Just rewards
Congratulations to Hugh Hewitt. He announced today on his radio show that his website / blog had 1.5 Million hits in January. Wow.
The world loves him.He's worked hard for it. He wrote a favorable book arguing for Mitt Romney,
a Mormon, in the White House. He's been a completely unbiased, faithful confidant and ardent defender and promoter of Mitt Romney and his faith, even making the rounds on TV this week just before Super Tuesday.
You know, thanks to Hugh Hewitt, the politically correct message has gotten out: You're a bigot if you won't vote for Mitt Romney because he's Mormon. It's not like a man's faith has any bearing on his life or character you know.
Well, good for Mr. Hewitt. He said he was proud of his recent accomplishment. So he deserves everything he gets. I trust there will be something in it for him from Mitt Romney should Mitt Romney win the Presidency. (If there're hasn't been already.)
Mr. Hewitt has said on tape he wouldn't go back into government for ten years. We'll see.
I'm guessing a lot of people will join the Mormon church now, thanks to Mr. Hewitt's evangelism, undermining all the hard work hundreds of Christian Evangelists have put in over the last many years warning people of the wide road that leads to destruction. (Some who've suffered physical harm at the hands of Mormons.)
As the Apostle Paul said in the Bible of another like minded man,
"The Lord reward him according to his works"What others are saying
Here's a teaser
from another Christian Evangelist who witnesses to the Mormons.I'm really getting tired of hearing from Hewitt and others how if one votes against Romney simply because he's LDS, then that person is a "bigot." Similarly, I'm also tired of hearing, "We are not electing a pastor-in-chief, but a commander-in-chief."
First, suppose there is another candidate H who holds roughly identical moral and political values with R. Both are roughly identical in terms of experience and integrity, but H differs from R in that the former holds to the majority's theological values. Under such a scenario, it does not seem that one is a bigot if he or she votes for H on the basis of shared theological values. [I'm a little slow. The "H" and "R" are a reference to Huckabee v. Romney. Unfortunately, this evangelist is a para-church 501(c)(3) who compromised with the beast and so the best won't allow him to talk about politics, per se.]
Second, suppose there's a dear sweet grandma who doesn't follow politics much. She could never hold her own politically with the likes of Hewitt. Yet she loves the Lord, and wants someone in office who will not only be an individual of integrity (not necessarily a pastor, although that would be nice), but someone who will trust her Lord to lead this nation. She holds this on the basis of good reasons, not on the basis of mere preference. This is a value she does not share with Mormons, since she knows that Mormons follow an idolatrous, blasphemous, and imaginary god. For her, this value is fundamental for all other values. Thus, she refuses to vote for Romney. There is no hatred on her part toward Romney or others who are not of her faith. She would rather have someone in office, who is not simply a "person of faith," but a "person of the Christian faith."
Go to his site to see what he and other Christians scholars are saying about Hugh Hewitt, defender of the Mormon faith.
And again, congratulations to Hugh Hewitt for doing such a bang up job.
