I‘ve said from the moment that Donald Trump was elected
president of the United States that the over 80 percent of evangelical
Christians who supported him sold out God for the promise of political power.
The recent trial of former campaign chairman Paul Manafort on 18 charges of
financial fraud (yesterday, he was found guilty on eight) and a guilty plea
from his former lawyer Michael Cohen, who bribed two women with whom the
president had affairs to maintain their silence, should leave no doubt about Trump’s character — or lack thereof.
And I’ll bet you any money that it won’t matter in the least to his Christian apologists, who would complain about the “fake news media” and the “deep state,” among others, out to get him rather than admit to what he’s done. The reality remains, however, that had any Democrat done even a 10th of what Trump has been involved with they would have tried to run him or her out on a rail. (They’re probably still calling for the head of Hillary Clinton, saying, “Lock her up!” On what charge?)

At this point, we’re talking about denial based on delusion,
and that does the witness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ absolutely no good. We
come across as hypocrites to a younger generation and an embarrassment to much
of the rest of the world because of the lack of trust in God to keep his people.
Time to pay the piper …
