Over the years, I’ve been inclined to believe that most white evangelicals do not see Trump as Savior (though some do)… but many do admire him in an idolatrous way that betrays their core fidelity to Christ.

They find Trump’s aggressive rhetoric, crushing policies, flamboyant greed, and vulgar pride much more enticing than the compassionate, merciful, sacrificial love of Jesus.

The pushback he got after this post reaffirms that paradox.

However, as disturbing as it is… this is also very apparent. Trump does in fact view himself as Savior… and certainly Trump admires Trump more than Christ…
even if some evangelicals are still deciding which master they will serve.

Follow Jesus. Not Trump.

I think the hardest part of the political climate right now is realizing how many people around me are actually evil. Not stupid. Not misinformed. Just blatantly enjoying and relishing in the suffering of other human beings.

America died the day before her birthday. @POTUS @SenateGOP made sure of it. The #BigBeautifulBill was the final shove of the knife into the heart of #Liberty and #Justice. #happyfourthofjuly #Happy4thofJuly #happy4thofjuly2025 #independenceday2025

Tomorrow is the 4th of July! When Americans celebrate no longer being ruled by distant oligarchs, elites, entrenched bureaucrats, those who believe they are our "betters" or the super rich who believe the law doesn't apply to them...oh...never mind....

Jesus didn’t say:

If they’re immigrants, deport them.
If they’re queer, correct them.
If they’re Muslim, reject them.

Jesus said:

If they’re hungry, feed them.
If they’re sick, care for them.
If they’re strangers, welcome them.

Chat, when is the part where the other 50% of our country stops living in delulu land and realize today that checks and balances are no more? Asking for a friend.

If you are upset about Iran killing civilians but not upset about Israel killing civilians, check your heart.

Every child in Tehran and Gaza is just as precious as every child in Jerusalem or New York.

Every human being is made in the image of God.

Killing kids is evil no matter what flag you wrap it in.

There it is. Trump confirms what we've said all along - he's been protecting Putin this entire time.

@PastorMark You need to chill out. You're giving the rest of us pastors a real difficult time with your poor theology.

So...@rfkJrHealth24 ... It's WILD to me you propose a national registry of kids and ppl with autism...but we don't have to register guns? I'm a 2nd amendment fan, so don't come at me. This is absurd. #rfk

25 March is the date that J.R.R. Tolkien chose for the day when the One Ring was destroyed. It is the traditional date of both the Annunciation to Mary and Jesus's crucifixion. It is the date which marks the triumph of life over the forces of evil and death.

@jonnybernthal thank you for being my favorite #punisher ! Keep being you, brother!

@garpike28 Then it's time to start over.

If two adults working full-time making good money can't afford to buy groceries, well after trimming non-essential waste, and you still can't provide, it isn't bc people are lazy, want to get paid too much, or whatever. It's bc the system is broken.

“Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth take their stand, and the rulers conspire together against the Lord and his Anointed One…The one enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord ridicules them.”
