Even Christianity Today Says Trump Has to Go
Dec 20, 2019 16:37:02 #
One of the things I just can't wrap my head around is the support Trump has been getting from Christians. (Or at least people who call themselves Christians). Trump is probably the most immoral person ever to serve as president... to the point where he actually takes pride in how immoral he is. So the support he's been getting from Evangelists (certainly not the Catholics) really doesn't make any sense.
Well, today a pillar of that Evangelism, Christianity Today, has come out with a strong statement, calling Trump out for what he really is.
https://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/december-web-only/trump-should-be-removed-from-office.html
The article mentions that the Democrats have been relentless in their prosecution of Trump since day one but unlike many others on the right, CT didn't let that reality eclipse the reality of Trump's immoral sins. The article says...
"The facts in this instance are unambiguous: The president of the United States attempted to use his political power to coerce a foreign leader to harass and discredit one of the president’s political opponents. That is not only a violation of the Constitution; more importantly, it is profoundly immoral."
CT is calling for Trump's removal. I applaud their stance and wonder how long will take for the other Christians still supporting him to wash the politics off their sense of morals and take the step to reconsider their position the way I always thought good Christians would.

Yes. Then we can elevate ourselves to the REAL morals of the left, like abortion on demand, murder of babies after they're born, open borders, unabated sexual deviancy in every form known, open borders, destruction of a free market, making freedom of speech illegal. I could go on, but it's a waste of time. The left has NO moral supremacy, just Trump hatred.

Yes, you are absolutely correct, but the Progressives hate Trump so much that nothing else matters.

Christianity Today is a bunch of apostates. The Bible warned us about this.

Has anyone considered the possibility that both parties are wrong---e.g., that both the obvious immorality of Trump's republican party and the democrats' support of abortion, sexual deviancy, etc. are equally bad; that immoral ends do not justify moral ends regardless of which party promotes it.
It seems that the assumption is that if the other side is wrong, my side must be right, which is narrow logic and myopic vision.

It was one man's opinion. And Christianity Today is not a pillar of biblical Christianity.
I'm not condemning what he said just pointing that out.

Howdy, howdy. You said..... "obvious immorality of Trump's republican party.". Please clarify, validate and restate what exactly those obvious immoralities are because all I'm seeing and hearing is what Progressives and their propaganda arm, The MSM, claim. I remember when we used to have an objective and free press. Please also include what conservatives have done that, as you claim, is equal to killing 60 plus million unborn children.
