Tough one here. I'm sharing this in hopes of getting some other opinions. I agree that the world would be a far better place if the people, in it, would live by the Nazarene's 2nd commandment. And follow the examples that He set. This article sends me mixed messages. Near the end the Author starts a paragraph with the words "Evil preaches", not going to quote the whole thing because you are capable of reading it for yourself. The Editors, maybe with the Author's input, maybe not, then end the piece, with an enhanced quote that does the very thing the notated paragraph talks against. There's a couple of other places that either the Author or Editors caused me to shake my head. What do you think about it?

I'm more concerned with the evangelical right adopting the President as their new Messiah/Christ figure... To use your theology to blanket a politician from accountability is reprehensible, and merely a continuation of personal politics by other means.

you are absolutely right. and Teddy was spot on with that quote. a president, or any other elected official, is just a person. as such, they are as flawed as you and i. to take their word as "gospel" does a disservice to not only yourself, but your country. it's "we the people" not "we the sheople" (sheep/people)

I fail to see where your written response, in any way, has anything to do withe subject matter. The Roosevelt quote is good. Did you read this, or were you just after the Trailblazer points.

SGT (Join to see) - I did read it, and it comprises nothing more than evangelical "leaders" mandating their flock worship the president and cherry picking the bible to support their premise...
For example, they use the following bible passage as "proof" that Trump must be supported without thought, logic or reason:
Romans 13:1-2 reads: “Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.”

SFC Michael Hasbun -Taken out of context. "But then that raises the question of all the opposition to Barack Obama when he was president." The Verses used support the Roosevelt quote. not Your Idea of Evangelicals.

I think Jesus would be most pleased if we just went about our lives trying not to be jerks to each other. Keep God’s law in yourself and your home, keep the law of the land everywhere else.
