people who are walking in sin ARENT SAVED.
In light of the fact that Trump has announced he’s running for office again in 2024, I must warn anyone against following what he or the evangelical leaders say and instead follow what God says in the Bible.
What the right has done with Donald Trump is completely backwards From what the Bible says to do.
It says to judge believers (1 cor 5:12-13)- not unbelievers- and to put out from among believers anyone who refuses to walk orderly and stop sinning.
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers and sisters, to keep away from every believer who is idle and disruptive and does not live according to the teaching you received from us
2 thes. 3:6
11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people. 12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you.” (1 cor 5:11-13)
This is so that they might be saved.
5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.
1 cor 5:5
and finally
And by this we know that we have come to know him, if we keep his commandments. Whoever says “I know him” but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and cthe truth is not in him, but whoever dkeeps his word, in him truly ethe love of God is perfected. By this we may know that we are in him: whoever says he gabides in him hought to walk in the same way in which he walked.
1 john 2:3-6
Which means that people who are walking in sin
ARENT SAVED.
ANYONE WHO CONSISTENTLY DOES NOT ACT LIKE THEY’RE SAVED ISNT SAVED. Nor are they Christian. They are liars and pretenders and hypocrites.
Jesus said repeatedly “By their fruits you will know them.”
But the lies that you don’t have to practice what you preach AND that you can go right on sinning with no repentance as long as you BELIEVE in Jesus have so completely infiltrated the church in America that they have finally accepted an Antichrist as president.
James says The demons believe - and tremble. And that faith alone will not save you. (James 2:9, 24)
Jesus preached a gospel of REPENTANCE. Which literally means to TURN from your sin. And then you must turn TO Jesus in Faith. (Mark 1:15) Repentance and faith in Jesus IS the Gospel. And anyone who goes against that is an Antichrist. Literally against Christ.
Trump is an Antichrist. And so is anyone who blindly follows him and believes and teaches whatever he says.
I don’t say lightly that Trump is an Antichrist. Anyone who denies Jesus or his word by their words or actions as defined in 1 John 2:18 in an Antichrist.
Do you think that someone who lies is an Antichrist? Jesus said they are. He literally said that liars are sons of satan. (John 8:44-47)
Trumps followers are so deceived that they literally can’t see that they’re following someone who goes completely Against everything that Jesus said to do.
The Bible says to not appear evil in any way so as to give a good report among the gentiles (those who aren’t believers). (1 Peter 2:12),
Do you really think screaming about the pagans and gentiles behavior is going to win anyone to Jesus?
Does Trump care what lies pour out of his mouth? Does he care if his followers take up arms to overthrow the government? Does he follow what Jesus said to do and love his enemies and have faith in God? Does he act holy and righteous or does he grope women and tout his own name instead of the name of Jesus? Does he care if his followers take up arms to overthrow the government? Of course not. If he did he’d be repentant, not running for office AGAIN. It’s a wonder he hasn’t been struck down dead by lightening.
(1 cor. 5:1-13) (Ephesians 5:3-14) and
As for those who persist in sin, rebuke them in the presence of all, so that the rest may stand in fear
All say to reject a professing BELIEVER who continues in any blatant sin.
Jesus said this:
“If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector.
I think two attempted impeachment’s counts as taking it to the “assembly”. Which is what the word church means.
And yet the evangelical leaders put this paragon of evil forward as the leader of the Christian Right?
They certainly weren’t looking to the requirements in the Bible for leaders:
3 Here is a trustworthy saying:Whoever aspires to be an overseer desires a noble task. 2 Now the overseer is to be above reproach, faithful to his wife, temperate (meaning not bad tempered), self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, 3 not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. 4 He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full respect. 5 (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?) 6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil. 7 He must also have a good reputation with outsiders, so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil’s trap.
1 Timothy 3
If you think Donald Trump fits that description you need to get on your knees and ask God for wisdom and to have your eyes opened. Right now.
Trump and the evangelical leaders have literally done the exact opposite of what the Bible says to do.
Which tells you that they aren’t truly Christians or believers at all.
They are wolves in sheep’s clothing.
(Matt 7:25)
They are Tares. (Matthew 13:24–43.)
Planted by the enemy satan to discredit the Lord Jesus and his true followers.
They put evil for good and good for evil. Woe to them.
20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
Isaiah 5:20
Go read the whole chapter. It is chilling.
People who put evil for good will not go Unpunished. The Bible promises they will all be brought to light - and to the judgment seat. (2 cor. 5:10)
The name of the Lord is blasphemed among unbelievers because of these people and what they condone and what they put up as an example. (Romans 2:24)
We are to follow Jesus. Not a man. And if that man oozes evil and no one who follows him cares, what does that tell you about those people?
I must stand up and say this. Dietrich Bonhoeffer would be rolling over in his grave. JESUS would be rolling over in his grave. Except He’s at the right hand of the father and He knows exactly what’s going on. And He’s just waiting for the order from the Father to come and take the righteous. Not the wicked. And the righteous are known by what they DO. (Matthew 25:31-40)
I don’t want to argue with anyone. I will not argue in fact. I was called to warn . And warn I must. (Ezekiel 3 & 33)
Pray about all of this. Pray and see if what I’m saying is true. I’m no liberal. I’m a Christian. A conservative. And a ministers wife.
Jesus wasn’t political at all. In fact he said this “My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place.” John 18:36
Jesus knew that mans kingdom is the same as satans kingdom. He never met Ceasar and he never as far as we know even tried to. When they tried to take him by force and make him king he slipped through the crowd. (John 6:15)
Jesus’ kingdom is not of this world. And Jesus said that everyone who is perfectly trained by their master will be like their master. (Luke 6:40) So we are to be like him in this and every other matter.
God can keep us from deception which is all around (Matt 24) and show us The Truth. Jesus said that HE is the way the truth and the life.
Are you listening to the worlds truth? Or Gods truth?
Pray about it.
