Why would I begin the New Year with a blog like this?
Because, you and I as believers in Christ are in a war against evil.
The one thing you want to do in the coming New Year is to defeat evil.
And evil is about to take a nasty turn—a turn you need to beware of.
The hate is going to turn away from Trump to you—specifically Christians who support Trump.
The God haters have failed to bring down Trump.
He has survived, yea, even grown more popular; thriving after all their attacks.
The economy continues to amaze.
Minorities have more jobs than ever.
The Left is pulling its hair out as it tries to find a way to defeat our President.
So, they went to the dark regions of hell to find out how to do it: shame the Christians.
Take Chuck Todd, host of Meet the Press for an example.
He portrays Trump supporters as people who have been trained from childhood to believe in what he calls ‘fairy tales’
—people ‘who want to be lied to’
—and he read this from a letter to the editor, “show me a person who believes in Noah’s Ark and I will show you a Trump voter.”
And because Jesus clearly mentioned Noah and the ark in Matthew 24, this is an attack on our Lord.
This is a direct shot at Christians.
He is calling Bible believers buffoons, and by association, he is calling Jesus Christ a buffoon.
Now I get to the darker side of all this:
Christian leaders who are telling lies about you.
Remember FBI Agent Peter Strozok who said, “Just went to a Southern Virginia Wal-Mart.
I could SMELL the Trump support.”
Well, Mark Galli Editor of Christianity Today magazine just gave us his version of that:
“I know hardly anyone, let alone any evangelical Christian who voted for Trump. I describe evangelicals like me as ‘elite’ evangelicals … and this class of evangelicals has discovered that we have family members so different they seem like aliens in our midst. These other evangelicals often haven’t finished college, and if they have jobs (and apparently a lot of them don’t), they are blue-collar jobs or entry-level work. They don’t write books or give speeches; they don’t attend conferences of evangelicals for social justice or evangelicals for immigration reform. They are deeply suspicious of mainstream media. A lot of them voted for Donald Trump.”
What you have here is so smug, and misguided that I can’t find a place to begin responding to it.
Mark Galli is, by his own words, an elitist.
He is better than you—you sad, redneck, illiterate Christian Trump supporter.
He is smarter, he finished college and he has a job.
You on the other hand are entry level, remedial and, God forbid, suspicious of the mainstream media.
Worst of all, you don’t attend SJW conferences on immigration.
Conferences that we now know were funded in part by George Soros—who doesn’t care about immigrants as much as he cares about dividing the church and creating a one-world government.
Mark Galli is telling lies about you.
He doesn’t understand that the evil one has riled him up and given him a wispy need for recognition from the intellectual community.
For ten years I have watched a number of smart Christians seduced in Berkeley by the need to water down their faith in order to be accepted among the “intelligentsia.”
Remember when Peter played the hypocrite and ate with Gentiles until the Jewish believers from Jerusalem arrived?
Then he withdrew from the Gentile believers.
Paul rebuked Peter publically, and wrote about it in the book of Galatians chapter 2!
It’s the same thing. Guys like Mark Galli seem to need the approval of the media. Small wonder he appeared on CNN right after this.
Lest you think it is wrong to name names, take a look at the long list of heretics mentioned by name in the New Testament.
From Paul calling out Alexander and Hymenaeus, to John naming Diotrophes.
It is biblical to warn the sheep about wolves.
Mark Galli’s now infamous editorial where he called for Trump to be removed from office is his second lie.
There is no evidence that Trump committed any impeachable offense.
Nancy Pelosi found nothing.
That’s why she is has not gone forward with the process and presented the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate, holding up the trial she knows is going nowhere.
Mark Galli took their false accusation, and stated it as fact.
But he is not the only Christian Leader lying about you.
Beth Moore tweeted Galli saying “My hat’s off to you, @markgalli. Respect.”
She is commending someone for making a false accusation.
She also lies by signaling that no true Christian man can support Trump.
It is also possible to lie by omission.
Neither of these leaders ever criticized Obama or the Christians who violated their conscience by voting for Obama.
So let’s talk about Christian Trump supporters.
1.Many of them are positive thinkers and entrepreneurs. President Trump has a winners approach to life, and his followers resonate with that. These are the church members most likely to give big to a vision or help pay off the building. They are not the critics and legalistic people that hinder you, pastor.
2.Most Christian Trump supporters are patriotic. They love America. They believe that we live in the greatest country on earth. They are angry that our laws and our Constitution are being disregarded by secular progressives. They are angry with professional athletes who disgrace our flag and national anthem. They stand with cops, the military, and first responders.
3. The majority of Christian Trump supporters are all about common sense. They believe:
- Our trade deals with other nations made no sense.
- Political correctness is a silly idea that has morphed into a tedious tyranny.
- It makes no sense to judge Trump’s past bankruptcies while ignoring the insane legacy of socialism.
- It makes no sense to leave our borders unsecured and allow an influx of criminals who have committed millions of crimes and have killed our children.
- It makes no sense to vote for a party that would oppress the church with regulations that force Christians, Churches, and Christian employers out of business.
- It is a national disgrace that public schools in America are forcing children to participate in demonic practices such as Buddhist meditation and sexually perverted role playing.
- It makes no sense to support the party that would turn Christian witnessing into a hate crime.
- It makes no more sense to reject Trump for statements he made 11 years ago than holding Paul responsible for putting Christians to death 11 years before his Damascus road conversion.
- It makes no sense to compare Donald Trump’s tax forms to 33,000 emails that Hillary criminally erased—emails that posed a national security threat.
Shaming Christians who support Trump will be the weapon of choice for 2020. But don’t you dare be ashamed!
These Christian leaders who are lying about you, they are the ones who bear the real shame.
