    If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

    This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

      Naw, we should trash EVERYTHING he said, because Orange Man Bad.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Several years ago I spent a couple of days sitting at a table in the local grocery store getting signatures on a petition by Focus on the Family Canada regarding tightening up laws on child pornography. The petition was sent to the federal government.

        In the 2 days I was there hundreds of people coming in the door signed the petition. But one man sticks in my mind.

        He picked up a pen to sign, then asked me who was sponsoring the petition. I told him, and he threw the pen down on the table and started to walk away. I asked him why he changed his mind about signing, he replied that it was because the petition was by FOTF.

        I then asked him if he cared about helping to stop child pornography, and he replied yes.

        Then I said, "Why, then, does it matter who is sponsoring the petition if the outcome is to help children". He said, "It's a Christian organization" and walked away.

        THAT is the very same attitude I see here with all you Trump-haters. If the outcome is good for children, why do you care about whatever motives the man has?

        You are so blinded by your hatred that you can't see the good! What a load of crap you all talk!

          That's a pretty good point, CP. Particularly since you all tend to agree, Orange man is bad.

            Because we know his ultimate motives are not good. Politicians often use wedge issues, good or bad, to acheive their own hidden objectives. Trump couldn't care less about the abortion issue.

              You are not a mind reader, Jim. You have no idea what anybody's true motives are.

                EGGzackly.... Orange Man Bad, so ANYTHING he does that is good is yet another excuse to shamelessly attack a Christian brother who is not as anti-Trump.

                  Trump is FAR from perfect, Jim - I have never tried to say otherwise.

                  Feel better?

                    As opposed to your motives, which are always pure and noble?

                    Yes, like the Democrats foisting this incredibly partisan impeachment sham on the American people under the guise of "the Constitution", when Al Green let the cat out of the bag.

                    Rep. Al Green: "I'm Concerned If We Don't Impeach This President, He Will Get Re-Elected"

                        Interesting, blanket accusations that are soundly countered by a post of mine just two posts back from this one of yours. Are you sure you are not afflicted by your own hatred and blindness?

                          You were espousing the end justifies the means. And it is valid to criticize that, even if it is a Christian that is saying it. Especially if it is a Christian that is saying it.

                            No, Jim - that's the conclusion to which you came because of your bias.

                            And it is valid to criticize that, even if it is a Christian that is saying it.
                            I fully expect you to criticize nearly anything I say.

                            Especially if it is a Christian that is saying it.
                            It's just precious that you do so with such warmth and love.
