This fella needs to re-read Exodus 18.
18 You and these people who come to you will only wear yourselves out. The work is too heavy for you; you cannot handle it alone.
19 Listen now to me and I will give you some advice, and may God be with you. You must be the people’s representative before God and bring their disputes to him.
20 Teach them his decrees and instructions, and show them the way they are to live and how they are to behave.
21 But select capable men from all the people—men who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain—and appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens.
22 Have them serve as judges for the people at all times, but have them bring every difficult case to you; the simple cases they can decide themselves. That will make your load lighter, because they will share it with you.
23 If you do this and God so commands, you will be able to stand the strain, and all these people will go home satisfied.”
24 Moses listened to his father-in-law and did everything he said.
NIV, for those not able to read the Geneva or KJV

Amen, Thank you for posting.
Coincidentally - my wife started reminding me that this ain't our home the last few weeks.
I think she's finally lost hope that Trump was going to come storming in and save the day.

He is speaking to the boomers and older folks who have finally started to realize how fricked the government and politicians are. Yet they still haven't gotten to the realization yet that elections and the winner still don't control anything. They are still holding on to hope that the right politician or party can change the country and reverse the death spiral it is in.

So, do we vote or pray?

What too many here need to hear
I agree with the pastor, but your OP title is crap. It's pretty bold to assume you know each poster's relationship with Christ and how he/she prioritizes Spirituality and politics.
Christians should base their political decisions on the moral compass given to them by Scripture, and they shouldn't put man's writings (Constitution, etc.) on the same level as Scripture. Man is fallible, and the Constitution is not absolute truth; it's a structure of government designed by men, for men, unlike God's Law.
One major problem is politics invading the church. What's happening with the UMC today is a prime example. It's hard to avoid politics in the church when the church is rewriting doctrine to suit the political and cultural mobs.
This is likely why people are discussing politics so frequently in church, because they feel that the world is attacking their beliefs, and they're seeing denominations cave to the pressures of the world. This pastor hopefully understands that, and I would hope that he addresses it somewhere in the full sermon.

He’s got a point. But it only goes so far. While yes, at the end of the day I put my faith and trust in the Lord God almighty, I also must be vigilant of the goings on in this world. But, on Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand.
I trust that as the Apostle Paul said in his letter to the Romans, “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” I would like to have heard the rest of his sermon, I’m sure he would’ve spoken on my following questions.
Are we to say as Christians, “oh well, no big deal that we’re electing people in this nation who openly mock God?”
“Hey, God doesn’t really care one fig about homosexuality or abortion? It’s of no matter to Him and therefore it ought to be of no matter to me?”
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.
I would also like to point out that the Founding Fathers appealed most heavily to providence for guidance while beginning this nation so I don’t necessarily believe that having the BOR or the Constitution in there is a bad thing. A bit strange, but not necessarily the worst either. Hell, Jefferson may as well have been quoting Exodus when he wrote the Declaration of Independence. The single greatest political statement of all time, might I add.

I hear him but he took a handful of liberty leaps. Romans 13:1 is abundantly clear in such matters
Now, is the purpose of the church political? No, it is to be a ministry of reconciliation. When we ignore our call then politics and who knows what else finds a foothold.
As a pastor, am I conservative or liberal in matters of Scripture? Neither as those are political terms. I stand on the inerrancy and infallibility of Scripture.

Pray all you want to, but it won't stop your fellow man from stepping on your neck. If you're OK with that or think it's virtuous to be subjugated or some other such masochistic horseshite, then knock yourself out.

Evangelical big box church “preacher”? Did they edit out the part where he was begging for donations?

Can we get him booked in some of these money laundering urban churches?

I wonder if preacher man will be giving a "politics doesn't matter" sermon when the commies begin outlawing religion.
Posted on 4/25/24 at 9:26 am to bayoubengals88
This so-called “preacher” doesn’t walk with God, he had let Satan in to his life. Trump does walk with God, and is trying to save this country’s soul.
Be wary of preachers who won’t tell you to vote for Trump, they have sold their souls.
