The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by KingsGambit View PostPersonally, I can't separate his personal life. In the Old Testament books like Kings and Samuel, when the author evaluates whether someone was a good king or a bad king, pretty much the only criteria used is the king's personal life. I'm sure most poll respondents are considering his policy though.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

I get the SCOTUS thing. I guess it ultimately depends on whether you think continuing to support him is worth the damage to the church's credibility (and yes the world has picked up on this, and how many of his biggest supporters were vocal critics of Bill Clinton's adultery)."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

Originally posted by KingsGambit View PostI'm okay if I never hear her name again. It's clear the religious right doesn't care if Trump cheats on his wife (social conservative stalwart Tony Perkins said he gets a "mulligan" on it), and we already know the left will seize any opportunity to attack him... so it's irrelevant."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."

Originally posted by KingsGambit View PostI mean, the election is long over, and Hillary is out of the picture, but his approval rating continues to rise...
I don't know, I'm just amazed. I have family members who are devout Southern Baptists (attend church multiple times a week, daily extended prayer, etc.) and they are just gaga over Trump. I don't get it at all."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

Originally posted by lilpixieofterror View PostI think it’s simple. Trump annoys those that use their religion as a club, while not caring about their candidates being moral. Many of the same people wetting themselves over Stormy Daniels are the same ones that made excuses for serial adulterer Bill Clinton and his enabling wife Hillary Clinton."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion.

Originally posted by KingsGambit View PostBut as Christians, morals do matter to us, so it will not do to simply point to the other side and use it to make excuses for our own enabling behaviors.
1. Allow Hillary Clinton to get elected. Who had contempt for the religious right and wanted to continue with keeping her boot in their necks and who cares less about morality.
2. Allow Donald Trump to get elected. Who does morally questionable things (to say the least), but at least won’t have a boot on their neck.
Those where the only choices and continue to be the only choices. What option should the religious right choose?"The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

Originally posted by KingsGambit View PostThere's also a third option: Reluctantly vote Trump in but stop enabling/ defending him at every turn."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.
