The Christian
Conservatives have anointed,
King Donald the first the father of Jesus Christ?
Can anyone imagine
Creator God
looking down on Mother Earth
today and saying,
Matthew 3:17 17And a voice from
heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with
him I am well pleased."
Mark 1:11 11And a voice came
from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with
you I am well pleased."
Matthew 17:5 5While he was
still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with
him I am well pleased. Listen to
him!"
Luke 3:22 22and the Holy
Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from
heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with
you I am well pleased.

Trump’s no King
David, that’s for sure

It is stunning
how Christian conservatives continue to support President Trump, even comparing
him to King David, even though Trump's record is decidedly the opposite of the
message of the Bible.
Perhaps it is because they have discovered a new gospel,
the gospel of Donald.
The traditional
gospels (Mathew, Luke, Mark, and John) speak of a humble serving Christ
inviting his followers to love and serve God and others by feeding the hungry,
welcoming the foreigner, and clothing the naked. Christ states very clearly
that his followers must always forgive those who hurt them.
The gospel of Donald
is quite a contrast.
It promotes
racism, wealth, sexism, and xenophobia. It
frowns on food stamps that help feed the hungry and it recommends doing away
with the Affordable Care Act that gives health care to millions of poor people.
The author of this gospel does this with a style that ridicules humility and
forgiveness.
This is where the
Christian conservatives need to study King David's life.
After committing
adultery with Batheheba and then having her husband, Uriah the Hittite killed,
King David asked God for forgiveness.
