A word to professing Christian democrats & meltowns over Trump's Presidential win
Reposted
Q: I am a democrat, feeling distressed and have been crying all day today. I don't want to fight about politics.
I’m very scared and feel there is an evil in the USA. How am I to cope? I want to find comfort from like minded individuals over losing the election to Trump.
A: Are you seeking to follow your self focused feelings, or are you submitting to God, and who in his soverignty placed Trump in office? Who do you follow? Self or God? Why not submit to God and not have a rebellious heart? Why seek after those who only agree with you?
Your mindset right now is slightly similar to how many Republicans felt for 12 years (since 2009) since Obama, (and even during the 4 years of Trumps first presidency where Republicans were angry that he was attacked by the left daily & at every turn, [and because of that he was limited to what he could accomplish for America; though he did a lot]. And every since Biden administration as they continually perpetrated evil against him non stop. Also, how do you think he felt being politically attacked, wrongly judged and mistreated for 8 years, falsely slandered regularly, and had attempts on his life carried out?). But for Christian Republican and Independents, we know God is in control and we pray for Good and God's will. That's where we all need to be in mindset over anything in our nation any year, election time, decade etc.
I have been a Christ follower for 39 years. I follow the teachings of Scripture and strive to live Christlike. I do have compassion for you, but we mature believers do need to educate, exhort, admonish, counsel and encourage those who are in need of it. It helps you grow and follow the truly righteous path, not your way and the way of the World.
We are to lovingly confront error and sin of believers. It is for their good. We are told to counsel, and educate those in the church. I hope the below will really help you. If you profess to be a believer you will look into all of this with an open mind seeking like a Berean to get educated, regardless if the outcome being opposite what you thought the truth was.
Too many Democrats just believe whatever deception and delusion and slander thats spew on tv and online by liberal run organizations, while the citizen never looks into these things and just easily believe it hook line and sinker. They dont look into truth of a matter and believe lies like Eve in Eden. Discernment and true research is important. (Esp looking into these things from non liberalization sources, including gptchat). They also sin by allowing emotions to overrun their minds instead of objective truth & facts
Many in convos the day after election results noted that if you are Christian there really isn’t any other to choose than Republican in USA; a Republic nation. That is for many reasons... the top one being upon examining it its as close to biblical Christian morals and values as possible today.
We mature believers are to give grace to new and weak believers who haven't learned or grown in the faith enough to understand all the areas that politics touch from a biblical Godward perspective. They def need to be in the Word and grow, and many are very derelict in that today, to their shame. But not everyone is mature in the faith yet, at the same time, to guide you into that. We want to share info with you and warn you to not hold a worldview that isnt biblical, be open to God correcting misinformation you believed and to change your mind, heart and thoughts to align with Scripture, and hold to that truth once you've been enlightened to it.
Its fine to talk Religion and Politics, but it needs to be done civily, in love, patience, truth focused on facts, and how we do it, needs to be done in a godly manner that matters, not letting our emotions control us or run wild. We cannot be delusional but need to be factual and civil; something the MZ Gen is very lacking in. It is a sin professing believers need to kill & conquer to live rightly.
You need to keep your eyes on Jesus, your hearts and mind in Scripture, to live in holiness and worldview God has shown us in Scripture and via His character, so to can be more like Christ. Being eternity minded not focused on the temporary world here. Kamala is not your Savior, Obama wasnt, Biden wasn't either. Jesus is.
Yes its very important our nation stops going down the path of evil that Liberalism has brought to us in last 30 years, in some areas even as far back as 60s too, but tomorrow isn't guaranteed for any of us and our focus needs to be on Jesus and the Gospel being spread. Loving others and focusing on eternally important things.
Use this as a time in the Word, realign to Scripture, grow in the faith, and trust God. He puts people in power for our good, His will, and know that from Obama to Biden, Christians feel that was a judgment on us, as was liberal leaders in States where many are Conservative God-fearing believers were/are stuck under the evil of their reign. God still will sort it all out regardless. Also, Trump was used by God in the past to bless this nation, just pray God will use him to bless America, people here now and into the future. Preserving our nation, Constitution, rights all forged by believing forefathers is good and important so we can go freely unto our communities, states and nation to proclaim Christ, and teach morals and character values that train up a people to thank God and go the way of righteousness without threat of jail like in UK or death in other countries without free religion and liberty.
Trust God.
I do exhort you that if you hate Trump and go with that mindset then you need to examine your salvation... haters are murderers Jesus said, and no one who hates someone is saved... the Redeemed - Love, show Grace, pray to bless and etc. God lives in us so only love radiates from us.
