Trump and the Christians

 
Ever since Trump was elected, I’ve been scratching my head trying to figure out how any Christian could vote for such an evil man, who tried to take a war widow’s home under imminent domain so he could build a parking lot, was found guilty of racial discrimination, admitted to fraud, slandered honorable people, and said he could do anything he wanted because he was famous. He seems to have no morals at all. So why do Christians, especially evangelicals, support him?
An article in Vox explained it—abortion and gay marriage. As a Christian I agree, abortion is a sin and homosexual acts are an abomination. But not every American is a Christian, nor have they always been. Among the founders were Jews, and later immigrants of every faith. Many Americans are atheists and agnostics.
I would not want to live under Sharia law, would you? Then why would you want to impose our Christian law on those who aren’t Christians? After all, Jesus said to treat others as you would want to be treated. He also told us to love our neighbors, even if they’re Pagans; read the parable of the Good Samaritan.
“But my taxes are supporting abortion!” That doesn’t mean you do. Do you ask your grocer their view of abortion? She may well have had one herself. I was completely against the immoral and unnecessary second Iraq war, but my taxes paid for it.
Now I’d like to talk about a very late term abortion. Donna’s birth was the result of her mother being raped, and she would have been aborted early today. But in the 1950s abortion was illegal. The cause of her birth caused her so much mental anguish that she committed suicide, a terrible sin. Had she been aborted by a doctor, the sin would have been his, not hers.
If you’re gay, I’ll pray for you. I won’t pray that God will make you straight, because it’s His will that you were born gay, It isn’t a choice that a person can make. But your homosexuality has no effect on me. Note that being gay is no sin, it’s acting on that urge. But again, gay “marriage” has nothing to do with me.
Now, I mentioned earlier that I would not want to live under Sharia law. Most Christians wouldn’t want to live under Christian law. Tattoos are forbidden, piercings are forbidden, and a man shaving his entire face is forbidden. Under Christian law, adultery would not only be a sin, but a crime as well.
Now let me talk about what you have refused to think about, the fact that you are actively supporting sin. You’re supporting tearing families apart. You’re supporting caging children. You are supporting hatred.
Your soul is at peril for supporting Trump. It’s plain to see that he worships money, not God.
The love of money is the root of all evil. I’d rather have a Muslim or Jewish president, at least they worship the same God we do, not the golden god Plutus.
