Donald Trump and Evangelicals

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. - Genesis 1:27 KJV 

This morning, I came across this meme from a video posted by Donald Trump's Truth Social account last night. Shocking, isn't it? How can it be that a grown man would do something so outrageous and foolish? Has he lost his mind to dementia or is it just his hate-filled heart exposing itself? There are so many ways I can point out the depravity of the man now serving as President of the United States, but perhaps I should sadly point out the hypocrisy of the Christians who supported and still support such a man.

You would have to be totally out of touch with reality to not have known that Donald Trump lacks basic human decency. There were certainly many red flags about his character when he ran for the presidency in 2016, but this term he has completely revealed the type of person he is: mean, petty, vindictive, corrupt, and due to his past friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, possibly a pedophile.

The man has no decorum and lacks respect for other human beings. This, my fellow Christians, includes you, too. You are nothing more than a means to an end - his winning the 2024 Presidency. You've sold your inheritance of liberty and freedom for a bowl of stew much like Esau sold his to Jacob. You were so hungry for a "seat at the table," you didn't care how you got there or with whom.

Instead of trusting in the Lord you claim to serve, you hitched your wagon to a reprobate man and cheered him on as he mocked and slandered others. There are plenty of clips from his campaign rallies showing him doing this; you would have to have gone underground to not know what a disrespectful human being he is. 

Let's not forget that many of you defended him when he said the 2020 election was stolen and then proceeded to use his influence to incite a riot at the US Capitol in January of 2021. May I also remind you that lives were lost at that event? 

Since Trump's reelection, his administration has been constantly in the news for pushing the boundaries of our Constitution and the Republican form of Government our Founding Fathers gave us. Our liberty is truly under assault by this man and his administration.

I implore my fellow Christians to repent of their complicity in this man's assault on our nation and everything good and noble it stands for - yes, it is still standing, be it ever so weakly. And with God's help we will continue to stand, but Christians must return to their first love - Christ and repent of their support of this wicked man they helped put in the Presidency.

May God have mercy. In Lord Jesus name, I pray. Amen.
