In an interview on the Gina Loudon radio program, Missouri Republican candidate Ed Martin said that President Barack Obama and Rep. Russ Carnahan were keeping people from finding the Lord.
“We’re great because we created a place and space where people can be free,” said Martin. “And they can choose Christ, they can choose to be faithful. They can worship, and they find their way to the Lord.”
“And that’s one of the things that’s most destructive about the growth of government. It’s this taking away that freedom. The freedom — the ultimate freedom, to find your salvation, to get your salvation,” he continued.
“And I think that’s one of the things that we have to be very, very aware of that the Obama Administration and Congressman Carnahan are doing to us,” he said.
