The Voters Guide is a Guide
According to the Westminster Confession of Faith, the Bible is "the only
rule of faith and obedience." We have tried in this Guide to bring
Scriptural truths to bear on the two ballot measures we must vote on in
Oregon this year. But good men can and do disagree, particularly when it
comes to what can be very complex public policy issues. Please use this
guide as a guide, not as a rulebook. Think about the issues carefully and
prayerfully, then vote on the issues you are confident of, and don't feel
compelled to vote if you are uncertain.
