"I am your retribution" is the opposite of "Love your enemies." White, conservative, Evangelical Christianity is phony. [View all]

So, be honest. If Trump is a Christian's retribution, then that Christian has failed to acknowledge and practice this basic, core principle of his or her faith. And it means that all of the other evil that goes along with Trump, his adulterous affairs, his pathological lying, his cheating, the hatred and vitriol he spews against those he perceives as disloyal to him, also belongs to those who support him and accept this rhetoric. There's no way around it. And there's no Christian theological or doctrinal argument that can be made from biblical evidence to support this position.

Jesus told his disciples and followers, "If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me." So, in Christian practice, following Trump as retribution is denying Christ as redemption. And it is not taking up a cross, it is taking up the adulterous affairs, greed that perpetrates dishonesty in business dealings, pathological lying, and all of the worldly evil that Trump claims as his identity.

The support this man receives as a candidate for this nation's highest office is evidence that many conservative Evangelicals are no longer sincere Christians, if they ever were, but in believing what amounts to heresy, are in a state of apostasy.
