I did NOT do the meme above, portraying VP Mike Pence as a Judas / sellout / traitor. (My OWN "Mike Pence Meme" will appear at the BOTTOM of the page). However before I comment on the one above, which I saw on Facebook, let me state clearly that I DO WISH MIKE PENCE HAD FELT THE LIBERTY TO DECERTIFY THE STOLEN ELECTION ON JAN. 6th!! Apparently, he believes the Constitution does NOT give him that right and, in that context, though BITTERLY disappointing to me, he DID what was right, according to his present light.
Great artwork, great MEME from that standpoint....but if the man honestly could not see that he had the right to do what we wanted him to do, he followed his conscience and the Constitution. We can agree to disagree, but in my mind that doesn't make him a JUDAS, it makes him a consistent Christian who sought to "obey God rather than men" and realized that "Whatsoever is not of faith is sin," as the Scriptures instruct us.
Now, if there is evidence that he went AGAINST his conscience because he was convinced he COULD upend the election, that's a different story. *****And I'm not saying President Trump told him to do WRONG!!***** I'm saying that the two men apparently understand the Constitution differently even as many Constitutional EXPERTS disagree!! And it seems to me that Pence sought to please God rather than the most powerful man in the world, I find that admirable. Again....I hope you realize that I wished he COULD have done what Trump wanted him to do, I really do.

Christians are told by the Lord to "Call no man Master."
Pence is not "Judas." And, as much as I love Donald Trump, HE is not JESUS, I'm sorry!! Christians are called to follow CHRIST...is there EVIDENCE that Pence received a payoff from Pelosi and is working for CHINA?? Lacking EVIDENCE I'll side in DEFENSE of Mike PENCE. (Lol), but seriously, I'm sure it was no easy decision for Pence because we ALL have heard that Pence has been "incredibly loyal" to Trump throughout his Presidency. President Trump HIMSELF has said it!! So has Franklin Graham.
It was hard for Pence for ANOTHER reason...he knew that by allowing Biden's certification he will NEVER get a chance to be PRESIDENT now. Never. Even if the evil Dems DON'T fix it now so that no other Republican can ever run, the majority of Conservatives see Pence as a RINO SELLOUT.
I see him as a consistent Christian who lived according to the light he had, in the BIGGEST decision of his (and America's) life. And I see him as one who didn't violate his conscience for the sake of possible temporal gain. He didn't gain 30 pieces of silver, he LOST the chance to ever be the most powerful man in the world by following his conviction. Okay, below is MY Mike Pence meme....
And here's the only OTHER one I did this week. Now THIS guy, who is a "minister" that preaches abortion, HE is a "Judas"!!
