That time when some evangelicals believe they have become so famous and can now simply give opinions rather than the voice of God. In the end they just sound like the world. Christianity Today (CT) promotes an opinion that Trump is very immoral hence must be removed from office?
My question to CT, did God first consult with you to check the morals of Trump before He put him in office? I know your answer is No. Therefore, he won’t consult with you to keep him in office. You believe that your opinion to remove Trump makes you relevant in such a day? No, it makes you sound like those who don’t know God and your impact on them becomes zero.
I thought Christ is seeking to save the immoral just like the woman caught in adultery. She was going to be stoned without evidence as these hypocrites ignored the man who did the same. Is Trump the first American president to be immoral? If so, then evangelicals in CT must do what Christ did, instead of siding with the hypocrites to cast stones to one they consider very immoral. He saved the one who was very immoral. That is how evangelicals become relevant not the other way round.
My last questions to CT that claims a reputation of fearing God: Have you made prayers for Trump who is in authority or you are busy seeing how immoral he is? Have you made intercessions (standing in the gap, to bring him before God that God may deliver him from the immorality) for Trump? Have you started giving thanks to God for Trump as your leader or you’re busy whining and in frustration casting stones as the hypocrites do? I know you can’t answer those questions in the affirmative because if you could, you would not be calling for the removal of a leader you are praying for, interceding for and giving thanks to God for!
May evangelicals walk the talk and stop sounding like those who mock God!! Have you forgotten the wisdom of David? He knew God had rejected Saul as King yet believed that only God who had anointed Saul had the sole power to remove Saul. Even when Saul was very immoral, David did not support anyone who wanted to take Saul Down. David knew the ruler of the universe had the power to raise up one and put down another.
Lastly but not least, in God’s eyes, what your government calls illegal is not necessarily immoral in God’s eyes. The standards of morality are not man made but God founded. Morality is not judged by how you feel but by what God says. If God says something is right, the whole world can scream wrong until they turn green and God shall not be moved.
In fact today some people think it is immoral to pray for a leader like Trump. No! It is wicked, immoral and rebellious to refuse to pray for your leader but then use your emotions and opinions to tear him down. 1 Timothy 2:1. Do you think Christ is having a party and thanking you here for hating the president you call immoral? No, it makes Him sad that those who claim to know Him are nothing but a bunch of those having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof.
