Since we believe the Constitution to be a secular document, these types of situations can't be avoided in the civil courts and legislation. I understand why that SDA legislator made the change of vote he made, but it is a terrible position to put yourself in.
As far as the SDA legislator being pointed out, Satan knows whom he wants to prejudice people against.

Daniel would not compromise his integrity or rationalize to permit wrong doing. It was his privileged to represent God in all his dealings. But not so with other captives from Israel who were in Babylon at the time.
They found a way to compromise that appeared to be right in their own eyes and were never heard of again on Babylon's political scene. And when the golden idol was the test, they did not stand for God because they had not made the preparations to stand in the earlier trials. There were Jews that bowed to the image of gold, but not all.
This SDA lawmaker erred in that he consulted his pastor rather than his God and the word of God. Excellent post! The Church is on the slippery slope of compromise....
Christ is waiting with longing desire for the manifestation of Himself in His church. When the character of Christ shall be perfectly reproduced in His people, then He will come to claim them as His own. {COL 69}

I wouldn't blame what this SDA politician did and what his pastor told him on the whole Church. Daniel would not compromise his integrity or rationalize to permit wrong doing. It was his privileged to represent God in all his dealings. But not so with other captives from Israel who were in Babylon at the time.
