Spin-off from that other thread.

Here's who you voted for.

...last summer Trump stated that he isn't sure he has ever asked God for forgiveness, as he doesn't "bring God into that picture." He soon backtracked. Asking God for forgiveness is a central aspect of Christianity across the many traditions.

...Trump has stated that the United States should take out the families of terrorists: "...you have to take out their families, when you get these terrorists, you have to take out their families...

Trump appears to be a narcissist. This might work for reality television or real estate deals, but it is not a desirable trait for the President of the United States. The most important moral principle, according to Jesus in the gospels, is to love God with all of your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself.

It's weird how anyone could believe Trump has any sense of religion but he knew all he had to do was give up the illusion he does. If Trump was a women with five kids and three baby daddies, we'd see their true opinions about that situation.
 
Idk what part of Christianity says you must vote for a devote christian into political office... Or that you must choose a corrupt dispel of Satan woman instead......but hey, how would I know? I'm probably out of touch with that community

Christians vote for candidates who's political platform supports christian ideology. Conservative platforms are much more aligned with christian ideology than liberal platforms are.

Okay, LGBT is highly against biblical teachings, Abortion is definitely against biblical teachings, advocating for addictive drugs is against biblical teachings, I could go on (if you want me to).

Please do tell how liberal platforms are more aligned with christian ideology.

Please show where abortion is in the Bible. I'll wait.

And, as for LGBT, Christ said love thy neighbor and let ye without sin cast first stone. So, you fail with that defense of your bull**** argument.

Ill walk you through the motions if you wish. Telling me its not without a reason is anti-debate.

Support of LGBT, Abortion, Gay marriage etc... all conflict with the bible's teachings.

Why did God (in the bible) Destroy Sodom and Gomorrah?

"Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations." This means in the christian faith, people are people. They are individuals that can be known by God and consecrated (declare sacred) before birth. Killing unborn babies is surely murder.

If you're going O/T, you're not referring to Christians. Unless, of course, you condone killing children who misbehave and a man beating his many wives and all that stuff about owning slaves. So, in short, you are saying believers in the rules written in the Old Testament can be Republicans. :roll:

And, that I believe is true.

He's better than baby-killing Democrats who promote all manner of sexual abomination and evils. Its better to have Trump who is religion-neutral then to have the despicable evil that Democrats offer.

Okay, lets go new testament.
Romans 1:26-27
26 For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural,
27 and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, amen with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.

Or even 1 Timothy 1:9-10
9 realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers

10 and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching,

Next verse signifies the importance of pro-life.

Luke 1:41-44
And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, and she exclaimed with a loud cry, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! And why is this granted to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For behold, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.

I suspect you have no idea what makes a good Christian. Hint: voting for a narcissist would not be it.

You list "sexual immorality." You are aware that you voted for a twice divorced adulterer who brags about grabbing women's ******s. Correct?

No, you are wrong. IT is in fact saying that Jeremiah was told by god that he was destined from his conception to be a prophet. It has nothing to do with the chrstiain faith, or abortion. It strictly has to do with the claim from Jeremiah that God told him he had a destiny. Nothing beyond that.

Read post number 14. There is plenty more verses you can try to reject. "before I formed YOU in the womb I knew you". The bible states that people are people even within the womb (example Jeremiah). Stop lying.

And, that passage is specifically talking about Jeremiah You are trying to read into the passage that what is not there, and taking things out context. In fact, your list quite often takes things out of context.

You're not arguing it very well. Maybe you should reread the title.

Well obviously one side disagrees with me. It is not a place for Christians to judge specific people's actions, but voting in support of things like gay marriage, or abortion etc... are not Christian. You cannot judge a gay person, but you can vote against gay marriage.
