Dear friends, have you seen the latest campaign video by Donald Trump? It goes by the title, "So God Created Donald Trump" and even as I write this, it makes my heart heavy. It would seem our good friend is applying a bit of scriptural creativity, so to speak, drawing from the beloved words of John 3:16 from our NIV Bible, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son..."
This campaign video, however, takes a dodgy turn, suggesting that Donald Trump is the shepherd for all mankind. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't our dear Lord Jesus Christ the true shepherd? 😕
Ah, but this is just our friend's usual style, isn't it? Seemingly using every trick in the book to persuade those of us in the right wing to cast our votes his way. Apparently, he's been sent to "make America great again," but between you, me and the Sunday morning congregation, this doesn't sit quite right with me. 😔
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly a cheerleader for the democrats myself. But using the Holy Bible and our Christian faith to steer himself into a presidential position? That's a bit rich, don't you think? 😒
And here's the kicker, friends. Look at how this individual speaks about women, the hurtful insults he hurls, his evident lack of compassion for the less fortunate among us... I've got to tell you, I'm not seeing much of the 'fruit of the Spirit' in him, are you? 🤔
We are called to demonstrate love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). Is our friend showing these signs of true belief in Jesus? Or is he merely using the Christian faith to promote his own agenda? 🙁
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this, dear friends. Please, drop a comment below and let's have ourselves a good old-fashioned chinwag. Is this gentleman a Christian? Should he be producing such videos, where he portrays himself as a messiah-like figure? I'll be waiting to hear from you! God bless! 🙏😊 #DonaldTrump
