It's hard to overstate the importance of today's election for Christian conservatives. With both the Senate and the House in Republican hands, President Trump has been able to make remarkable strides in advancing the cause of the sanctity of life and the cause of religious liberty. He has put originalist judges on the Supreme Court and on the lower courts. He has made strong moves to protect our borders and restrict illegal immigration. He has revived our economy and strengthened our military.
If the opposition party takes control of either chamber of Congress tomorrow, all of that will come to a screeching halt. Washington will be gridlocked for at least the next two years, as Democrats obstruct at every turn, launch investigations, and even start impeachment proceedings against the president.
This election is just too important for God's people to sit out. Be sure you go to the polls and encourage your believing friends to do the same. We have a historic opportunity right now to put lawmakers in office who not only share our values but have a majority in both houses of Congress. Please don't squander this opportunity!