Don't follow the world, follow Christ. Not the idolatrous version of him the liberals have, but the true one and his true teachings, and the truth of what Scripture teaches in all matters.
Take a true look into American politics, and what you need to understand:
1. Have you deeply looked at what God has told us in Scripture about the Christian worldview and it's incompatibility with wicked unsaveds worldview?
2. Have you looked into what believers need to understand about the current topics of today related to the above?
3. Have you looked into what the Democrat party believes, their agendas, and what theyve done to America since Obama? How does that compare/align at all with what Scripture teaches?
3a. List out everything the Democrat party has stood on, for, voted, passed laws about, at what expense to others their deeds have caused, etc and compare it truthfully and factually against Scripture with what God revealed there as the author [God] intended not by the revisionist squishy idolatry of so much of so called Christianity.
3b. Did you know the Obama DNC convention ran as anti-God; officially got rid of God from the convention platform? Did you know Kamalas DNC convention happily showed theyre the party of murder; loves murder and doesnt value the lives God was created in the womb so much that they purposely brought in abortion trucks and celebrated murdering 25 babies at the convention??
3c. What about the 20+ million unvetted illegals they poured into USA in Biden and Kamalas administration burdening our nation; causing many crimes, rapes, murders and human trafficking happened, as well as giving away citizens money ($13K a month to every one of them, free housing, free medical, free everything) to them? All Democrat voters are responsible for that. These things are wrong and no other nation would do that. Israel had borders and protected its people. They put Israeli's first. Jesus even turned away entitled people seeking freebies; they wanted free food and free healing, not what was right. This nation is so crime ridden today (and bad govt has trampled on all citizens since letting the illegals from 100 countries just come in without vetting thrm or us getting a good benefit from it, and it has greatly harmed Citizens in a myriad of ways, including evil crimes committed, as well as bad governing coming from it). Its appauling that people are voting for anything but Trump when they need to vote for who is best for the nation based on legitimate reasons. The President is the most powerful in the world! It's a serious vote for a serious job, it's not class president!! There's seriously too much at stake to be playing popularity games. People 18 to 25 really need to deep dive to understand the real issues in order to use critical thinking skills and common sense ... or just don't vote. Stop running America (and lives of 320 million people here) by your petty ridiculous reasons for voting.
* We can't have a bumbling decrepit Biden in office nor a incompetent kakling Kamala in that position, we need a real leader who gets stuff done, Trump already has proved he gets it done; for 4 years, even wuth the democrat attacks and endless lawsuits to prevent him accomplishing much. Biden hid in the basement in Obama era, and Kamala did too in Biden era. She was in charge of the border and is the reason 20 million illegals came here unvetted during Covid era. Biden was a mess and people were too distracted by covid lockdowns, cautions, and burying 1.2 million family members and trying to afford the inflation he brought, to notice his presidency much, (besides he was a puppet, and slept thru the last part of his presidency when he shouldve resigned). When that kind of stuff goes on, (and was going on), people aren't paying attention and that's when evil does it's deeds.
4. The "evil" in the USA in politics isn't the side/agenda you think it is. Have you listed out the beliefs and platform, the bills, laws, good done, and moral upholding of our nation of the Republican party, and how it align with Scripture and America's Christian heritage? Go back to early Ameruca, or from Regan to George Bush...and look at Trump's past and current administration & policies, and what hes done for all Americans, including poc. I guarantee you will be shocked when you examine them to the lefts... and if you compare it to Scripture in truth.
5. It's time to seriously, actually, dive into & know the Bible, let the Holy Spirit teach you, turn from false teachers and false views, and live out God's truth. Its time to conquer your emotions, focus on facts & truth, align your understanding to Scripture & to a holy mindset, and embrace the biblical worldview. Its time to mature in the faith.
May God open your eyes, lead you to understand and embrace these truths.
If you cling to your current views then it shows the god of this world has blinded you and you are not seeking truth nor the righteous path.
I pray you choose to examine these thing, and to submit to God, and the biblical Christian worldview.
6. Pray for the leaders God has put into their positions. Pray for good, to bless them, and God's will to be done.
7. Do not allow yourself to wallow in or even have sinful emotions, including negative thoughts, hate, bitterness, unforgiveness, unrighteetc, judgments, segregation, divisiveness, etc, and go walk following after Christ, becoming more Christlike as you focus more on the eternal matters.
God bless
