I am a true Christian believer and have been for as long as I can remember. However, I am so befuddled over our recent president elect. I realize he a registered conservative, but just as many of you are, I am so indifferent about all of this. He stands for so many values that do not belong within our Christian faith. What are we to do when facing situations like this? Are we to support such a man who claims to worship our God or pray for something else?? I am so confused why God would have allowed this tragedy to have happened.

Trump is Cyrus (Isaiah 45)----the wrecking ball---he was raised up to preserve our country-----he supports faith---example---the repeal of the Johnson Amendment---giving freedom of speech to pastors---he will tear up a lot of stuff that needs to go---Trump is not the Savior----I posted a thread a few minutes ago----TRUMP*********And the Coming Revival-----I will also post prophecies----and other information about this election...

No way on this Earth is any person who aligns perfectly with Christian values ever going to be President. Not only because those values are completely at odds with relating to other people in other countries in the world, but also because Christian values change so frequently that there will always be something that upsets someone who will complain that they are being punished by God for having a POTUS such as that.

The President is a human being, just like you and me. He puts his pants on one leg at a time just like you do. Judge him on his actions and use that as the yardstick to measure him. Any other arbitrary standards you hold him to are going to get you nothing but disappointment.

*Yes, I fully expect all of you who read this to misinterpret it, read into it things that aren't there, and otherwise get your knickers in a twist. That's your issue to confront. Good luck.*

You don't have to support him if you don't want to. No, I'm not befuddled at all. What are the values that you believe that he has that are contrary to the Christian faith? Glad to have you join us. Welcome to CC.

Let the kings of this world take command of their kingdoms.. Don't get all worked up about their status with God.. Concentrate on serving the real KING of Kings and LORD of Lords.. That way when the kings of this world show themselves to be corrupt and deceivers your heart will not be wounded.. Don't expect much from the kings of this world and you will not be disappointed or shocked when they betray you and deliver nothing to you...

This thread is much more appropriate for the News forum. This forum here is strictly for introducing yourself, which you haven't even bothered to do yet.. Welcome to CC.

It really doesn't matter whether you support him or not.

All you're required to do, as Christian, is follow the laws.

Hillary Clinton endorsed Barack Obama’s policy of forcing girls to shower with boys at school, if the boys said they wanted to be girls. Few things are more horrible than that.

The press hates Donald Trump and does everything they can to make him look bad. I suspect he is a great man.
