"For the time is coming," says the LORD, "when I will raise up a righteous descendant from King David's line. He will be a King who rules with wisdom. He will do what is just and right throughout the land. And this will be His name: 'The LORD Is Our Righteousness.' In that day Judah will be saved, and Israel will live in safety. [NLT]
Yes, I know Jeremiah writes regarding the coming of my Lord and Savior, but wouldn't it be an incredible blessing to have a candidate for office who was seeking to exercise the responsibilities of the office upon the righteousness of the LORD, God the Almighty? Maybe I should be using this as a standard to evaluate my votes next November?
