 1Sam8 for what state education can lead to.


12)  Ron Paul will restore the First amendment protections of religious
free speech.
